[QUOTE="thommoos, post: 1080707, member: 738"] I still question EPD's in general. I know that there are producers that , well might be complete honest on how that bull grew so fast. (higher EPD), My best indicator is see what is on the ground. There are a lot of producers here that can say yes good bull epd's are correct. This is a good place to learn from a wealth of knowledge. For instance Gizmom, ran some bull in a bull test, they performed I believe to what the EPD said they would. They were tested on forage test. did real well on the test, and she even posted picts of them. My concern for you would be a relativly unknown Bull with few offspring being promoted by a single source with high EPD's. :2cents: Just a lot to consider. but again this place has a wealth of knowledge.
