[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 669376, member: 968"] "Generally" speaking, if someone says that EPD's are worthless - either they don't understand them or don't want to understand them. They are a crutial TOOL in our operation. I was just downstairs looking at our bull prospects' registration papers, checking their EPD's to see if there were any MAJOR holes in them. We are getting ready to work calves & will be doing our major castrating, leaving only the "creme of the crop". So, they need to have the right phenotype and the numbers to back them up (actual BW - current WPDA & EPD's). (I already KNOW they have the right pedigree :banana: ) [/QUOTE]
