[QUOTE="sizmic, post: 945615, member: 6764"] I understand that HP epd is a calculation derived from data turned in on how many of a particular sires daughters make it to "motherhood". It doesn't have a thing to do with conception of a sires daughters, other than the fact that they obviously bred or they wouldn't have calved. I.E. if a breeder turns all data in, they (AAA) have a good idea of which sires are making good enough heifers to be used as replacements. Thats why MIF took a jump in HP epd, more data came in after he was well proven in other areas and people really liked them. Sizmic Edit: MIF's son AAR Ten X is getting a lot of attention right now! I used him a lot this year. [/QUOTE]
