Going to attend a simmental bull sale this evening and wondering how much emphasis to place on actual BW. Most are listed as having over 100lb bw some 110 range. This seems very high but their bw epd's are between -1 and 2.1. Is a simmental bull with bw epd of 2 and actual bw of 110 too big for a 1200lb commercial cow? I know this is dependent upon countless factors, but these gaudy bw numbers are freaking me out a little bit.
