[QUOTE="EAT BEEF, post: 526056, member: 7761"] We tend to select bulls with high WW and YW EPDs because our goal is to sell bulls to commercial cattlemen. Lots of them sell their calves at weaning and need the higher weights. Those that retain ownership through the feedlot are looking for higher YWs. If our market was replacement heifers, we might look at different bulls. Frankie Imo that is what you shoud be looking at. Are you trying to make cows or terminal bulls? [/QUOTE]
