Our ranch is 270 acres of beautiful rolling hills in Southeast
Oklahoma. Atoka is on Hwy 69/75 2 1/2 hours north of Dallas
and 2 1/2 hours southeast of Okalhoma City. The people in
Oklahoma are the nicest people you will ever meet.
My husband and I moved here in 1999 and started our
machine shop business and ranch. We built the home of our
dreams and are raising Texas Longhorn Cattle and Quarter
Horses.
My husband road bulls and wanted his own arena and stock.
We are building a new arena so we can host rodeos and
have a practice pen for everyone to enjoy. We use the arena
for church ranch rodeo practice also. We will also have an
outdoor ampitheater for music.
I was a horse lover and showed in about every event
imaginable. I qualified for the world in working cow horse
when I was 17. After settling in Oklahoma I have got back
into raising horses and riding for pleasure. I have also been
an active horse show judge and I have my ABRA card. We try
to keep some good ranch geldings for sale. We do have
some broodmares and raise some good all around foals.
Color, breeding and looks are important to us in our
breeding program.
With horses you have to have some cattle so we picked
Texas Longhorn cattle. They have wonderful dispositions,
are so hardy and are beautiful to look at.
Our bulls include bloodlines of Emperior, Roundup, Levi 6,
JK Sterling to name a few. We put emphasis on body size,
horn, color and good dispositions in our breeding program.
We have cows, heifers, bulls and roping stock for sale at all
times.
We accept Visa and Mastercard and can make arrangements
for payments. We can also haul livestock or make
arrangements for hauling long distance.
Y'all Come.
