[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1457702, member: 24565"] Question: are you breeding cows to bulls or cows to names? Names will be gone or changed in a month or year. You're stuck with the results until you pound them out if they are duds. Maternal is not high milk. High milk is production costs. First question you need to ask yourself (noted that you are tagged as a "beginner" with 6 posts), "What cows work best in my environment and management". That will eliminate about 95% of all potential purchased genetics and then find a sensible mentor to help you see the complete qualities of the cattle that work best in your environment. Most catalogs have cattle that will not work in normal situations. How have you found and identified flush quality cows yet ask folks like me about bulls to use? Just curious. When in doubt, use a son of your "best" cow. [/QUOTE]
