[QUOTE="Beef11, post: 486539, member: 2705"] The key is to know what you have. If your cows have the genetics to produce Choice prime calves on a reasonable amount of feed then go for it. If you are in a Hot climate and have alot of ear in your herd or maybe a strong continental influence market them on the lb basis as opposed to a quality basis. Cattle feeders will behave differently in different situations, Low corn prices will allow cattle to have more finish and still be profitable. High corn prices and iffy genetics and they will sell them and try and hit select with no thought of the choice premium. [/QUOTE]
