Why Brahman?

That's about as Brahman as I need here. Breed to a Black Angus bull and order buyers at the sale barn will never notice the Brahman.
I am mathematically challenged but best I can figure is your cow is about a 3/8 Brahman influenced animal and when crossed with the Angus the resulting calf is 3/16 (less than a 1/4 blood) Brahman influenced. This is an ideal calf for the south and will sell as well as anything at our sale barns.
And probably do well for the north too.
 
I am in southern middle TN. I am wanting to purchase a brahman foundation type cow. I love them and my son does as well. I will use AI on her. I feel that I need to get one that is already adjusted to our regional climate and fescue. Does that make sense or would that not be an issue?
