For lots, I just did a sort for sires and weaning weights. The sire with the most sons starts the lots. The highest adjusted weight is the first one in the group. I put all my first calf heifers in one group then the rest of the cows in another group. I enter in what the scale says to AAA and they send me back adjusted weights and ratios. Lot 1 is the highest adjusted weight bull of the Holy Waters but he isn’t the highest ratio because of the age of the dam. If you ever want to give me a call on why I choose some bulls over others, please feel free. I don’t want to throw any breeder under the bus. There is just certain reasons I wont use a lot of the hot sires. I try to keep my herd a no holes herd. Seems like with a lot of the hot bulls you end up breeding their daughters to fix their weaknesses. I don’t want my cattle to have weaknesses. Family operation. Just two of us here now. Aubrey helps as much as she can and we plan on working cattle around her schedule so she can help. Family Operated. Traditions Begin. Legacies Left.
