Here I go giving advise where I should keep my mouth shut as I have no idea where you live and no idea what kind of cows (beef dairy) we are talking about. Do you hay this pasture? What kind of pasture are you trying to save (Bahia; Bermuda)?
Killing buttercup is all about timing. You need to spray when young and before they flower. To late for that around here.
Buttercup is "USUALLY" a sign of poor over grazed under limed and under fertilized pasture. It does not compete well with a good stand of grass. Nothing will eat them as they are toxic to livestock so they thrive in a over grazed pasture. A good stand of winter rye grass that compete with the buttercup in the early spring will knock it down.
As far as spraying I would be looking into Clarity/Banvel (dicamba) (No waiting period between treatment and grazing for nonlactating animals. Remove meat animals from treated areas 30 days prior to slaughter) or a 24d mix like Crossbow (2,4-D + triclopyr) (Remove meat animals from treated areas or dried hay 3 days prior to slaughter) OR ForeFront (aminopyralid + 2,4-D) (Do not transfer grazing animals for 3 days from treated areas to areas with Milestone sensitive-species)
