Buying bulk beef

I am thinking of going in 25% on a cow. How much meat should I expect to get from this and what is a good price?

A cow produces about 500 pounds of beef, so around 125.
We bought half a cow several years ago...only reason that I know.

750-900 lbs hanging weight for a whole cow, $3-4/lb hanging weight. Typically loss about 25-30% once it's processed.

Most folks we know turn them into steers early. How to you handle the funky taste?

Usually buy half at the beginning of year. Have never had a problem with cuts or quality. This could be more of the company you use.
Company I use has list so you can chose what cuts you want, how thick you want steaks, and how much in the packages of ground beef.

I've thought about trying to do this. Anyone have any companies or entities they reccomend to work with? Preferably within 3 hrs of so of NOLA.
