     I first saw this bull when I attended the GrazeFest Convention in Alabama in 2004. I couldn’t stop thinking about him. I was finally able to obtain a semen interest in him in 2006. 123 is a polled, calving ease bull that possesses tremendous thickness, fertility, foraging ability and longevity. His momma produced until she was 17. 123 is a linebred bull with the highest possible DNA score for feed efficiency. He is also a proven producer of high-quality, grass-finished beef. Co-owned with Bent Tree Farms.

      Braxton 15K was the high-selling, forage-tested Hereford bull in our 2001 Fall Bull Sale. He is a polled bull with small scurs. He has tremendous heart girth and capacity. He gained over 4 pounds per day in our all-grass forage test. To date, no other bull (of any breed) has come close to matching his performance. Braxton 15K has a puppy-dog disposition. His sire, Raider Braxton 631F, is a New Zealand bred bull. His goggle-eyed dam produced until she was 13 years old. Co-owned with the Lapp Hereford Ranch.

      Republic is a Polled Hereford bull with extreme thickness and muscling in a smaller frame. He is a throw back to the time when Hereford cattle could thrive in environments that were too tough for other cattle. Republic is the result of flushing a good, 4-frame cow to a very stout, 1973-born bull. He is in the top 10% of the Hereford breed for birth weight and calving ease. Republic is co-owned with the Flying River Ranch and Schu-Lar Polled Herefords. Limited semen inventory.
