Talk on another post about Vindicator, looking at his EPD's please explain why he would be better to use than another bull I'll put a couple up to compare to. My thought that Vindicator has good BW, to me everything seems off the mark, especially for a heifer replacement bull. But I'm trying to understand how to read EPD's better.
Vindicator:
CED-3.5, BW-1.8, WW-29, YW-42, MM-14, M&G-28, CEM-(-3.6), SC-0.1. ACC is mid 80's to mid 90's.
FELTONS MAGNUM 434:
CED-2.9, BW-3.1, WW-49, YW-80, MM-21, M&G-45, CEM-4.2, SC-1.0. ACC is all over, from low of 12 to high of 70.
While I was gathering info for this post, I did see how much a newer bull seem to change in their EPD's. I like the BRL Call 100 Bull but in just a few months his BW has gone way up and his MM has gone up from 22 to 24. While his WW and YW has dropped a little.
Thanks for any and all input.
Alan
