EDITOR’S NOTES HAPPY 2021! While we might not get things back to what we used to consider normal, 2021 already has some promise. The day-to-day routine of many breeders - picking genetics, waiting for offspring to arrive, enjoying their herd... contains many moments of excitement regardless of what the rest of the world is doing. Even more exciting than the fact that there are still plenty of Longhorns selling for good money, is the increased exposure the breed is getting thanks to a Google ad campaign spearheaded by the Marketing Committee and brought to life by Jason Hartline. This exposure is detailed more on pgs 22-24. Folks, the amount of traffic coming to our website in the last 3 or 4 months is double that of prior months. Why does this matter to you? They are going to the Online Breeders Directory and looking for breeders in their area to talk to. They are also accessing the online edition of Trails Magazine. Will they find your contact information in either place? I hope so. If you don’t know how to get there, give me a call and we can find an economical way to get you there. Hopefully, these newly interested folks will attend some industry events in the coming year. In order to get your event on the free magazine and online calendar, you simply submit the information to me, myra@tlbaa.org. The first event to kick off the year is Texas Longhorn Weekend in Fort Worth, TX. This is a great place to come meet folks and see what we’re all about. With meetings, shows, a great Longhorn sale and our annual membership meeting there’s a lot to see and do...and a lot of great people to meet! I would be remiss if I neglected to do the ‘ol “you need to plan out your year” speech, but here it is. To take full advantage of opportunities to market your Longhorns you really need to sit down and look at the industry calendar and decide what you would like to do and how to best promote your program. There are so many opportunities to compete, participate in sales, advertise, sponsor events... it can be overwhelming. If you ever want to discuss how it can all work together to achieve your goals with breaking the bank, just give me a call. Please don’t forget I am always open to story ideas, interview possibilities, photos, “Meet Our Members” submissions, “News on the Trail”... there are many ways to be involved with Texas Longhorn Trails Magazine beyond advertisements. I hope to hear from you in the coming year.

Association News

Chairman’s Message Happy New Year, Longhorn Family, I hope you all had a blessed and wonderful Christmas with your families and friends. I hope that your New Year will be one of growth and profit with your cattle, good health and a positive start for the New Year in all that you do. Praying for a better year than last year for every one of our Longhorn family. This issue of the Trails includes a copy of the financials and our yearly audit of the association and foundation (pgs. 10 & 12), an update from our Marketing Committee and what that means to you, our members (pg.22), as well as the much awaited “Cash Cows” information (pg. 14). Longhorn Weekend is upon us and looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible at the annual meetings, Eddie Wood Cowtown Classic Sale and the Coliseum Clash in Cowtown Show. The meetings will begin on Friday morning with the Affiliate Presidents Meeting. The Board of Directors Meeting will follow, where we will be seating Directors for Division C, as well as placing an Executive Committee. The day will wrap up with the Annual General Membership Meeting and Year End Awards. The “Year End Awards” and “Hall of Fame Award” will be given out on Friday evening, January 15, 2021, starting with a Social and heavy Hors d’oeuvres (finger food to us country folk) at around 5:00 p.m. The awards presentation will follow at 6:00 p.m. This will be a great time to visit, catch up with old friends, make new ones and help celebrate the award winners. Try to attend The Eddie Woods Cowtown Classic on January 16, 2021, either in person or online through Hired Hand. If you have any questions, contact Pam at the TLBAA office or the Sale Chairs, Russell Fairchild 254-485-3434 or Keith Du Bose 979-277-2161. If you are around and can go to the Coliseum Clash at Cowtown Show on January 16-17, 2021, please try and make time go watch and support the Longhorn shows that will be going on. You can find out more about the show, sale and event schedule on the TLBAA website. To my Longhorn Family, Thank You,

Keith Du Bose, Chairman of the Board Texas Longhorn Breeders Association of America

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT To the Board of Directors of Texas Longhorn Breeders Association of America Fort Worth, Texas We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Texas Longhorn Breeders Association of America, which comprise the statement of financial position as of June 30, 2020, and the related statement of activities, functional expenses and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Texas Longhorn Breeders Association of America as of June 30, 2020, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The 60 Longhorns featured on the following pages sold at public auction in 2020 for $10,000 or higher. The total dollar amount represented here is just over $1.4 million. While 2020 was an odd year due to the worldwide Covid-19 pandemic, the Longhorn industry managed to adapt and continue business, even if it was not all as usual. Some public sales had to cancel completely, while others either postponed until later in the year or did an online only version of the sale. The result was that many more people than in the past took advantage of online bidding and some sales actually had a lower number of PO’s. This data does not reflect those animals sold private treaty, but based on the number of registrations and transfers that came in during shut down and after, that part of the market held it’s own as well.

