The history of 4 Kings Ranch started in 2013 when we bought a large parcel of land in the bottoms of Webbers Falls, Oklahoma.  Having grown up around cattle and developing a love for the animals as a youngster made the decision to start ranching simple.  The challenge however was what breed to choose.  We knew that commercial was not the route we wanted to go, because of the sheer numbers needed to be profitable.  Also, that we had grown tired of the black hyde or nothing narrative. That's when numerous hours of research on different breeds brought us to the Braunvieh cattle.  The plan at first was to A.I. our black Angus cattle to braunvieh bulls.  Before those calves could be born we had begun buying braunvieh females from various consignment sales.  The thought process was to breed high quality seedstock and grow at a sustainable pace to maintain the quality we desired. We didn't own a bull for the first 3 years, but used artificial insemination as a way to high grade our herd at minimal cost.  As the herd grew and we began producing quality offspring we needed to find a way to promote our stock.  That is when we began sending bulls to Grow Safe Test facilities to measure daily gains and feed efficiency.  This enabled us to prove to customers that we had quality animals and remove the subjective opinions with science.  This coupled with DNA propelled us to the point that we knew we had a superior product.  The opportunity arose to import a large group of heifers from Canada.  The genetics are from some of the first animals imported from Switzerland to North America.  This amazing opportunity will guide 4 Kings Ranch for many years into the future.  The Braunvieh breed is a remarkable adaptable creature able to survive in high mountain altitudes to the plains of South Africa, the jungles and swamps of South America, and everything in between.  They posses unrivaled maternal qualities, fertility, and carcass traits.  Their exceptional outcross abilities shine when producers see the hybrid vigor braunvieh bulls bring to commercial herds.  More pounds, more fertility, more live births and more money.  What can Braunvieh do for you.
