[QUOTE="SPH, post: 1544302, member: 20580"] Also, while I do admire mrvictordomino's cattle if you are going to be a stickler on EPDs, Anodyne already has 625 reported birth weights to AHA to JMS 475 105 and there is a 9 year gap in age between those 2 bulls. Anodyne was used in the National Reference Sire Program on the Olsen Ranch on commercial cows which is a good test on how a Hereford bull will perform in a a commercial environment. That is not a knock on Danny's bull, its just an example how you have to analyze EPDs because the 475 bull is in the bottom 5% of WW and YW EPDS and I don't buy that is the kind of results Danny gets in his program. We just cut a bull calf with the best EPDs in our calf crop yesterday because he did not fit what we want in from a bull phenotypically. You can't just make decisions and analysis based off EPD numbers. [/QUOTE]