Marketing

2021:

BRAVE NEW YEAR FOR MARKETING

Marketing, both via promotion and public sales, used the same tools for many of years – printed materials, word of mouth and via auction. Then came the internet and added online auctions, marketplaces and the indispensable website. Now we have entered an era of social media marketing, allowing you to put your message in front of thousands of people who meet criteria of your choosing. Not only can you define the audience, but you can “remind” those who clicked your ad that they were interested and drive them to visit your website or fill out a request for information. If that isn’t amazing enough, analytical tools are available that can generate report on number of hits, comments, demographics….the list goes on. And, even if you have no interest in delving into this digital world, you can still easily take advantage of the digital efforts of the association to build your business. Wait, all of this is already being utilized and I can benefit from it? Yes, and the public is responding with an interest in Texas Longhorn cattle. The TLBAA marketing committee’s efforts and utilization of the $10,000 a month advertising grant from Google, as well as the expertise of Jason Hartline of Hartline & Partners is showing results and it is exciting! Building up a campaign and getting results with Google advertising is a process, not a simple throw it out there and it’s done proposition. After running test ads to build a profile of the target audience and seeing what verbiage and methods got the best response, Google ads, Facebook retargeting ads and website landing pages are all in place, working in unison, to help draw in people who are not familiar with Longhorns but would likely be interested in the breed. “The sophisticated system we have developed has proven to be an incredible way to capture and showcase the beauty of the Texas Longhorn,” said Hartline. “I am incredibly excited and humbled by the opportunity to continue to educate folks on this classic, allAmerican breed.”

The TLBAA Board has approved a budget for the committee in the coming year that will allow for the development of a commercial suitable for airing on television as well as through digital media such as YouTube and on displays ant events…the possibilities are endless. Other items will be worked on as well such as a new general information brochure extolling the benefits of owning this magnificent breed of cattle and the fellowship present among breeders of the cattle. The goal of all these efforts is to make those who have not previously even known about Longhorns, want to own Longhorns. “The Texas Longhorn is the ultimate cattle breed,” said committee chair Mark Hubbell, of Hubbell Longhorns. “We are encouraged and thrilled with the success we have seen through these marketing initiatives. It is exciting to show their beauty and opportunity to the world and continue to educate, and encourage potential breeders to get involved with the Texas Longhorn industry.” So what does this all mean? What happens when people click on an ad on Facebook or Google? Those clicks take potential new owners to custom landing pages designed specifically to address them with the same emphasis that the ad that made them click. So, for instance, if they saw an ad about Trails Magazine and clicked it, the landing page leads them to past issues as well as videos of those who are current breeders. They can fill out a form to get on the E-Trails mailing list or click to go to the online breeders directory to find people in their area to talk to and potentially buy from. Not on that page? More info on that in a bit. All of this effort is designed to get them to want to take the next step of buying Longhorns and thus growing the market for the good of the entire industry. It will mean more new people at sales, more people looking at private treaty animals, and hopefully an increase in membership and growing base of buyers and breeders. How do you tap in to this stream of new people and

Marketing a growing market presence? The number one, most economical way of promotion is to be on the Online Breeders Directoy at www.tlbaa.org. For $240 per year you get your ranch listed in as much or as little detail as you wish. Think of it as a mini web page that can serve as a launching point for someone to find your website, Facebook page or simply reach out to you via email or mail. Other options include the small Breeders Guide ads in Trails Magazine for $365 per year to allow people to find you easily under your state heading. Web button ads and Trails Magazine ads of various sizes are also available. The magazine posts online free for the world to find and read. All ads, regardless of size, will link to any social media, email or web page that is included in the ad, making it easy for someone to reach out to you. Being a part of your association’s presence is a great way to gain much broader exposure. Granted, there are those who may simply Google Texas Longhorn in whatever state they are from, in which case you want to make sure the text on your website is very relevant and allows

