I am curious what the Red Angus breeders think of this bull:

I am looking to retain heifers. I want easy keeping cows. If I could make a change to the cows I have now it would be to add longevity. Does an 18 on the EPD for Stay correlate to longevity? I have some poor udders. All have adequate milk. I will give up growth to get good maternal traits. Is he a good cow maker? Should I be concerned about the CEM EPD? From what I have researched the low CEM comes from Cherokee Canyon. Is it pretty extreme? I am looking for any and all opinions. I did some looking online and can't find much about him except what the people selling semen on him have to say. Looks like he is from fescue country, which is a big plus. I happen to have some fescue out there :cboy:
If you don't like him, who in the ABS Red Angus line up is a good cow maker in your opinion?
