Has anyone had any experience or know about leasing bulls?  I am wanting a fall lease a good bull to produce club calves forthe Texas market.  I would prefer a black or a red bull or something that might click with the shorthorn cows as I have along with the black cattle.  The questions I have is the cost?  Do you need to insure the bull?  How willing are these guys to lease out some of these bulls?

Lautner leases a bunch of bulls down to Texas.  You won't get the top-tier bulls like Heat Wave down here but there are plenty of bulls with names you'll recognize that he leases out.

Last I heard the rates were in the $1,500/month range.

I am assuming you just call him to see who and what he leases?
