[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 295171, member: 4362"] You are assuming they will fall in that range. What happens when it doesn't? Or if it falls on the low or high side of the deviation you are using? Statistically it should change for the better or worse. If you have a new bull and you have calculated the estimated EPD of this bull how can you have accurate numbers without a proper sampling of its offspring? And in so doing do the EPD's go up or down based on the collected data or are they just "fixed" based on your original assumptions? [/QUOTE]
