[QUOTE="dun, post: 740530, member: 34"] I don;t know how EPDs are calculated but there may be a correction type of deal for animals that are such outliers for WW and YW Anything above 55 for WW is in the upper 1% and over 100 for YW is in the upper 1%. Neither bull has much in the line of accuracys and that also plays into the calculations some way I would think. Also, being sired by a black Angus may contribute to the difference sine black and Red Angus have different bases sothe correction for the different bases probably also enter in [/QUOTE]
