Welcome to our web site!
My
name is Ron Jones and my wife, Jo and I, welcome you to our Texas Longhorn site. Enjoy the tour and if you see
something you like, please feel free to contact us.
Gunman was born in 1993 and used only 3 years on our small herd. We had only 1 cow at that time with over 50" of
horn tip to tip. We have built our herd upon GUNMAN genetics. Most all of the Gunman sons and daughters you see
throughout the U.S. and Canada were bred and born here in Salida, Colorado. Gunman bred cattle usually have alot of
low, lateral horn that measures well tip to tip! Most cattle born on our ranch carry the "J.R." prefix indicating
they were born here at Jones Ranch...by Jo and Ron!
We usually have a price on some of our cattle. This price is as stable as the stockmarket...they change
daily sometimes! If you find a price you like give us a call. It pays to check back often as we sometimes have
some real "specials"!!
Gandi, Dandi, and Friends! Dandi is by Gunman. She has been purchased from us by Joshua Cashman. Gandi
is a granddaughter of Gunman out of Dandi. She is pictured as a 2 year old. Go see her pictures and see how her
horns twist out to an amazing 74.5"ttt by the time she turns 6!
K. C. Just Respect welcomes you to our web site!!
Breeding our linebred Gunman females to the great Premium bull has given us the best class of '05 heifers in the country
according to Dick Lowe of Triple R Ranch in Horton Michigan!! He'd traveled the country and seen the rest when he made
this statement in the fall of '06. Journey through our web site and see if you find these heifers and their families.
Enjoy!
Updates: We have just weaned the best set of calves we've ever had. They received their first set of vaccines
in July and their second in Sept. We just entered the pedigrees for these '08 calves on our web site; the substance
and depth and quality of these pedigrees are very sound!! Gunman gives us that early and lateral horn growth.
Premium gives us early and late horn growth...with a twist... and perfect conformation. K.C. Just Respect gives us more
frame with perfect conformation, color golore...with specks, LATE horn growth with abundant thickness of horn.
All three bulls give us excellent Disposition on their progeny. We are starting the new year off with lowering
most of our prices and pricing cattle that we have never priced before! Like last year we experienced a cold winter
with alot of snow and we were short on hay. We vaccinated all of our cattle on 6-13-09. We have new
measurements on most of our cattle. We put K.C. Just Respect out with the majority of our cows on June
30th.-'09. Viking was put out the same day with our heirers and a few cows. Don't miss
our Sale...every day 24/7!!
We recently sold 4 cows to Bob Mottel, Lee Harvill, and Wendel Collins of Sheveport, La. We took them to the Legacy
Sale where Bob and Lee picked them up to transport the cows on down to Sheveport. We were please to see K.C. Hershey's
Kiss sell there at the sale for $65000! She is a 2/3 sister to our K.C.Just Respect as they are both sired by the
great but short lived bull, Hunts Demand Respect (plus they both have Gunman genetics). Our friend, Craig Perez, said
"Anyone that hasn't figured out Hunt's "Demand" Respect's power by now has their eyes and ears closed!"
Jo and I have an executive board meeting every morning of the year outdoors before sunup. We make all of our executive
decisions for the day at that time...like who will take out the trash. From where we sit our cattle program really looks
good!!
