[QUOTE="ollie', post: 165949, member: 2432"] Doc, I understand your support for epd's . In a controlled data base where the calves will go back on the same environment the data was collected in , epd's would be invaluable. The sad truth is though Doc many , many people without a lick of experience visually appraising livestock and without ever having any experience raising stock in their own environment much less all the various environments the data is gathered in use epd's as their authentic selection criteria for purchasing seedstock. They were never intended for that use nor will they work when applied that way. Believing that I find they do more harm than good in the average persons hands. People are using it as a placebo for knowledge. I respect your opinion very much Doc but we disagree some on this issue. [/QUOTE]
