Northern Improvement (birth weight epd -.7) we have had a few dozen calves range from 60-90 plus pounds. If you look at his epd bw -.7 and compare it to a few of Griswold's angus easy calving sires OCC Machinist 734M birth wieght epd -2.1 and OCC Homer -3.5 you will get a live calf on the ground and if its a female will be extremely deep bodied and structally sound as replacement female. We are switching to Machinist and Ali for our heifers. Good Luck.
