Those ones have been crossed out of my catalog.DejaVu said:What is with the majority of angus bulls and their hollowed out backs and goofy pointy tail heads. :roll:
Hay Feeder said:Went to a consignment bull sale with a huge crowd and a wide range of bulls that sold
A buyer for every different kind of bull there
Not many buyers seemed to know the breeding or herds except the ones that got there knowledge from a AI directory
It was interesting watch people choosing a couple of certin EPD was their only
Selection factor
The better end of bulls sure could of brought more and the poorer end bulls sure should of bought a heck of alot less
Am seeing bull buyer sure lacking judging experience
Maybe the fact of taking livestock judging classes out if FFA
4-H and some colleges on a national basis is taking its toll
On selling the better end of the cattle
Watching someone pay 3,800 for bulls that would of not made a good steer
From a bull seller that just decided to get in the bull selling business this year is disturbing to me.

I really like this statement Hay Feeder and think its very accurate. Those folks probably had a footnote in the catalog saying something about their "program". It seems to me there are a lot more bull sellers than breeders in today's world.

Not part of this group- But even before the group was formed these bloodlines were pretty much the direction we had decided to go with our cows to try and get rid of some problems and go back to the good old maternal angus cow...
