[QUOTE="smnherf, post: 693824, member: 3235"] It gets more interesting as I look more into the data. I have a Boulder son here that has 26 scans all from my own herd with a top 35% ranking in the breed for IMF epd. Their is a fair amount of data collected on his sire and half sibs in other herds. He had 7 calves in the group and 2 graded choice. 3 of the 7 of these were out of half sisters to 0232 and 2 more of them had 0232's sire as their mgs. Now on 0232's calves, 5 of the 9 had his sire as the maternal grandsire. So they were fairly tightly bred back to the old Mac 117D bull but still graded choice, whereas when bred to the Boulder son, they reduced the % choice. Brian [/QUOTE]
