[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 445361, member: 637"] Frankie, I did not put anything in your mouth, that is just how I read it. To me that says from your view, there is nothing to learn. Just my thoughts.......... But I think there could be something to learn. I have been at sales that have sold bulls at 8 months old, and would like to know a bit more than his dad had coconuts and mom's side had acorns. I want to get some kind of idea what comes with the package. I also want to look at the calf and know his height. Is he in with a group that is really really large framed or is he a midget or normal? I think this is how the EPD's are manipulated. Put one bull that has good bloodlines, in the average range, in with a group that turned out to be midgets, and you have a bull with higher EPD's. Or that is how I see it. Chuckie [/QUOTE]
