The Mischief cow family may be the most prominent polled family in the breed today.
The matriarch of the bloodline, Kamefield Observer Mischief-P, came to Dutch Hollow Farm more than 30 years ago. Since then, numerous great cows and bulls have been developed from this family, including Dutch Hollow Lester Mischief-P and her sons, Dutch Hollow Berretta Choice-P, Dutch Hollow Brendon-P-ET and Dutch Hollow Magistrate-P-ET.
