Bull Buying Values
CLIFFORD MITCHELL
The Cattleman
Your bull supplier is sort of your partner in your cow-calf herd. Price is important, but money can’t buy respect, reputation, loyalty and support.
Cowboy folklore depicts the campfire as the gathering place for many outfits that were on the trail or out gathering and branding. Laughter and even singing were signs the trail-weathered veterans were just as good at having a good time as they were with a rope and iron. The camaraderie built amongst crews often meant the difference between successful ventures or failures. Drovers put their lives in each others’ hands and a firm handshake sealed the deal.
