Cross-Ty Yearling Bulls Red Hill Farms – 2017
Red Hill Cross-Ty Bull
There is good reason this program is going to be called Cross-TY. Ty Jones is involved in every-
thing we do at Red Hill, and he is adventurous. He has heard so much positive family discussion
about crossbreeding and hybrid vigor that he is totally sold on providing Red Hill customers with
the opportunity to reap the economic advantages gained from crossbreeding.
Ty has also observed the tremendous performance advantages of crossbred pigs compared
to purebreds. We will continue to identify cattle from other breeds that adapt to the fescue
environment and management scheme at Red Hill. The reason for these experimental efforts is
to identify breeds that can be used to provide more opportunities to increase the profi tability of
our customers. These new genetics are likely to be made available as hybrids or composites;
however, we will not rule out the use of one or two other pure breeds in the future.

22D is the fi rst of the hybrid Cross TY bulls to be offered. 22D is out of our 52X SimAngus cow that is the dam of our 86C
SimAngus bull. The 52X cow is one of the outstanding cows in the Red Hill system being a daughter of our T189 Red An-
gus bull and out of a Red Coat daughter. 22D is sired by DLCC Shur Loc 99W, a South Devon bull that has an outstanding
record in the Leachman system. 22D is a well balanced, sound structured bull with a very pleasing disposition. He should
be ideal to add hybrid vigor to crossbred feeder cattle and replacement heifers.
