[QUOTE="Flynengr, post: 1630936, member: 32884"] Thank you. I've been a lurker for years, and figured I'd make a comment since I have used 2 of the 3 bulls in the past. I'll try to add to the discussion where I can so I can post pictures. The Historic bull I don't have any experience with has a number of appealing qualities, for sure. I held off from using him this year due to the accuracy of his EPD's at the time I placed my semen order with my Select rep. I'm glad to read that others on the board have had eyes on his progeny and they are performing as anticipated. I've not had great luck with being an "early customer" on the Angus side. My only hesitation for retaining the Small Town Kid progeny as a herd sire is the huge slide in SC EPD. In Nov 2018 he was 1.5, AHA indicates currently he is at 0.9. If I'm honest with myself my bull calf isn't as well equipped as I'd like to see at 3 months of age. Otherwise I think he's quite the specimen. [/QUOTE]