people looking in your area to find your web page easily. Not everyone has an active web page though, and being on the TLBAA website or in Trails Magazine can still increase the likelihood of people searching Longhorn and your state will find your information. What if they don’t choose to contact you? Well, the reality of selling anything is that buyers may not contact you directly at first, but they may attend a sale or show and think “hey I remember their website / ad/ Facebook page and I liked what I saw.” That could lead to bids on your sale animals or them approaching you to talk about Longhorns since your marketing left a good impression on them. As we move into 2021 you have committees actively working in the areas of beef, marketing and events such as shows and Horn Showcase that are going to do all they can to take advantage of the opportunities afforded via the Google ads, Facebook, Trails Magazine and the TLBAA website to draw people in. It is up to you to make your program known in a way they are likely to find it when they are looking to buy.

Longhorn Beef

By Myra Basham

Shipping Beef Products Shipping products of any kind can get expensive, but the cost of shipping perishable beef products and the logistics involved often prevent people from giving it a try. Suzanne Smith of Southern Longhorns ships Longhorn beef regularly and offered the following advice based on her experiences with shipping: • Only ship on Monday or Tuesday. These are the two days of the week that offer the deepest discount on overnight, or depending on location, 2-day shipping. • Reusing the boxes the beef comes in works great as it is already marked perishable. You can insulate it and place the dry ice right on top. We have order from U-Line which is pricey, but it comes ready to go so for smaller shipments it’s not too bad. • In state (TX) we charge a flat $40 rate plus $10 for the dry ice. When shipping out of state we get the price for their state and then add the $10. I ship to NY, TN, Utah on a regular, shipping is typically around $50 to $60. Again, make sure you only quote shipping on a Monday or a Tuesday. Otherwise, you’re going to see prices in the triple digits. • There are also do it yourself shipping services like goperishable.com that offers consumers their volume discount with FedEx and have environmentally friendly options on shipping coolers. The USDA offers the following advice when packaging and shipping food: • Ship in a sturdy box. • Pack with a cold source, i.e., frozen gel packs or dry ice. • When using dry ice: – Don’t touch the dry ice with bare hands. – Don’t let it come in direct contact with food. – Warn the recipient of its use by writing “Contains Dry Ice” on the outside of the box. • Wrap box in two layers of brown paper.

USDA ILLUSTRATION OF RECOMMENDED PACKAGING WHEN SHIPPING BEEF. • Use permanent markers to label outside of the box. Use recommended packing tape. • Label outside clearly; make sure address is complete and correct. • Write “Keep Refrigerated” on outside of the box. • Alert recipient of its expected arrival. • Do not send to business addresses or where there will not be adequate refrigerator storage. • Do not send packages at the end of the week. Send them at the beginning of the week so they do not sit in the post office or mailing facility over the weekend. For beef, keeping cold is key, and the USDA says beef should arrive frozen or cold. When stored at a refrigerator temperature of 40 degrees it should be good for 3-5 days. Freezer storage at 0 degrees should keep the beef good for one year.

Snow drifts may be an obvious hindrance to check before working cattle, but all gates and chutes should be checked for frozen gate hinges and latches before cattle are moved in, as well as ice on pathways.

“I keep trying to come up with ways to create a sock for a syringe, like cutting off the finger of a big glove, making a slit for the needle to go through. A person could use duct tape to attach a needle cap at that end, to protect the needle,” she says. A person might use a big oven mitt to create an insulated “holster” for a syringe. There are many ways you could keep it from freezing. Watch the outdoor temperature. “If it’s 36 degrees, the vaccine and syringes will be fine in a cooler without anything to keep it warm, because that’s the lower end of the window for vaccine temperature. Doing my studies with coolers, I found that at 29 degrees, a pint of hot water in a good cooler will keep the vaccine within proper temperature range for 4.5 hours. If it’s 13 degrees outside, you only have about 3 hours before the pint cools too much and it gets too cold inside the cooler. You might need to have the cooler inside your pickup with the heater running.” Wind chill makes a difference; your needle may freeze up even when you don’t expect it. A cold, sunny day without wind will be less problem than a sunless windy day. “You might have to place your coolers out of the wind, and on the sunny side of where people are standing/working. Don’t underestimate the value of putting a cap on the needle and

