[QUOTE="Hpacres440p, post: 1613850, member: 39347"] I’ve wondered why the “club calf” phenotype is so popular-all I see on some is an uphill battle for a calf to be born. Thanks for the input-I like to know structural predictors rather than just choosing by pedigree. In my opinion, most bulls should be steers unless there is an outstanding reason for them to continue a bloodline-and I don’t have nearly enough experience to pick an unproven animal solely on pedigree. I guess I’ll stick with AI and EPDs for now-at least there is some data available for making bull choices. [/QUOTE]
