August 2006 Proofs

New proof information was released on Monday, thoughts anyone?  Any bulls surprise you?

This proof run showed a change in the TPI formula, due to the new way USDA calculates Productive Life.  Cows will now receive credit for their time in production after 10 months-in-milk per lactation and after 84 months of age. Previously, credits were limited to the first 10 months of each lactation and stopped accumulating credit after 7 years of age.

I always like to hear what people are thinking or if there are any new bulls to get excited about.  Drop me an email!
