  Looking for suggestions on what Revalor implant, as there are several I should use in this scenario. Revalor bc I have the gun.
  Have a steer weighing 980lbs. He's sound with 102 days to go for our terminal show. He's maxed out @ 24lbs feed (Show Rite Throttled Up) with 2 big scoops of cottonseed hulls and 16oz Power Fuel all split in a morning and evening feeding. Typically wouldn't implant at this stage but I think we're going to need a bump. Have 3 jackpot shows between now and our final show. Daughters last year in so trying to make it count. Our normal ADG with this much traveling is not going to happen. Looking to weigh in somewhere around 1350 June 2nd. Thanks for any suggestions

I'm no feed expert but I would say cut back or even get rid of the cottonseed they are just filler and up his feed to 30lbs. Cause him weighing 980 and eating 3% of his body weight he should be eating right at 30lbs. Hope that helps

I appreciate the response, makes sense to me. We use it as it was suggested to aid with spring of the rib and to lower the gut.
