My only problem with President and some other bulls is that they are not genomic tested.
I think it makes enough difference on epds that I would rather try a bull with genomic testing or wait until the bull is truly proven.
Purely rumor but from reputable people in the industry, it is said that those purchased from SAV are NOT allowed to be genomic tested. Also, any SAV still owned by SAV that is being collected on is not allowed to be genomic tested either. I've "heard" that there have been lawsuits threatened over this very thing. Puts some validity in this when you see that these bulls haven't been. Can't stop someone like ourselves from testing offspring but they've already then sold so many units off that bull.
