How do you know that's where the comment came from?Son of Butch":2vz7dsm3 said:Miss Information.... Select Sires does not calculate or control the EPD breed information.Boot Jack Bulls":2vz7dsm3 said:....who said this bull is for the show ring? The semen company. They will also say that certain bulls are calving ease,
when their use in herds clearly says they are not.
Back to original question.... IF not for the Show Ring.... then what is the purpose?
Why choose to use either Double Black or First-N-Goal instead of any of the 60+ black angus bulls Select has available?
Select owns neither bull and the use for Show Ring comments come from the bull owners that formed the syndicate
to market them.
And no, SS does not control the EPDs. I never said they did. I am not arguing the bull in question is far from balanced EPD wise, I am pointing out that the other matter of contention most have with this bull (his phenotype and "show appeal") is completely subjective.
There are tons of bulls out there in those glossy AI catalogs that have no business being used in commercial herds or seedstock/ show ring herds. That doesn't stop them from being syndicated and collected..... They are simply attempting to profit from the fact that there is a sucker born every second!
