The younger the better. Sometimes though, castrating at weaning age is also the best because then you take advantage of the growth spurt that bull calves have over steer calves. But if this is a mature bull we're talking about here (which certainly sounds like it), don't cut him. Just send him to the slaughter house and get some beef off of him. The beef would/should be as good quality as getting it from an older grass-fed steer, depending on the bull's diet.
