The Angus conspiracy is brewing.

Branded,
Why do you seem to put people down with almost every post. You dont have to announce you are the smartest person in the room to get your point across. Lots of people that read this took a simple college statistics course or two. Alot of people are not comfortable bragging about what they did, do, or plan to do. The guys who do it everyday for a living are the ones you need to talk to and more importantly listen to.

Name a person that I have personally attacked, called names, disparaged their operation and so on? If someone is offended by what I say, they should look inward to see why it's bothering them. Perhaps they are not cutting the mustard. That's not my fault.

Again, who's bragging? It's not bragging if you are doing it. I spoke with Midland today and they were "all in" on the America sons I'm going to produce, should I be humble? It's never gotten me anywhere in life. I've seen where humble usually get's someone, the poorhouse.

You are also assuming that you know who I speak with every day, you might be surprised the calls I make in order to learn, and the calls that are picked up, and the time that certain breeders allot to me in order to help.

As for M-5, do you want me to post another "getting schooled" video? The last one was taken down, I suppose to defend your honor. I would have been more impressed if you had thick skin, left it up so everyone could have a good laugh, and move on.

You're an A$$. Good folks from all over the country will pay and stand in line all day to chisel that into your headstone. Nuff said. :???: :???: :???:

There are people questioning every aspect of the American Angus Association, questioning the very foundation of their data models, when these same people, I can almost guarantee, never got past elementary Algebra, can't even post a decent photo on CT, and are probably still using flip phones. When you have taken college-level statistical modeling courses as Ron and I have both done, then come talk to us, and we can have an informed conversation about EPDs. Until then, fly without instruments if you want, and watch out for vertigo.

There should be MBA level courses on this breed and what they have achieved. For those that don't know MBA stands for "Massive Bank Account"

With that said,

While you guys keep second guessing everything about Angus. I will keep pumping them out.

Here is a calf out of Connealy Capitalist. Momma is almost a ton.

Life is great, huh?

Life is great....
Let me first post my credentials.
I have a high school diploma and a year from a technical school in auto and diesel mechanics.
I have been self employed for over 25 years. I've never missed a payroll. I employee most of my immediate family. I can fix most anything or I can afford to buy new. My cattle make money without me pimping them and being a be nice for a outfit that I wish could be me.
My pictures and my post are not full of college level thesis because I don't sit around with my computer in one hand and myself in the other like some here apparently do. I give my opinions based on real experience of mine. Not regurgitation of something I've heard or read.
Now when you get up off your knees from the front of SAV brass and get your face wiped off.
Why don't you come school me........
Life is great

well there's my laugh for the day!

You seem to assume other people want to have momma cows that weigh a ton, I'm trying to get myself away from that, my heaviest are about 1800 and I'm down to only 2 of them, Most are 13-1400 lbs and that's where I find my best efficiency is for my conditions.

Ya, we've probably had more ton plus cows than Branded has ever seen. We learned our lesson and have progressed a long ways from those days. I guess everyone has to learn their own lessons.

There called blow hards, the only ones they impress is themselves, but they do like listening to themselves talk, sad thing is there not smart enough to know that no one else really cares.

post all you want , does not bother in the least . I know your kind and deal with a special few just like you on occasion and have attend a few funerals where the entire attendance could have rode together because people couldn't stand the one in the casket. There will come a time where you will wish you could trade the money for peace and comfort.

Back during biblical times, sometimes they had paid mourners. Think about that for a second. I guess if you were dead you wouldn't care, but that would suck! Hope I can at least scrape up a few pallbearers :lol2:

I dropped out of college with one more semester to go for my mechanical draftsmen bachelors degree, so I could run the family farm.

Guess I'll shut up now, about the more intellectual things in life.

ahh maybe the people that are successful without ever going to College.. I had to go back two posts to find someone you insulted. Just because you didnt call them by name doesnt mean you didnt insult them.

Don't forget me. I still use a flip phone.

Thank you, I've always wondered.

I attempted to post about my experience with trying to build a registered Angus herd yesterday but lost it when posting. I thought at the time some will dismiss and not believe or say that I should have bought from so and so or spent $5000 per heifer, but was going to post it anyways. Without going through all that detail again I will just say that I like the Angus breed even if the massive marketing campaign helped to loose me loose money. I had always believed that Angus was a problem free breed for the most part. After having Angus bulls for 20 years and probably 25 registered Angus females I have had as many or more issues with them than anything else. My major issues were feet and fertility and I assure anyone that I am not making this up. I have witnessed tremendous disposition issues within the breed as well and tried hard to not bring anything problematic in. People will say oh he's just a small time hobby farmer or sour grapes but I know that what we had cannot be the only instances or maybe it's just my lot in life.
We had a freak event of Hydrops with one of our cows she was Angus but that was irrelevant as breed had nothing to do with it. It was during the early goings of DD so I wondered but vet said it wasn't and it was extremely rare, lucky me.
The thing is I have had issues with all breeds none are superior I don't care what anybody says. I am planning on retaining some Angus heifers this year so again I don't think I hate the breed. I have also talked up CAB and still do I think it is a good product and if we did not have our own beef that is what we would use.
I will shut up now and go back to my miserable uncollege educated existence. Actually for the record it had been a hard road but not worshipping Angus isn't the cause. Just as having Herefords isn't the end of the road. Oh and a longhorn in the mix gets lots of attention from passers by. Life is good it's all in perspective. Money isn't everything.

I figure the majority on this board that have a PHD they dont brag about it.

I figure you are right. I am probably one of the few that don't have a college degree, yet I have friends that have doctorate degrees but you would never know it unless they were asked specifically.

Im willing to wager I have more PHDs than anyone here.

When you been in the Angus business for 70 years and you've made it all the way up to 50 mama cows, you must be doing something right.

You should have majored in math.

BH I'm not sure why you have such disrespect for anyone who has a different view about a subject than you do.Math was one of my best subjects and I did very well. With that said I was always taught to use it along as a tool and to include real life experiences. I was also a mechanical specialist. I learned many times the results you see in the real world varies from what you see in the classroom, lab, ect. That is what many of us have experienced with EPD's. Instead of doing field trials at least some of the associations are using the breeders herds as the proving ground. Meanwhile they provide this inaccurate information to the commercial breeder. Many times it is very misleading. The results we experience have nothing to do with advanced math. In the real world we see the results in assisted births, weaning weights, yearling weights, milk production, ect. And in the end in profit or loss depending on how an animal performed. We don't need a complicated chart or mathematical formula to tell us if something works or is beneficial. We have the real life results.
