Where do you find the information that the semen companies don't put in their brochures?
They give you EPDs and a flowery narrative about all of the wonderful qualities of a potential sire but don't give you basic information such as; frame score, actual BW, WW or MW that could influence your decision.
Here is an example:
I also don't like it when they have pictures that are air brushed or knee deep in straw like this picture, it makes me wonder if there is something they don't want me to see. I know they're promoting sales and want everything to look perfect but can't we have a "commercial cattlemans semen company" that gives you all of the information and real-world pictures? I would even like to see a reviews section for each bull where producers can post their likes and dislikes on each bull, just like you review your purchases on Amazon. Okay I'm finished with my rant now.
