[QUOTE="houstoncutter, post: 898467, member: 807"] Epd's are a tool, and a poor one at that. If someone wants to argue the merits, I give you case in point, look at the pic of the bull Napoleon that Red Bull put up on the thread " One for Houstoncutter"....this bulls epd's would be considered average at best..... Now look at the great fullbloods in the Limousin breed today...Rest my case....I have used bulls in the past that would have had only average epd's by todays standards, but they delivered much better results than todays bulls that have great epd's....and before someone wants to jump on that Limi bashing bandwagon.... I will say I have the same examples in the Angus, and Gelbvieh bull that I have used.... As far as an epd that I have had good results with, it would be the docility epd of Limousin... That sucker is dead on, and has helped me keep some great looking but knuckle headed bulls out of my pasture. [/QUOTE]
