Next to every EPD is a small number most buyers skip. That’s accuracy.
It runs from 0 to 1. Near 0, the likely range around the EPD is wide. Near 1, it’s tight.
406’s weaning weight is +81 at .47 accuracy, about 8 lb either way. His sire, G A R Home Town, is +62 at .97, with more than 8,000 calves weighed behind it.
Low accuracy isn’t a knock on a bull. It means less data is in so far. Every calf recorded adds more, and the range tightens.
Start with the bull himself: his mother, his feet, his structure, how he moves. The EPD tells you if he fits your cows. Accuracy tells you how hard to lean on it.
Registered Angus bulls, private treaty, Fallon, Nevada. Link in bio.

Improving a cow herd means making some hard decisions.
Recently, we had to let go of a young female we really liked because of reproductive issues. We also culled two established cows… still with plenty of productive years ahead of them…because their feet and legs weren’t holding up the way we expect.
There was a lot we liked about all three. But continuing to improve the Rafter 9 herd means being disciplined about fertility, structure and longevity; even when it means moving on from cattle we’d rather keep.
Breeding better cattle isn’t only about what you add to the herd. It’s also about what you’re willing to take out.
What’s one trait you won’t compromise on in your cow herd?
