[QUOTE="simme, post: 1850801, member: 40418"] I looked today at the epd's for progeny of the 38 year old 600U bull. The simmental database only displays the most recent 500 animals in a search. The most recent 500 progeny from 600U go back to 2006 (when the bull was only 20 years old). So those last 500 progeny cover 18 years. I sorted those by WW epd. Guess which 600U calf born in the last 18 years has the highest WW epd of them all. Yes, Kenny owns the highest WW epd 600U calf in that group. Also the highest Carcass Weight epd in that group. And 600U was a very popular sire - appearing in thousands of simmental pedigree. [/QUOTE]
