Fisher Ranch Oklahoma v McIntosh County
Older than Oklahoma—The Fisher Ranch story dates prior to Oklahoma statehood. Five generations of the Fisher family make up the legacy of this large Eastern Oklahoma Ranch in McIntosh County near Lake Eufaula. Featuring over 11,000 well-managed acres, this working cattle ranch supports 1,500 cattle, has excellent hunting, and boasts over 60 years history of American Quarter Horse breeding.

Volume 85 Farm Ranch
THE HISTORY Dr. Jonas Fisher M.D. started laying the groundwork for this historic ranch on April 22, 1889 by staking his claim on land in Oklahoma County in the original Oklahoma Land Run of 1889. His son, Roy Fisher Sr., continued to expand the family’s land and commercial cattle operation over the next generation. In the late 1940s the patriarch’s grandson, Roy Fisher Jr., began putting together land in McIntosh County, Oklahoma after graduating from Oklahoma State University and spending two years in the U.S. Army. It was around this same time when Roy Jr. began putting together a band of American Quarter Horse mares, formulating the early beginnings of what would become the Fisher Ranch Performance Horse Program. Fisher worked to preserve bloodlines that provided a consistent source of prospects and breeding stock for ranches, competitors and foundation horse breeders. Roy Fisher Jr. spent the better part of 60 years dedicating the Fisher Ranch breeding program to producing horses with superior cow sense, unparalleled disposition, and all-around athletic ability. He believed that the top hands who made their living on a horse couldn’t afford to lose wages on a sorry mount. Roy Fisher Jr. was a life-long student of genetics and self-stated “believer of families,” which is how he approached the improvement of his horses. Fisher Ranch takes pride in preserving the legendary cow horse cross of Bert and Oklahoma Star foundation bloodlines. Fisher foals are known for their uniformity in both conformation and ability. The Fisher Ranch Horse Breeding Program achievements include many notable horses raised on the ranch, used as foundation stock, or bred as outcrosses to improve the quality of today’s American Quarter Horse. The Fisher Ranch is recognized as a Legacy Award Winner by The American Quarter Horse Association and multiple world champion Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association competitors have won while riding the Fisher-bred horses.
THE RANCH The Fisher Ranch is a true working cattle ranch that was put together with efficiency and productivity in mind. The improvements are modest and reflect the family’s goal to maintain a profitable and sustainable ranch operation that would stand the test of time. Management of the ranch prioritizes investments with respect to the needs of the livestock and tends to eliminate unnecessary expenses. Nestled in the surrounding hills that border Lake Eufaula, the Fisher Ranch is an excellent home to livestock, with wellbalanced rangeland grazing estimated at 50 percent native grasses and 40 percent Bermuda grasses, having over 100 water sources including multiple live water creeks, lakes and ponds, and the balance in timber and brush. In addition to agricultural aspects, the ranch produces income from a quarry operation that harvests natural stone for architectural construction projects throughout the country. The ranch has excellent highway access bordering State Highway 9 for over seven miles, offering investment buyers the potential to divide and further develop the property.
HUNTING AND RECREATION Hunting and recreational aspect of the ranch offer excellent opportunities to harvest some of the largest southeastern Oklahoma Whitetail Deer. It features diverse terrain with elevation changes. The timber covered areas and mid-level bedding provide habitat for deer, turkey, and upland game. The many water sources offer great prospects for waterfowl and fishing adventures. Hiking, horseback riding, swimming, boating, and other activities are a natural fit for the area. Lake Eufaula, the largest lake in Oklahoma, is less than a mile from the ranch border (as the crow flies) and a mere 10-minute drive. This area features some of the finest modern lake communities in the state. Hunting Country Real Estate is honored to offer this Oklahoma legacy ranch for sale and appreciate the trust the Fisher Family placed in our hands. Written by Shane Terrel. 10 Volume 85 Farm Ranch

The American Dream—hard work, tradition and the pursuit of new ideas—anchors Wyoming’s Lazy YK Ranch. Today, the fourth and fifth generations manage the ranch, and the sixth—though still in elementary school—is in training. Optimistic about the beef industry, the fifth generation, Tyler and Angela McCann, build the ranch’s food chain from beef’s birth to plate to increase financial profit. The McCanns identified that a market opportunity for lower-class cattle, which sustain monetary losses, is to finish them and sell the beef directly to local customers. By seeking ranch profit, Tyler and Angela honor their family’s ranch tradition. “My great-grandfather was born in a dugout on Twin Creek,” says Angela McCann. “My grandfather Bill Hancock branched off from the family place there. He worked on some big outfits. When he married my grandmother, he owned a saddle and bedroll. She had a few cooking pots and a sewing machine. Through hard work, my grandparents purchased the ranchlands east of Riverton [Wyoming] that we still hold today. Because of them, I believe in the American Dream.”
