[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 604288, member: 1682"] BW Avg. this year was 92 lbs for spring calves across both bulls and heifers. Range is 70 to 115 lbs. That is up from the last few years (~88 lbs), but down from about 5 years ago, where the average was right around 100 lbs. The heavy calves always do better, regardless of breed up here. I know purebred Angus guys that have average BW of 70 lbs...calve same date...and their calves are 100 to 150 lbs behind ours and Hereford neighbors come October. That difference also shows up between our light birth weight and heavier birthweight bulls. I say heavy birth weight for your comparison, because 90-95 lbs up here is considered moderate size. Over 110 lbs is heavy. The range would be 4 to 6.5, with the majority being in the 5 to 5.5 frame. :cowboy: [/QUOTE]
