The Story of Manso - JD Hudgins, Inc HD

This week we are excited to present to you the story of Manso.
That's right! The bull who "started it all" so-to-speak.
Coleman Locke tells us the story of how J.D. Hudgins, Inc. acquired this great bull and there's even video footage of him walking through the pasture. Enjoy this bit of history!

Does Mr Hudgins remember a polled gray Brahman born here between Beaumont and Hamshire? Pretty sure it's genetics were Manso from some cattle purchased by a man named Baldy Witman. He threw all polled calves and was even brought into hotel Beaumont into their lobby on exhibit in late 40's early 50's. I can't remember the bull's registered name but sure it was Manso bloodline. I've noticed the Brahman influenced cows, turned down horns or banana horn f1's, best momma's in any herd around these parts. Milk, all around mothering ability and demeanor, easy keeping females.
