where can you get any semen on this bull?  I'am beginning to think it must be for only the chosen too get it.  Sorta read something today on that order.

why not just buy a female/s?  then you don't have to breed a bunch of females to him and pick one's you want.

you can breed her faster, see if she can raise a calf, and then get a calf out her faster than using semen.

that's what i did.  probably cheaper and save time in the process.

there's no reason to get bothered about "limited edition", oops sooner semen not being available.

or else you could just buy some boomer semen, or buy a boomer female and not be stuck with bummer females and males.

don't see why people always seemed bothered by restricted semen.

My question with limited semen is are they mating all the best cows to him and thereby inflating the bulls value.  I like to see what a bull will do in a bunch of matings rather than matings out of the best of the cows.  Easy to skew the stats with selected matings.  Not that anyone would do that.  Or is the bull not producing enough semen for demand so they limit semen.  You never really know the reason or rational behind limiting semen.  I do agree with you premise of just buying a good heifer(s) rather than mating up a bunch.

Try GVC Maverick.  In my oppinion he is the best Sooner son out there.  We are very pleased with his calves at our place.
