[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1330717, member: 9096"] Brings up EPD's once again... A ranch can raise good (PB, registered) bulls and since they mostly sell to commercial guys (like me) who don't report BW's etc on a given bull, their EPD accuracies are next to useless.. Works good for the big guys who all pat each other on the back and use the bull of the month, all selling to each other where they all report the stats. Looking at the bull I kept (the rideable one) 2 years ago and his first calves, I sure can't say he's inferior to the PB limo... The speckled calf from the first timer is growing great, and has LOTS of butt... and 3 daughters I have from him so far all look pretty good (all are fairly linebred).. I'm waiting on an older cow (much less related to) he bred to calf and see how that looks, she's made a lot of exceptional calves. [/QUOTE]
