[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1798874, member: 24816"] A lot of people complain about him but I always liked the older bull GAR Predestined. Had a Predestined son and AI bred to Power Tool and like his calves. Never used him but saw a son of GAR Ultimate that thought was a good bull calf at a sale. A few years back GAR Prophet was pretty popular with folks. My opinion, the further you go towards carcass traits the more you are going to lose maternal traits as well as some pounds. That particular bull looks to be an example of that just at face value. I’m not a believer in the accuracy of EPD’s or even the DNA testing. My opinion again, EPD’s and the DNA testing is a long ways from telling the whole story. If enough progeny have accurate records recorded, then they may skew towards a certain result, but far too many variables to take all those numbers as much more than just a bunch of numbers. [/QUOTE]
