[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 320119, member: 13"] I pay very little attention to a picture, more attention to EPDs and pedigrees. And not all pictures are good. I have known some people who were not happy with the photos of their bull that the bull stud companies were using. But we generally wait until a bull's EPD accuracies have gone up and some sons have gone through a performance test station. It's been harder to do that the last few years, so we are using some less proven bulls. We talk to breeders and see which bulls they're happy with. We go to bull sales and see what buyers are looking for. And, honestly, I don't look much at ads for bulls other than Angus. We do go to other breed bull sales, though. That's always a learning experience. [/QUOTE]
