We are definetly going to line up some visits, there are a few others with bulls to sell right now. I always find bull buying a bit stressful because a bull has so much influence in your herd. It could propel you forward or set you back in one season. Thank you all for your input, and if there is any other tips please keep them coming. JIT, what you say about the experience thing is definetely true, I wish we had more of it. That is why a purebred breeder really needs to be honest, open and upfront with his customers, so people like us will want to come back and buy from them. The only reason we are considering this option instead of going back to our previous bull breeder is because we are a little worried that the bull we would like to buy for our herd in the spring will be way out of our price league. The market seems to be very strong right now. And I've mentioned it before but there are some really nice, helpful people in the shorthorn industry who we enjoy doing business with and I hope we can find a few like that in the black angus industry as well.