putting the syringe under your coat or in an inside pocket of your coveralls or vest, to take advantage of body heat,” says Williams. Having some needle caps/covers handy can be useful. Check all facilities ahead of time to make sure they are functional. Check the chute and any moving parts, and make sure the working alleys and crowding chutes are in good repair, and gates aren’t frozen down or immobile in a snow drift. “I went to help tag 4-H steers one year and we had to make a new plan because snow drifts made it impossible to open a gate. Walk through everything ahead of time.” Then you can shovel out snow or chop away the ice to where gates will swing properly. “Be sure walkways and working areas are safe and as ice-free as possible so people won’t get hurt. In winter we are all bundled up and not as agile, and move a lot slower because we have more clothes on,” says Williams. __________________________ Want a handy resource for articles about herd management?

WITH JULIE PACK, DVM

Doc, my show calves all have diarrhea! What should I do?

Tis the season! With cold weather, the stress of weaning and halter breaking, going to their first shows and getting introduced to new calves and places someone is bound to pick something up and bring it home to share around the show barn. Just like kids at kindergarten. So what do you do now? Some calves may just have a touch of stress diarrhea and these will clear up with a little extra hay and some time to relax at home. Others will have actually picked something up at the show and will need a little extra help. If the diarrhea does not clear up on it’s own with hay and rest at the house in a couple of days you should call your vet to discuss further treatment options. Some of the other causes of diarrhea in calves are protozoa like coccidia, bacteria like E. coli and salmonella and plain old intestinal worms. Each required a different treatment regimen and while most can be treated with over the counter medications some do require prescription medications. Remember, if your calves share water troughs and eat together out of a feed bunk you may need to treat the entire pen even if only one animal is showing signs of being sick a home. Some things you can do to help contain the spread of any infectious causes are to not share water buckets at shows or futurities, clean and disinfect feed and water buckets with a 10% bleach solution when you return home (before you use them again make sure they have had time to thoroughly dry in the direct sun) and consider adding commercially available electrolytes to your animal’s water starting a few days before the show and continuing a few days after the show to help with maintaining hydration. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure! Until next time, may your pastures be green and your calves be healthy! Dr. Pack is a large animal veterinarian specializing in reproduction, and has been a member of the TLBAA since 1996.

Trailing History

The American Revolution, Texas and Longhorn Cattle Submitted by Tina Du Bose In the United States, most remember studying the American Revolutionary War. Highlights of that history included the Boston Tea Party, the signing of the Declaration of Independence, George Washington crossing the Delaware and the surrender of Cromwell. If you grew up in Texas, another part of our curriculum was Texas History. Part of that Texas history lesson focused on the Spanish territory which comprised what is now the State of Texas, as well as Louisiana. I never thought these two sets of history lessons were connected. In my mind’s eye, I always saw the American Revolution focusing on the 13 Colonies and their fight for independence with their locale on the eastern part of the Americas. The Spanish rule of Texas always focused on lands west of the Mississippi. I learned much later in life that there was a connection between the colonist fight for freedom, the Spanish rule in Texas and of all things, Longhorn cattle. Those familiar with Texas History know that during the 18th century, there were established settlements around Bexar, La Bahia and Nacogdoches, along with active missions. There were also several Spanish Ranches in these areas and eastward, where large number of Texas cattle grazed, our Longhorn cattle’s ancestors. By the late 1770’s, the British Colonist had begun their fight for Independence from Britain. The fight for Independence came with a heavy price. The British set up blockades along the eastern ports. Supplies could not reach the Colonies, the Continental Army or her Militia. Spain sees this as an opportunity. Under a Royal Order from Charles III (Carlos III) of Spain, aid is given to the American Colonist. Bernardo de Galvez, a Spanish Military Leader and Colonial Governor of Louisiana, worked with certain well known United States founding fathers, such as Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry. The new republic needed a secure route to get supplies to the Colonist and Continental Army. Galvez secured the port of New Orleans and supplies were shipped from this port up the Mississippi River. In 1779, Charles III of Spain declares War against Great Britain. Now the British forces were fighting on two fronts. Charles III, commissions Galvez to raise and lead Spanish forces to fight in what is known as the West Indies and Gulf Coast Campaign. Galvez was faced with a dilemma, providing food for his soldiers. Galvez recalled while

