[QUOTE="Travlr, post: 1816625, member: 42463"] I don't know any specific bulls to recommend, but I can say that you can always find the right kind of EPDs... while ignoring what you want your animals to look like. Find some bulls that suit your desires for conformation as your FIRST criteria. They need to LOOK like something you want in your pasture, like what you want your steers to look like (I know, you're looking for heifers but you are going to want good looking steers out of your heifers.) and breed for length and depth and muscle... and then choose from among those bulls that satisfy your eye as far as the EPDs. A lot of people forget to choose bulls by how they will improve their herds conformation. IMO, the FIRST criteria in choosing a bull... [/QUOTE]
