“We have an outdoor arena and a covered arena,” Beau continued. “We host ABBI events and several of our own events each year. We also lease our facilities to other folks for their events. We’ve got about 75 bulls and 75 cows. About 50 of the cows are mama cows. Last year we had 42 calves, and 28 of those were bulls.” “I continually learn about the bulls and what they need to get them ready,” Beau revealed. “I’ve learned how to feed them, train them and flank them. Each bull is different. But these bulls are 1,600-to1,700-pound athletes. I believe that from the top performer to the least performer, they are all good. My job is to get the most out of every bull that I have.” The Red Laces Cattle Company website says, “Since the inception of the PBR, the rodeo circuit has only grown in popularity as a lucrative investment opportunity. Following years of owning and breeding bulls, Red Laces Cattle Company has a well-rounded and insightful outlook on how to properly breed and raise pedigreed yearlings to reach their full potential.”
Yellow Feather
“That first year, out of my first calf crop, I took a yearling bull named High Hustler to an open yearling event in Duncan, Oklahoma,” Brad said. “He scored 92.6 points and won the event! I’m really proud of that!” “Our bull Miller Time really put us on the map and moved us to a new level,” Beau revealed. “At the Cowtown Showdown on August 23, 2020 in Fort Worth, Miller Time broke the world record for two- year-old Futurity with a score of 95.2 points! We now co-own him with A&E Bucking Bulls.” Another special bucking bull born and raised by Red Laces Cattle Company is Yellow Feather. He is currently owned by Oilfield Outlaws. “We house, train and haul Yellow Feather for them,” Beau shared. “He is making his debut in the PBR Unleash the Beast series in the 15/15 Bucking Battle in Del Rio, Texas this coming weekend. That’s really something special! He will also be going to Pecos on February 20 & 21, and then to Longview on February 27 & 28.”
Beau and his dad, Brad.
“We’ve got a bull team for the PBR Velocity Tour,” Beau said. “Austin Patterson is my invaluable right-hand man. He takes the bull team to the Velocity Tour events. I take the young ones to their competitions and I’ll haul the bulls to the PBR Unleash the Beast events this year.”
