[QUOTE="watson brangus, post: 746366, member: 3515"] It doesnt work like that, you dont subtract or add from the averages. A number is given based on the breed averages and then based on performance data and ratios the epds are adjusted. In brangus anything under a 1.5-2 I would consider lbw bulls. Also, you must realise that epd's are just a tool, something to also keep in mind is the bulls actual birth weight. If you are in Kansas, Vern Suhn would be a great breeder to give a call. Very honest man, and has a great program. Also, thanks for having interest in Brangus! [/QUOTE]
