[QUOTE="I luv herfrds, post: 471393, member: 5917"] In our operation Leeshy we have gone from just "looking" at the bull and cows and have gotten more into looking at the EPD's. This does not mean that we no longer look at the bull to see how he looks, in frame, size, color, temperment and muscle. The EPD's allow us to see what this animal will possibly bring into our herd. A few years ago we got a large dark red bull from our cousin. Did not throw the greatest bull calves, but boy did he throw some great heifer calves. Do not know his who his dam or sire were, but it was a great mix. He was a narrow type of bull, but he had some great length on him. With what he brought into our herd we have improved by bringing in some different bulls with more muscle. [/QUOTE]