32 | January 2021

fighting the Apaches in Chihuahua, he had learned about the overabundance of roaming cattle on ranches in BexarLa Bahia, possibly hundreds of thousands. But these cattle were prohibited from export out of the province. Galvez sent an emissary, with a letter to the Texas Colonial Governor, Domingo Cabello, requesting authorization to ship Texas cattle out of the province to Louisiana. The request was granted and the first official cattle drive out of Texas took place. In the summer of 1779, approximately 2000 head of cattle departed from present day Goliad at the Presidio La Bahia, heading eastward towards Louisiana. From that time to 1782, about 10,000 to 15,000 head of Texas cattle were rounded up. The cattle, along with horses were provided to Galvez’ army from ranchers between San Antonio and Goliad. The cattle were divided up into herds of 1000 head, then driven from Texas to Louisiana by soldiers, militiamen, priest, Indians and vaqueros from San Antonio de Bexar and La Bahia eastward. Because of hostile Indians in Texas, the cattle were driven to New Orleans by way of Nacogdoches on what is known as the El Camino Real or King’s Highway. In Nacogdoches, the Spanish militia leader was Antonio Gil Ybarbo. Antonio Gil Ybarbo owned a ranch in present day Nacogdoches County. Cattle from his ranch were added to the herd driven to Galvez. The cattle left Nacogdoches and traveled east through Natchitoches and Opelousas to New Orleans. The Spanish troops were fed. In conclusion, Spain through the efforts of Galvez and ranchers like Antonio Gil Ybarbo, the British were defeated. This allowed the port of New Orleans to remain open and supplies to be shipped. This success provided a turning point for the ragtag Continental Army and their fight for freedom. Statues of Bernardo de Galvez, Antonio Gil Ybarbo and the Vaqueros stand tall in Texas, recognizing them for their contribution to Texas and the American Revolution. The Daughters of the American Revolution and officials in Congress have erected plaques honoring Galvez for his contribution. Tribute to Antonio Gil Ybarbo, the Vaqueros and the eastward cattle drive are also on display at the Nacogdoches Visitor Center in Nacogdoches, Texas. This display was donated by former TLBAA President, Dr. William D. Clark.

MEET OUR MEMBERS

Chris Hesse DCT Cattle Co • Sanger, TX 1. How did you get started in the Texas Longhorn business? In the spring of 2019 my family purchased land outside of Sanger TX. The gentleman who was going to lease the property got ill and could not follow through. I decided to get my own cattle and responded to a random craigslist ad about Texas Longhorns. That ad was by Ryan Culpepper. We quickly hit it off and agreed that he was to find me 2-3 head of my own, show me the ropes and I would lease him the rest for $1/ac... Here we are, not 2 yrs later and he has 2-3 head out here, DCT has over 40. 2. What are a few highlights of your current Texas Longhorn program? With the help of Mr. Culpepper, I think DCT has assembled a unique herd of elite cattle across a broad range of bloodlines. Together, we tried to convince some of the best breeders in the country to sell top animals to us. For the most part, we were successful in that quest. Our foundation is set to help push the breed forward in future generations. We are specifically excited about our heifers and are focused on them being the next generation of industry leaders. You can see our herd at www.DCTCattle.com or we welcome visitors all the time! 3. What are your future goals for your Texas Longhorn program? The future of DCT is continue to pursue and breed cattle of proper conformation, body condition, and avoid single trait selection. The goal is a “total package” herd. That, and maybe figure out how to quit my day job, still put food on the table for my children and just work with these great animals. That’s a tricky one, but where there’s a will there’s a way.