12 Volume 85 Farm Ranch
When the McCanns assumed active management roles within the Lazy YK Ranch business, they conducted a thorough review of its operations. “Our sagebrush range demands smaller-framed cattle,” explains Tyler McCann. “We run on a 57-square mile BLM [Bureau of Land Management] common allotment, so we must remain with commercial F1 cross of Angus and Hereford genetics. Our cattle don’t compete well on the commodity market.” As Tyler and Angela scrutinized for operational efficiencies, they, somewhat accidentally, found a new way to generate more revenue on the ranch’s lower class cattle. “We had a calf born in December; everyone has an accident now and again,” Tyler says. “The calf’s ears, nose and tail froze off. His mama was a first-calf heifer and she mothered him just fine. “At shipping, we knew there was no sense taking him to the sale barn. We’d have to pay to sell him. So, Angela and I took him home to the farm [by Pavillion, Wyoming] and fed him out. At processing, he weighed in at 1,600 pounds.” The McCann family shared the beef with family and friends. Those folks told Tyler and Angela that, if they finished more cattle, they’d buy the beef. The next autumn, Tyler and Angela hauled three calves with frozen ears and tails home to the farm. “Those three, sold as beef, paid for all of their finishing feed,” Tyler recalls, “and we got our beef, what we kept back for our family, for free. We thought we had the world by the tail. We did six the next year. Fast forward, and we’ve got the Wyoming Cowboy Cuts, LLC and we finished 40 head in 2020.” As beef orders increased, all lower-class cattle—anything not solidly colored black, frozen ears and/or tails, horned, etc.—that wouldn’t sell for full price at the sale barn went into the finish pasture. “The beef business has been a great financial supplement, and our culling system, for the cow/calf herd,” Tyler says. “On the calves that would be docked on price at the sale barn, we average $2,500 each when they’re finished. When we crunch the numbers with the cost of feed and labor, we net more per finished animal than we do for our premium calves sold commercially.” For pasture, the McCanns graze the fat cattle destined for local beef sales on their hayfield’s low-lying portions that cannot be baled due to excessive subirrigation water. This utilizes forage that formerly didn’t serve as a revenue source. They graze the replacement heifers with the fat cattle. Any of the yearling heifers that don’t breed are returned to the finish pasture. “We’ve already got a year’s worth of grass in the open heifers,” Tyler explains. “If we took them to the sale barn, they’d only fetch $800-to-$900. With another couple of months’ worth of grain in them, we can process them for beef and recoup all of our inputs. They finish just as good as the steers.” Tyler says he’s often questioned by neighboring ranchers if Cowboy Cuts actually makes money on finishing cattle to sell beef directly to local customers. “I tell them all that if a 700-pound calf sells for $900 at the sale barn, they should do that,” he says. For ranchers interested in finishing beef for local sales, Tyler recommends first evaluating the cattle processing available in the area —whether custom exempt, state inspected, and/or US Department of Agriculture [USDA] inspected. The meat processing capacity and travel distance to the facility will impact the beef business’s bottom line. Secondly, decide on a niche to refine business focus.

