Was thinking of this earlier. I was curious on which bulls had the lowest & the highest BW EPD's

Lowest: -7.7 O'HARA'S 40S  DOB 2/25/1984  Registration number 97214  (purebred)
Highest: 12.7  THUNDER BEEF NUGGET 54S  DOB 2/17/1984  Registation number 118371  (Fullblood)

I figured Knabe & XXCC would enjoy this!

40s, wonder if his carcass weight is the lowest in the breed as well.

laura is the animal i would want in there the most on nugget.

a combo was missed for some reason.  perhaps it was tried and was an immediate disaster.

for the life of me, i can't believe there wasn't at least one success.  maybe there was, i just haven't found it yet.

ok, i'll bite.

the best epd's are usually genetrated with a pencil.  charlie phillips usually has some of the 'best' in the breed.  why is it that everyone is after griswold and hartman's cattle and not his?  pencil's can lie and facts don't., neither do non-statements.

REMEMBER THIS, epd's are a tool.  ask gib yardley what he thinka of epd's. 435-310-0041 / 435-438-2424
