[QUOTE="Travlr, post: 1736166, member: 42463"] Do you know what you want your steers to look like? Do you have cows that look consistent? If your cows are all over the place then your bull has a lot of work to do. If you have cows with a consistent look then you can choose a bull based on their faults. I like long, meaty bulls with just enough leg to get from here to there in groomed pastures. I want a bull that looks like the steers I will be getting. I also like to see the bull's mother if possible. I look at her for what I like in replacement heifers. That includes docility. Stats are important, but I've seen lightly muscled, big belly bulls that gained weight fast and weighed a lot and threw the same kind of calves that were docked at the sale barn. [/QUOTE]
