[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1326638, member: 24565"] If they are trying to get him used widely, the first calves will be from superior cows to get the data. That is the reason some bull data takes a dive after a second crop. So, if the data is correct so far and can be used on a broad population of cattle, you are seeing a bull that sires calves with a shape that are hard to calve. If you use him the genetics for that will be in your cattle for generations. Breed for extremes; you get extremes. [/QUOTE]
