[QUOTE="gizmom, post: 1584702, member: 13402"] The association has requested that we (breeders) submit data. The foot scoring diagram is a very useful tool. All that being said we (our farm) has not turned data into the association, why you ask? Time just not enough hours in the day. We evaluate all of our cattle for claw and angle as well as depth of heel but jeeze Louise I just don’t have time to send all of it to the association. I have notes but in order to turn it in a lot of additional time and effort is required. I just don’t think everything can be solved by numbers, at some point you just have to be a cattleman. (Or woman). How does anyone find the time to turn in all the data the association is requesting? We quit turning in hip heights, heck all it takes is calf squatting in the chute and it can change your measurement by a frame score. I know the argument is it just takes a few more minutes but add a few minutes per calf when your working over a hundred head. Our crew consist of 4 broke down bodies that just can’t do it all. Rant over. Gizmom [/QUOTE]
