[QUOTE="dun, post: 124682, member: 34"] It mostly, IMO, depends on your market. If you sell at the salebarn and don;t plan on retaining any heifers the a true terminal YG type sire would work. Limo, Gelbvieh, Simmenthal of the extreme WW/YW variety with decent calving ease and no concern to daughters calving ease, disposition, mature frame size, marbeling or milk. If you'll retain ownership either partial or complete, or sell to a quality grade grid, and won;t retain any heifers, you could go with a terminal Angus bull. The trick comes in if you may retain any heifers. Then you need to look at a compromise between the daughters calving ease, disposition, mature frame size and milk, and you may have a concern for marbeling depending on your marketing. dun [/QUOTE]
