We breed, raise, and train registered Texas Longhorns right here on our place at 3306 West 80th Street in Stillwater, Oklahoma. We are not your typical cattle ranch — our Longhorns are handled like colts, halter-broken at one to two months old, and trained as companion animals and saddle cattle. Each calf gets four to five hours of individual attention every week. By age two, they are saddle-ready. A fully trained steer represents several hundred hours of work over three years. We maintain a small, deliberate herd of 13 head across five generations, using four saddle-broke cows as breeding stock. Our flagship cow Astoria is the longest-horned saddle cow in the country at 86 2/4 inches tip to tip. We select sires weighing around 2,000 pounds that produce strong-framed offspring capable of carrying a 50-pound saddle and a 200-pound rider. Our trained steers are used for ranch work, parades, Western reenactments, movies, and TV commercials.
