[QUOTE="ollie', post: 154418, member: 2432"] Merry Christmas to you as well Frankiestien. You are wrong btw. If the two bulls have data collected in two different environments their data is incomplete. This is what Cypress is saying. If 878 calves are higher than travler 004 by 50 lbs on average and thousands of calves data have been collected but 60% of the data is off lush environments but you were going to use the bulls in the south then 004 might actually be better in a low input program efficiency isn't considered in the ww equasion. On the other hand the cows were strip grazing alfalfa and the calve were creep fed possibly the 878 calves would weigh 80 lbs more at weaning. The ww epd is an expected progeny difference...not an actual difference every time. P.S Frankie have you got my present bought? [/QUOTE]
