[QUOTE="SBMF 2015, post: 1842078, member: 39695"] You’re not wrong. They have to be sound. This time of year my mailbox is bombarded with angus sale catalogs. I can look at hundreds of bulls on paper before I ever go see one in person. For our part of the country the place I used to manage had a pretty good size cow herd. We kept between 8-12 bulls on hand depending on the time of year. For those big Char cross cows if their birth EPD didn’t start with a 3 I wouldn’t look any further. CED needed to be single digit at best. Those cows could handle 100+ birth weight calves unassisted. And it paid huge dividends on the other end when we sold the calves as fats. [/QUOTE]
