Travis is proving to be one of the most consistent Sires in the Black Hereford Breed.  At our recent “In the Black” Sale we sold seven bulls sired by Travis that averaged $3,021 including the top selling bull Iron Man 1015 T, a homozygous black bull, that sold for $5,150 to G Bar G Ranch of Blossom, TX.  Those seven bulls had an average weaning ration of 105 and an average yearling ratio of 110.  We also sold five open heifers that averaged $2,850 including the top selling open heifer, Iron Lady 001 T, that sold to Triple T Farm, Tim Tarter of Nancy, KY for $3,400.  Travis combines excellent EPD’s including a spread of 0.9 at birth to 71.5 at yearling with powerful muscle and lots of depth of body.  Travis’ calves are eye-appealing and very sound and structurally correct.
