[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1809473, member: 16453"] KY I don't doubt your experiences and perceptions. I think everyones operation and experiences are different, I threw my experiences into the discussion to try to create a bit of balance to people reading this to realise it is not all doom and gloom to those that might be starting to dip their toe in the water with trying to up the ante a bit with their breeding. I think I take a pretty balanced selection process between phenotype and EBV's and am happy with the results generally. We get a lot of US bulls here and many when introduced only have EPD's but the transition to EBV's seems to go a lot smoother these days, I think mostly with the help of genomics. I am guilty of sampling a few of these bulls at a cheaper rate and my data reporting helps to verify their EBV's but then I am a risk taker with most things I do. You win some, you lose some just as long as you recognise the winners and losers but no train wrecks so far, I do do my homework on those I sample though. Ken [/QUOTE]
