A Nelson Bull is definitely something special. Very few bulls ever get to carry the title. Some years we do not keep the nuts in one single bull. If they are going to be Nelson Bulls they are going to be good. We will only promote a bull we have raised. Anyone can go buy a great bull, but there is no substitute for raising a great one from a great cow you own. This is what keeps us going every day. We study the business and we study the pedigrees and we breed bulls that can make a difference. If you see the name "Nelson" on a bull, you will know he has made the grade.

This picture was taken last October as a calf! He can be seen at Nichols in Ankeny, Iowa. We are really excited for Brady and this young new Purebred herdsire. We think that his outcross genetics give the Maine breeder something new and exciting to use on their cattle. He has an incredible set of EPD's and is packed with style and performance...a rare commodity these days. He will be a breed changer!

He will take the white off and put the performance in. Big middled and super sound describe the 26T2 calves. You will be hearing more from this bull. Keep your eyes on the bull.

We sold this bull in Denver as a calf and retained a semen interest. We liked what we saw and ended up repurchasing the bull later. He died shortly thereafter but he is leaving his mark. He leaves them hairy, pretty fronted and they come easy. This bull is another example of the maternal strength of our bulls. Over the years we have kept several Big Improvement daughters and they make fantastic cows. Just check out the CowPower 18S cow on the CowPower page. They milk great and keep easy.

• Very limited semen is available to Bunkhouse Semen at Nelson Cattle Company.

Gigolo Joe crashed Denver in 2007 when he was displayed as a two year old. Sound as a cat, stout as a German beer and easy calving to boot! People still talk about Gigolo Joe’s sire display in Denver in 2007. And then there was 2008 when three of his calves rocked the yards. But the lasting memories are yet to come. We are confident that Joe’s legacy will be his daughters. We have calved enough to know. They are beautiful uddered, easy calving, structurally correct females. If you are lucky enough to have a Joe daughter in your cowherd, you know what we mean. Joe will make a show calf for you too. Use him on your crossed up, clubby bred, defect carrying females and you will see. He works and he works for the long haul.
