  1. We do a lot of heeling and dragging. You can't see it in the photo but that's how they caught that one and brought it to the fire.
  2. They could also be using a rubber band instead of actually cutting the calves. Or using a branding table....I keep getting told they are more efficient and better but I don't see it. The 6666's covers 225 square miles, if they wanted to electric brand I am certain they could. I imagine it's just simpler for them to fire brand. I am certainly not going to suggest to Tom, Boots, or Wes that they do it differently.
  3. well since your such a big fan... Calf fries anyone?
  4. Well if you are going to insist on Urban discussion....Do you think if OSU somehow loses Saturday or doesn't get picked for the playoff....would that speed the timeline up any or still wait for their season to end?
  5. I guess we could always ask these guys about western fashion. about 150 years or so of working cowboy right there....and yes, under their chaps all 3 have boots that go up to their knees.
  6. From what I have been around getting your foot in stirrup isn't the problem with big square toes......its getting your foot out when your falling off.....I know some cowboys who ride with square toes and I know some who don't anymore. I can't remember which ranch it was, might have been 6666's, but one banned their cowboys from riding with square toed boots after a bunch of said accidents.
  7. That would depend on the part of the state your in. Up here you gotta chase way too many cattle through brush country to do it from a truck.
  8. I'll agree if talking the full on duck feet looking square toes. The narrower square toes work fine for dressier occassions.
  9. Technically the John Wayne Square toe is more of a snip toe then full square. I have a pair of Lucchese's with the John Wayne toe like below. They are dang comfortable. My grandfather had 2 pairs of Leddys which I would love to get pair of but I can't convince myself to spend that much cash on boots.
  10. Well I'm out on contributing to any buyout. Just picked up a 1st edition of A Christmas Carol from a local ranching family.
  11. Let me ask you this, does Brady Quinn dress like the kind of person you tell stuff to you want to keep quiet and hush hush?
  12. I don't know, considering Sam Lucchesee reated a square toe design specifically for John Wayne.....I figure he was fine with square toes. "Peck wasn’t the only familiar face to call on Lucchese, either. In October 1951, a tall man blew through the door into Lucchese’s shop and requested a pair of boots with a distinctive square toe. But this man was more popular than Peck, at least at the time. Though he’d been cast in small roles since the 1920s, his career had really taken off two years earlier, with a starring role in war film that had earned him an Academy Award nomination. The man, of course, was John Wayne, and he was at the start of his career as an All-American Western hero. So naturally, he needed a pair of cowboy boots. The square toe on his boots became known as the famous – and controversial – “John Wayne Toe,” and like Peck, Wayne became a frequent customer and proponent of Lucchese. In fact, several of his style of boots – notably goat and alligator leather – can be found on the Lucchese website. "
  13. Derpy was spilling the beans so CTJ sent him the PM version of the Ring video....
  14. They have a shop in Cameron, tx or you can order it. https://www.44steaks.com/products/44-farms-usda-choice-or-higher-brisket
  15. Just get yourself a 44 farms brisket. If it's good enough for Franklin and Louie Miller's it should work.
  16. I was told it was a no go because of the Texas Relays........like we can't host that somewhere else......
  17. El Paso is closer to San Diego than it is to Houston Beaumont is closer to Tampa than El Paso. Brownsville is closer to Mexico City than DFW. Texarkana is closer to Atlanta than El Paso. Corpus is closer to Cuba than Denver. Austin is closer to New Orleans than El Paso
  18. You'd be surprised. I work with a lot of "absentee landowners"---read big money deep pocketed people who live in metro areas but own large expanses of ranch/farm land as either a tax writeoff/shelter or beause it's Texas and that's what we do here. Plenty of them have their ranch managers manage specifically for cattle or crop production without a care for wildlife production. It makes more sense for them to pay some fancy guided hunting operation to line them up on a $10-$15,000 buck and be done with it then to try and manage and hunt on their own land. I do have one gentleman I work with that owns a large spread that is managed for wildlife...he owns the place and still calls it the hunting lease.....
  19. In defense of the Fox thing it has been reported since all this started that he wants to fulfill his commitment to Fox.
  20. Complete respect to DKR but he also picked McWilliams for us so.....
  21. This fits with a lot of what has been reporting and I have no connections of any kind that would give me any reason to dispute it... But I am shocked/disappointed that CDC has gone from being this out of this world awesome hire to a political suit who is in over his head and deserves to be called Crystal.... just surprising. But like I said it fits and goes along with Caddox losing his mind on here a week ago....just really disappointed in CDC
  22. If Herman is indeed our coach in the fall......knot hole tickets will be for sale again and attendance may mirror the covid games this season....
