231A was a standout as a yearling during the summer months of 2014 at Red Hill Farms. 231A had unusually short, slick
hair – making him extremely valuable for cowherds on fescue pastures and in hot climates. This adaptability feature of 231A
translated into excellent individual ratios – 99 BWR, 109 WWR, 117 YWR, 107 %IMF, and 121 REA. We were looking for a
Step Out son with all the positive attributes of Step Out – foot size, length of stride, soundness, growth and carcass traits –
without bringing along the birthweight. 231A’s dam, X004, is a Gateway cow that has adapted well to our fescue environment
and has excellent progeny ratios. She is now a donor cow at Red Hill. Watch for more progeny in the future!
231A’s calves are always the heaviest in each contemporary group at weaning. His calves are very dense, wide-centered and
heavy muscled-cattle that have tremendous growth rate without the extra frame size. His calves are never “out of bounds” on
frame size in either direction. All daughters are being retained at Red Hill. Daughters of 231A were calved in the fall of 2017
and in the spring of 2018. We are simply elated with those daughters - tremendous dispositions, tight and perfectly shaped
udders with small teats, great fl eshing ability, and the same denseness and center body width of their sire.

J Bar J Nightride 225Z is an exciting addition to Red Hill Farms. We think he compliments our 701T cattle very well.
Nightride rose to the top in the group of bulls at Great Lakes Beef Connection. He possesses the moderate frame and
thickness we demand with an awesome set of EPDs. We have found Nightride to be as easy calving as any Red Angus or
black Angus bull we have used. Owned with J Bar J Ranch (MI) and Gibbs Farms (AL).
