Depends on what you plan to do with him and how much and what quality grass you have and the type and quality of the hay you are feeding. If you have only warm season grass going into winter and grass hay then you don't have much energy or protein in that ration, on the other hand, if you have plenty of annual rye grass and good alfalfa hay then you have an excellent ration in its self. If you will sell him as a feeder in 6 months or so you want frame and cheap gain, if you are going to slaughter him yourself in another year to year and a half then you want cheap growth followed by a finishing period on high energy diet. If you have low quality grass but high quality hay fed free choice he should easily gain over a pound per day this winter then really kick off when spring grass comes out and gain 2-3 pounds per day where you can get him to around 1000 pounds before having to feed grain and supplement.
