Very few people alive today have any concept as to how tough people used to be...

I obviously wasn't there, but past experience tells me that their flight pattern was directly related to the approach of the riders as well as the rider's response. Lots of things not taught in stockmanship just because they are counter intuitive to what we've been taught. It's easier to blame...

I obviously wasn't there, but past experience tells me that If what little human interaction they have is the right kind, they wouldn't have that strong of a flight or fight reaction. The cattle in the video below were trader cows which came off two different ranches. One load was a couple of...

Actually we used duct tape. Wasn't always because we were poor though. Boots wear out when you're 45 miles from the nearest paved road, then another 80 miles from town present shopping problems. Especially when you might be another month or two from your next opportunity to get to town. I have...

Well not all of society, just enough to drive up the price of our clothes. Seems like the rest want to send us more wolves. Before Urban Cowboy hit the screen, a decent felt work hat was $35-$45. Price jumped $100 after it came out.

Still, 95% of the time the good cowboys make it harder than they need to...often just so they can rope something and have a good story to tell at the bar. Friend of mine had to gather a place he takes care of last month. Guy who owns the cattle sent three "good cowboys" and it wound up taking...

At today's prices it "might" work, but what happens when calf prices drop to under $2 as they most likely will? I'd suggest figuring out a regenerative grazing plan where the owner could be receiving money for carbon credits then approach the owner with your own lease agreement based on that.

You need to tell that to Alejandro Carrillos and the thirty or fourty ranchers in Mexico who have been doing it for a few decades. When he started he was running 100+ acres per cow, feeding for six months out of the year and weaning calves at four months. After ten years he was running 30 acres...

Was raised in northern California, six miles from the nearest town. Dad was an electrician, but we were surrounded by small farms and ranches running sheep, and or Angora goats, and cattle. When I was five, the neighbors were doing something with the goats. Asked the old man what they were doing...
