Speaking of stocking rates I was talking to a rancher in NM a few weeks back. Their stocking rate is a pair (cow/calf) per about 400 acres. Thats why some ranches in the west are so huge.

Yep, several years ago when we were traveling Mom says something along the lines of "those cows would starve to death walking from blade of grass to next blade". We got down around the Texas Bend Big country and Dads says "we fought the indians for this land?" It surely does look barren. Saw them burning spines off cactus so cattle could eat the cactus. A totally different world than back home in NW Alabama.

Very cool article Dave. You do a great job of making people feel cared for and helped. I can't count the number of times you have taken time to help me or numerous others on this site as we learn about knife and sheath making. Congratulations on 20 years of your business!
