I looked into using the bull some. He has great milk, carcass and growth numbers and he will be getting alot of attention and his progeny will get a close look at sales, i would think. U can go to the canadian hereford site ( www.hereford.ca ) and see a lot of info on him in the epd lookup. They give actuals and ratios. 157k has no actual bw listed. U can scroll down through his progeny's bw's and ratios.....they invert the bw ratios in canada.....o canada, lol. I guess a person needs to breed what sells and epds do sell, and his progeny will probably be big and thick. I expect his bw epd will go alot like P606's did. The carcass epds are good, but if we ever get carcass epds that tie the growth and carcass traits together the entire carcass epds will change. I mean an epd for rea/cwt or something. But those are the epds that are out there and those are what people will be placing value on and he has got them as well as most today.

I think he will be one to look out for but probably wont be promoted like Rambo ,Neon or 606. His Bw has went down since last year but it may climb up. Thanks JHH
