BUF CRK Nice‘n Easy T189 was our pick of the bulls in the November 2008 Buffalo Creek Sale. We purchased
T189 with our cooperator herd, Coyote Hills. T189 is sired by BUF CRK Medallion N328, a bull whose proge-
ny have adapted and performed exceptionally well in the Coyote Hills herd in Kentucky. T189’s dam is simply
an outstanding Beckton Julian GG B571 daughter with an exceptional production record.
Prior to the Buffalo Creek Sale, we found P154 in one of the huge pastures at Buffalo Creek thriving on dry
grass, and in respectable body condition for a young cow that had been so fertile and productive. She also
had small teats and a problem free udder. Two years later when we attended the Buffalo Creek dispersal, we
purchased P154. We believe she was the best cow offered in the sale for the type of cattle we like. T189’s
maternal granddam, 9005, had averages of 105 WR, 106 YR and MPPA of 104.6 on 10 natural calves before
going into the Buffalo Creek Transplant program.
T189 puts together an unusually strong combination of convenience and cow effi ciency traits on both sides
of his pedigree. T189 is also outstanding from a phenotypic standpoint. He is a very moderate framed, struc-
turally correct bull with tremendous width of chest, spring of rib and body volume. Out in the pasture with
a large group of cows here in KY, T189 exhibits excellent overall balance as he moves over the hills. We like
the way that T189 has performed on fescue since coming to Kentucky, maintaining or gaining body condition
while running with cows during the breeding season. His ability to get the cows bred and maintain excellent
fl esh is unique. We have learned the importance of short, slick-haired cattle which thrive on fescue. T189’s
daughters and granddaughters will be the backbone of our herd for many years to come. Note that his EPD
for HPG is now 22 which is further evidence of the superior fertility in his daughters. These females excel in
udder quality and are consistently producing at the top of their respective contemporary groups. Their udder
quality, docility and fl eshing ability make these T189 daughters favorites of visitors to Red Hill.
Owned in partnership with Buffalo Creek Red Angus (WY) and Coyote Hills Farm (KY).