TEXAS LONGHORN BREEDERS OF TOMORROW

Presidents

Message

2021 has a nice ring to it, but who knows if things will be any different than 2020. Every year, we look forward to ringing in a New Year, gathering around the ceremonial chime of midnight with friends and family and making New Year’s resolutions. I’m sure many of my agricultural peers share similar resolutions and goals regarding our cattle programs, FFA competitions and personal growth in showmanship and speech. Goals are a necessary part of life and New Year’s Eve is a great time to reflect. 2020 presented many unique challenges to all of us. Definitely, a year that will be remembered in the history books, along with other events like the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl. History is one of my favorite subjects and living through such a notable time adds to my reflection of the year. 2020 presented many unique challenges to all of us and I watched as people found ways to be positive, even during the worst of days. Many shows were cancelled and those shows that did proceed were faced with new hurdles. At the NTLBA Holiday Extravaganza, the much anticipated buckles were delayed due to shut downs at the production facility. In lieu of a shiny, traditional buckle the champions took pictures with rolls of toilet paper and a promise that the well deserved buckle would be on it’s way. I witnessed smiles, laughter and general goodwill about the situation. Bloom where you are planted…..What if we embraced that attitude every day. Days filled with laughter and smiles, filled with joy like the Rylee Yarborough & Jackson Grace day your buckle arrives or a long-anticipated heifer is born. Smiling “2020... Nothing more to say. Your buckle is on the way! because you know that hard work will always be rewarded. Maybe today, you’re handed a roll of toilet paper but the real prize is on it’s way. Be patient. Celebrate each day. Find enthusiasm about local buckle shows and don’t spend too much time on the disappointing cancellations of the majors. My goal this year is to make every day a special day with purpose and enthusiasm. Let’s ring in the New Year together- may it be a year filled with many days in the show ring with friends!

Happy New Year, Jacob Lowrie

Jackson Grace, 16 years old and a sophomore at Fort Worth Country Day, has been showing Longhorns for 9 years and currently serves as the TLBT treasurer. Jackson shows a full sting of animals, including bulls. Jackson takes the bull by the horns and exhibits with confidence and grace. “Showing bulls can be an interesting experience, but I try to break them the same way as my heifers. We start by having them in a control halter and dragging a lead. We get them used to us coming in and out of their pen with feed and hay and just “hanging” with them. From there we move on to touching, petting, tying up to feed, and walking to water. Once they lead to water easily we progress to leading around the arena and start to introduce the show stick.Bulls can be headstrong. They want to be in charge, but it’s important that you make sure they know you aren’t going to let them. Be CONFIDENT (but also safe).” Jackson participates in athletics at his school. Do strategies on the field help in the show ring? “I play on the O-line and D-line for my school’s football team and I also wrestle. Showing a bull, once it’s decided it WANTS to be a bull, often requires the strength and technique I have learned to protect my QB, push past the other team’s O-line, or pin my next opponent.” Jackson shares his advice - “One of the most important skills I have learned so far in my life, I have learned from showing longhorns. PERSEVERANCE. Yes, I’m tired and it’s hot or the other guy is bigger than me or my animal is acting up, but I try my best to NEVER QUIT. Keep playing, keep wrestling, keep showing, keep going. Life isn’t easy and it isn’t always gonna give you a time-out. No matter what you do, just commit to giving it your ALL. Whether it be showing, playing baseball, or competing in the state spelling bee, go out there and give it your best, and DON’T BACK DOWN! Jackson’s favorite quote “Gold medals aren’t really made of gold. They’re made of sweat, determination, and a hard-to-find alloy called guts.” - Dan Gable It takes GUTS to show Longhorns. It takes GUTS to succeed at life. - Jackson Grace

NEWS On the Trail... Lone Star Ag Credit and Four Sixes Supply House Present Commemorative Cattle Drive to Honor the Late Anne Marion Fort Worth, Texas (December 2, 2020)—Four Sixes Supply House, Lone Star Ag Credit and the Fort Worth Herd participated in “Point Em’ West,”” an extended cattle drive on Wednesday, December 2 at 4 p.m. to honor the late Anne Marion, a trailblazer in Western culture and business. Great-great-granddaughter of Samuel “Burk” Burnett, founder of Four Sixes Ranch, Marion was a rancher, horse breeder, business executive, philanthropist and art collector from Fort Worth. Her significant contributions brought to life construction and design of a new building for the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth in 2002. She was the founder of the Georgia O’Keefe Museum in Santa Fe, New Mexico and was inducted into the Hall of Great Westerners of the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum among many other accomplishments. Marion also served as the City of Fort Worth’s honorary trail boss in the Fort Worth Herd’s inaugural cattle drive held on June 13, 1999. Marion passed away in February. “We were so honored to be part of this special cattle drive,” said Kristin Jaworski, trail boss of the Fort Worth Herd. “Anne Marion was an important female leader in Fort Worth and in Western culture and paved the way for many with her philanthropy and leadership.” The commemorative cattle drive followed an extended route starting at the Fort Worth Livestock Exchange building then headed west across North Main Street onto West Exchange Ave ending at the new, seasonal Four Sixes Supply House at 200 West Exchange Ave. The underwriter of the commemorative cattle drive was Lone Star Ag Credit, a longtime supporter of the ru-

