‘lncredi-bulV Ballistic Brothers At Rodeo
BUCK (Lancaster Co.) Billed as the biological brothers bent on brutalizing bull*
riders, three Slmbrah bulls from Tulsa, Okla. are coming to the Buck Tractor Pull Sta
dium for Dave Martin’s Championship Rodeo on Monday, May 29 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.
Recently, the “incredi-bulls,” affectionately known as the Ballistic Brothers for
starting out like projectiles, blasted through the April Bullrlde Mania In Harrisburg.
They were introduced to the audience as “hard to handle.” The brutalizing brothers
are the result of breeding a polled purebred Brahma bull to a herd of Simmental cows.
Their names? Iron Man, Hang Man, and Demolition Man.
By the way—lron Man was named the American Professional Rodeo Association’s
“Best Bucking Bull of the Finals” and APRA Bucking Bull of the Year. His career
record is out 118 times, ridden successfully only 4. The four rides were scored 85,83,
84, and 88. He was purchased in Ft. Worth at the Cowtown Coliseum Bucking Stock
Sale for $B,OOO In the fall of 1993.
Iron Man’s half brother Hangman was purchased In October 1994 at the bucking
stock sale In Glen Rose, Texas for $3,500. The third bull, Demolition Man, was pur
chased in March 1995 in Huntingdon, W.Va. for $lO,OOO.
