Back To Grass Sale - 5th Annual Sale [5/18/24]

Estes Ranch was establish in 1897 on the Texas/ Oklahoma state line near the commu- nities of Shinnery, Texas and Madge, Oklahoma. The ranch started out with commercial Herefords. Then in the 60’s we added Angus bulls to the operation for more hybrid vigor. Next, in 1978 we bought Simmental bulls to increase growth and maternal performance and started building our Simmental herd from the 1/2 blood cows. In 1981 the ranch pur- chased some purebred Simmental cows. Then in 1985 we purchased two 1/4 Simmental 3/4 Brahman bulls to start our Simbrah herd. Today we run 100 Fleckvieh and purebred Simmental cows and over 300 registered and commercial Simbrah cows. Throughout this period we have focused on developing a efficient low maintenance cow with excellent ud- der quality as well as a great set of feet and legs to cover rough terrain. Addi- tionally we have been collecting carcass data on our calves for over 20 years. We have proudly increased our calves from 60% choice to 98% or better in 2023. The cattle you see here today are a result of 6 generations genetic selection to pro- duce the best cattle possible and will be a great addition to anyone’s herd.

Wild Track Cattle was established in 2008 in East Texas around the town of Henderson, Texas. While our time in the actual production phase is short, we have produced a va- riety of high quality cattle. Our history in the Simmental cattle industry begins in 1985 when my Grandfather started purchasing Simmental bulls to run on his crossbred cows to improve weaning weights and to produce females to be kept in the herd. At Wild Track Cattle we try to Produce Simmental and Sim- mental influenced cattle that strive in all aspects of the world, as we run Simmen- tal and Brahman bulls on our Regis- tered and Commercial Cattle. We run 75 registered cattle and 100+ commercial cows. Majority of our Registered Sim- mental cattle go back to Buzzard Hollow Ranch and Estes Ranch Genetics. We strive to produce cattle that have the traits that we think are the most import- ant. We want cattle that are fertile, easy keeping and can produce in the pasture and feedlot.
