Buffalo Creek Nice ‘N Easy T189 was our pick of the bulls in the November 2008 Buffalo Creek Sale. We pur-
chased T189 with our cooperator herd, Coyote Hills. T189 is sired by BUF CRK Medallion N328, a bull whose
progeny 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. Click here for
more information about T189’s dam, P154.
Prior to the Buffalo Creek Sale, we were able to fi nd P154 in one of the huge pastures at Buffalo Creek thriv-
ing 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 an apparent 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 a MPPA of 104.6 on 10 natu-
ral 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. To add to T189’s uniqueness, watch his video. This
video was taken in early February 2013 when he was removed from 40 Fall calving cows. His ability to get the
cows bred and maintain excellent fl esh is unique. We have learned the importance of short, slick-haired cattle
that thrive on fescue. This video shows how T189 has little to no hair in the middle of winter. T189’s daugh-
ters and granddaughters will be the backbone of our herd for many years to come. 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.
