[QUOTE="dun, post: 669193, member: 34"] The last cut is if I'm looking at cattle and don;t have their registration numbers or EPDs before hand, maybe just their pedigree. For yearling bulls, the I or P for accuracy could just as well mean SWAG. Look back at his parents and their parents. There may be a boogeyman hiding in there. That yealring could be from a breeding where one parent is plus 10 for calving ease and the other is minus 10. That would make the bull a zero. The zero is bad enough, but that minus 10 can jump up and bite you. [/QUOTE]