The McCanns’ research showed that people buy beef for its flavor, quality, pasture-based finishing for animal welfare, and because it is locally raised food. One of the Cowboy Cuts’ niches is pasture-based finishing. “We think the popularity of grass-finished beef is not as much about flavor, or nutritional value, as it is anti-feedlot,” Tyler says. “I don’t have a problem with feedlots. They serve a purpose, and we need that portion of the industry. For us, it wasn’t economically feasible to build a feedlot when we already had fenced irrigated pasture with stock water. In these, we have grain-feeding areas and the cattle always have access to green grass. We do ensure, in our marketing, to say, ‘The cattle are never in a feedlot.’” An equally important niche and marketing strategy is the beef’s terroir— he taste of the land’s climate, soil and topography. This focus arose through Tyler’s charcuterie hobby. His family’s favorite dish is his carne cruda. He also cures—in the spare bedroom—biltong, the African cousin to American jerky, and bresaola, the beef version of prosciutto. These prepared beef products aren’t sold to customers, because they aren’t state or USDA inspected. But, Tyler is quick to tout how charcuterie highlights Cowboy Cuts’ uniquely flavored beef. “I think the flavor of our beef comes from the range where our cattle are born and raised,” Angela says. “Then, the COB [corn, oat and barley grain] finish adds another layer.” The McCanns don’t stop at beef flavored by the sagebrush range and a grain diet. Occasionally, they finish a beef on wine. “There is no science behind it,” Tyler admits. “It’s also very 14 Volume 85 Farm Ranch
expensive, because a steer will drink a box of wine a day. But, you can taste the difference in the beef. Even when you don’t tell people, they’ll remark on the hint of wine.” To initially convince a steer to drink wine is difficult. Tyler won’t reveal his trade secret. He finishes a few cattle on wine every year, because he wants Cowboy Cuts to serve a flight of beef. Similar to taste-testing a flight of craft beers, a flight of beef would consist of 4-ounce servings of a few flavor profiles. Established thus far: sagebrush desert flavor and wine flavor. Tyler and Angela coordinate with neighboring ranchers for strictly grass-finished beef, and cattle raised down on the Sweetwater River. There is also the beefier selection, from an old cow. “We’ve worked with our wholesale customers to sell beef from aged animals,” Tyler says. “The restaurants reported that people loved the stronger beef flavor. The tenderness doesn’t factor, because all of our beef is more tender than what is available at the store.” Cowboy Cuts customers want to learn how beef was finished to identify what creates the meats’ flavors. Recently, Angela purchased a different brand of wine. It wasn’t the best wine she and Tyler have tasted, but the wine bottle’s label fascinated them. The label listed what created the grape’s terroir: soil type, climate, elevation, season of bloom to harvest, and daytime temperature. “I want to do the same label for beef,” Tyler says. “For instance, it was raised at this elevation, free-ranging on pasture with grain fed twice daily, and the age of the animal. Then, people could learn what type of beef they prefer.”

t the D&D Feedlot West near Iliff, Colorado, cowboss Chelsea Deering focuses on stockmanship and cattle health. Feedlot work combines her two passions: horses and cattle. “We, my crew and I, are here for the cattle,” Deering says. “It’s our job to maintain their health until they’re ready for harvest.”
The feedlot receives cattle from across the U.S., and their health varies. The D&D crew excels at identifying sick or injured cattle and fixing the problem. Deering’s leadership has halved the feedlot’s morbidity rate by assessing what an animal needs to regain its health. “Instead of pulling sick cattle and giving them a blanket antibiotic,” Deering explains, “we try to look at [each] individual animal to discover the problem.” When unexpected deaths occur, the team continues its attention to learn how to prevent future problems. “We had one die today,” says Jenny Breuer, a 7-year veteran D&D pen rider. “Hannah [Sterritt] and I cut it open. We found a big abscess in his brisket and a vegetative growth on his heart. I took photos to send to our vet to learn if there’s any correlation.” Congestive heart failure still stumps the crew. Clinical signs include enlarged brisket, bowed-out elbows, jugular pulses, jugular distension, and fluid-filled, distended abdomens. The pen riders see it most often in calves entering the feedlot directly from weaning. And less frequently in yearlings fresh off grass pasture. Veterinarians and nutritionists often blame the problem on the genetics of the popular Black Angus bull, Traveler. Data collected through health records suggests that some cattle are genetically vulnerable. Environmental or management factors then propel specific cattle to heart failure. The University of Nebraska recently concluded that EPAS1, a gene associated with high-altitude pulmonary hypertension, is not a cause. Researchers are in the midst of whole genome sequencing to uncover other potential genetic links. But other health issues also affect feedlot cattle. To improve the animals’ health, Deering changed the timing of vaccinations. “Vaccines won’t work on a stressed animal,” Deering says. “After their arrival, we let the cattle settle for a couple days to relax and get some feed in their bellies. Then we can vaccinate and implant them.” The feedlot places two growth-hormone implants in each animal’s ears: one at arrival and a second after 70-100 days. “I would really like ranchers to not dock calves’ ears,” Deering advises. “And, don’t put so many tags in their ears. We need room to insert the implants.”
