[QUOTE="midTN_Brangusman, post: 1569242, member: 23858"] Focus on quality and not quantity. A high quality animal will sell good in any area. Cull hard by fertility, docility, structure and performance. Not sure your budget, a good way to start is embryos. Study the animals you like and want to produce. Don't buy a set of cows simply because they are registered. Customer satisfaction and bull guarantees are a must. Never sell a bull you wouldn't buy. Keep a sharp knife. I myself am in about our 4th year of converting to registered from commercial herd/stocker operation. All our cows are registered except the recip herd. Its not an easy road, but if you love the type of animals you produce, it sure makes it enjoyable. Good luck and best wishes. [/QUOTE]
