[QUOTE="Hawk, post: 23624, member: 114"] I guess the answer to you question depends entirely upon what your goals are. People that raise show calves generally will spend any amount of money if it will give them an advantage in the show ring (whether it is strictly within the rules or not). If your goal is to maximize your profits by raising a good calf for the least cost, you look at things differently. I cannot control the market price that I get when I sell calves, I can only control my costs. Sale price minus costs equal profit. I will leave it to someone else who is into shows to advise you on your original question. I am all in favor of improving your animals, as long as it improves your bottom line. I have no interest in upgrading the herd just to impress the neighbors. [/QUOTE]
