[QUOTE="Northern Rancher, post: 641143, member: 5898"] There's a bit of hockey anology here-I have a prospect come up his parents are athletes-his grandparents were athletic too-his Dad actually played some pro hockey. The kid has scored at will in the league he's called up from. I get him and he can't find the net -won't go in the corners and slumps he can't take the rougher going. he's just like a young unproven bull with great numbers-you put him on your team because of great potential but you have to cut him because he can't play in the conditions that your team (cowherd) works in. As for Dams becoming irrelevant EPD wise I suppose but they are a major deal when it comes to the EPD's of practicality-the ones we cull for soundness, disposition etc. [/QUOTE]
