[QUOTE="igrowgrass, post: 1080181, member: 21530"] EPDs are really only an effective tool, in my opinion, after the bull has sired a decent number of progeny. This gives you an idea of the accuracy of the information. This is something that is good if you are going to use the bull for AI programs or stuff like that. If you're buying a bull from a guy to use as your herd bull or on clean up duty you have to buy a bull from someone that you trust. Look at his daddy, look at his brothers and sisters, look at any heifers or cows that are in the herd that share the same momma. The art of buying bulls is hard. The art of selling good bulls is harder. I wish you luck. [/QUOTE]
