[QUOTE="redcowsrule33, post: 1847836, member: 8629"] I’m suffering a case of information overload these days. Used to select on phenotype alone, [I]maybe [/I]you knew the birthweight and could trust the word of the breeder about calving ease. Now we have genomics, EPDs, and scanning results as well as individual performance. I’m not complaining, I’m an information person. I’m interested to know how others use all this in their selection process. Do you give some things more weight than others and why? I have always looked at the data and ranked on paper, then went blind into the bulls and ranked on phenotype, then compared the two. I’m just not sure how much weight to put into an individual scan.