Riders from 6666 Ranch participated in the drive with a riderless horse in honor of Anne Marion, the honorary Trail Boss of the Fort Worth Herd’s very first trail drive.

ral lifestyle by financing land, country homes and production agriculture for more than 100 years. “Lone Star Ag Credit has deep roots within its communities and takes tremendous pride in supporting the agricultural way of life and the rural lifestyles we serve,” said Joe Hayman, CEO of Lone Star Ag Credit. “We were honored to partner with such a legendary ranch and to help kick-off the National Finals Rodeo in Tarrant County.” The Four Sixes cowboys from the legendary Four Sixes Ranch joined the Fort Worth Herd for the cattle drive. “In the ranch’s 150th year, our connection to the Burnett legacy of strength, faith, integrity and excellence couldn’t be stronger,” explained Brandie Blodgett Mustian, Manager of Four Sixes Retail Division. “Our cowboys came to Fort Worth to pay tribute to the vision and leadership of Mrs. Marion in a touching way that is traditional in our western culture. Mrs. Marion’s longtime friend Red Steagall hosted a program when the herd reached Four Sixes Supply House on West Exchange.” Four Sixes Ranch is part of the Burnett Ranches LLC, known as one of the most storied family-run businesses in Texas history. Founded by Captain Samuel “Burk” Burnett in 1870 when he purchased 100 head of cattle wearing the “6666” brand from Frank Crowley of Denton, Texas. Today, Burnett Ranches encompasses 260,000 acres including the Four Sixes Ranch headquarters. Prior to the cattle drive a new Texas Longhorn steer was introduced to the Fort Worth Herd with a special naming ceremony. The name “Tahmahkera” was nominated and selected in honor of Comanche Chief Quanah Parker. Local civic leader Ben Tahmahkera is the great-great-grandson of Quanah Parker. The newly named steer brought the 1999 inaugural cattle drive full circle. Anne Marion and Ben Tahmahkera are the same line of descension from Burk Burnett and Quanah Parker. On that first drive through the city, the two civic leaders paused at the north steps of Tarrant County Court House to remember their ancestors’ mutual respect and progressive business relationship that established routes to the railheads of Kansas.

How To Appear In “News On the Trail” “News on the Trail” is a celebration of life and industry accomplishments for TLBAA members and their families. You do not have to make national news or be given a national award. You merely have to reach a milestone or in some way represent the Longhorn breed in your community, state or via media coverage. So, if the local news station or a regional magazine stops by to shoot some footage of Longhorns let us know! If a blog post is used online or if you participated in a news story or publication article, send us a link or copy of it. (Please note, unless permission is given by the publisher, we cannot reprint anything exactly as it appeared, rather we will let people know how to find it.) If a tour group from a school, civic group or another country comes to see and learn about Texas Longhorns, shoot some photos and send us a brief write-up. Email myra@tlbaa.org with submissions.

No Stage Fright for TK Lee

A TV Company looking for Longhorns to include in a commercial reached out recently to Rocking B Longhorns and owner Dr. Gene Berry welcomed them to his property in Baton Rogue, LA. The first time the crew came out to shoot footage they used drones and shot lots of footage. The cows, nervous about the drones, gave them lots of good footage of them running away said Berry. When they returned they were there for less than an hour and drone free. The bull in the photos is TK Lee and Berry says even though he was new to the ranch, he took the film crew in stride, and just layed there taking it all in, never bothered by any of it.

Gleason and the TLBAA Get Local Press Coverage Janet Gleason of Big Valley Longhorns recently had the chance to feature her Longhorns in an article published in The Morning Sun, a newspaper covering Pittburg and southeast Kansas since 1887. The paper also reached out to the TLBAA for a little background on the breed, bringing attention to the association as well. Good job, Janet and thanks for including us.
