Life on the S17 Ranch: Big ol' Bulls

Hey Bully, bully....This was the bull we leased from a good friend of ours who is a fellow bucking bull
breeder. His program is much more developed. I would tell you this bulls name, but I was sworn
to secrecy at this time. That's how exclusive the breeding is....TOP SECRET :) He will be the sire to 
our 2012 calf crop, we can't wait to see what he produces.

I'll post more later, There is a chance that my gelding will be here tonight!!! Most likely tomorrow sometime :)

Hauling water to one of the bucking bulls on the ranch

I really think Neons should come standard with a hay rack on their roof... lol

Holding in the trough....yep I had to hold it all the way down our driveway so it wouldn't fall out. (our driveway to the corral is only 1/4 mile or so :) This was our system for a few months.... Good times!
