[QUOTE="Gators Rule, post: 825848, member: 15587"] I've been reading this from about 40,000 feet up in the air in order to obtain a good viewpoint of the whole story. Here's the view from 40,000 feet. One person has great (and correct) cattle that get some feed for 5-6 months one time in the beginning of their life, allows their cows to calve in a barn, and then ushers them back out, feeds them winter baleage, takes some to purebred Simmi shows, blows the cow off when they get their picture taken......AND MAKES A PROFIT. Another person who is no longer in the cattle business (?) thinks it is sinful for a cow to know what a feed bucket is, would never let a cow calve in a protective environment (cow must be tough), doesn't believe in baleage, would not be caught dead at a purebred show (the sound of a blower apparently whizz's him off), and thinks all well conditioned cattle are fed in a feedlot.....AND IS NO LONGER IN THE BUSINESS. who is right, and who is wrong? p.m. Beefmaster are commercial cattle with registration papers. I'm not dissing them, but just stating that beefmaster are basically commercial cattle. [/QUOTE]
