Buster 260 who is the sire of my bull is from the 5502 line and I like what he throws. Double L is a 5502 son and has produced some of the top selling bull at Texoma and Beef on Forage. I seen some 260 daughters gosh they are pretty. When buying cattle you got to look and judge the animal then look at the family tree and see what they have done. I have seen sorry animals in every color. I got a paint first calf cow who is raising a real nice bull can't wait to see what she produces when she is fully mature.
Wacocowboy, are you a commercial cattleman that uses Beefmaster breeder? Reason I ask, is that I was just curious as to what type of cows you are using Beefmaster bull on and what type of success have you had with it and what are the best crosses? Also, would you happen to have a picture of your Buster Bull? I would really like to get a visual of these cattle, so when I start looking I have some sort of measuring stick or standard to go by. Everyone on this thread seems extremely knowledgable and I want to make sure I use this opportunity to get all the information I need because the to visit with intelligent cattle breeders in one place is rare. As for L Bar 5502 I think I found a picture of him and here is link, you guys tell me if I have the correct bull. If this is indeed 5502, boy is he impressive.

Also, if I were to contact this Buster gentleman, what can I expect to pay for a bull, or can you even buy one private treaty?
