[QUOTE="Stickney94, post: 1632970, member: 37941"] Hoover Dam is sire that does a lot of things well. Not extremes on EPDs, moderate size, good maternals, attractive animals, and from my experience very good end product merit. It's wise not to generalize, but if you look at GAR marketing they are definitely looking at end product merit. Not as familiar with SAVs marketing, but I tend to think they market on function first and foremost. Those are just two different ways to market. If you sell feeder cattle you may like SAVs genetics because they create attractive feeder cattle and you don't care how the animal grades. If you retain ownership and sell on the grid perhaps GAR genetics are appealing. As Ebenezer says, you raise cattle long enough you will learn to appreciate a cow that stays healthy, raises good calves, and gets bred on time over and over. [/QUOTE]
