Our herd sires are from a variety of genetics that we have searched for over the years of breeding cattle. We select for; Calving Ease, Fertility, Performance, Eye Appeal, Carcass Value and Disposition. We have retained some of the top maternal traits out of our cows from these sires too. Their dam's are some of our top females with several generations to look back on for reference. Big volume cattle with width, heart girth and structurally sound feet and legs are one of our selection criteria's.
We use A. I. and Embryo in our herd and clean up with our Herd Sires for a varied calf crop. We aim to produce the highest quality animal for our program and our customers.

Viagra (a name most folks don't forget) consistently produced growth and good framed cattle that excel. Breeding bulls that matured quickly and bred power genetics from the Dragon and Northstar Vernon blood lines. His females grew fast and matured quickly and we were able to breed most of them at a year of age due to their extreme growth pattern. We used him in the clean up program for several years and we ran out of use for him but found a program that can utilize his powerful bloodlines. Sold to Nohavitza Ranch in Texas.
Number two in the breed for Yearling EPD.







- Sire: Silverwood Dragon 4Y OB3578
Magnum was a Silverwood Dragon son out of the famous 814 cow. He was produced from a flush that we purchased from her in 1997. Magnum was a keeper from the very beginning. Our friend Robert Goodwin saw his potential and acquired half interest in him when he was just a yearling. He spent most of his time in south Texas on Roberts ranch and only made it back to Oklahoma once for our production sale one year. He met an untimely death when lighting struck 11 head of Roberts. We were all saddened to loose him so young. But his bulls and heifers have left his mark on several herds. Fancy moderate framed cattle that had great eye appeal and performance. Semen Available

- Largest framed bull we ever used in our program but he had the best calving ease of almost any sire we used. We used him safely on heifers. His daughters are simply awesome in all categories. They have perfect udders, are great mothers and have great dispositions. He had extreme bone and was very good on his feet and legs. If you want to add frame, bone, muscle, length and depth to your herd. Use Turnpike. He is the grand sire to TLCC Hardy. Turnpike is no longer in the herd. He passed away in 2006. He was a big gentle giant at the Thorne Ranch for many years. He adds milk and pounds at weaning.
