This November, we featured four #HiredHandPowered websites showcasing Longhorns in Oklahoma, Missouri, and Michigan. Scroll to view these unique Hired Hand website designs and to see how each utilizes their site to promote their animals and programs.
Cattle Breed Websites:
About the Diamond HRT Ranch website:
Breed: Registered Texas Longhorns
Location: Atoka, Oklahoma
Contact: Randy & Tricia Hickman
Set Up/Design: Mix & Match
Functionality Package: Wrangler
Diamond HRT Ranch relocated to Atoka, Oklahoma, just about 2 hours from the Hickman's home in McKinney, Texas, due to needing more space for their new passion, Longhorns. They invested in registered longhorns and began attending longhorn specific sales and events and soon discovered that there is more to love about the Longhorn industry than just the cows.
With about 100 head of cattle, their herd is very diverse. They aren’t concentrating on any one quality or trait but instead have some cows with length, some with twist, some big-bodied ones, some more petite, some with lots of color, some with less, and they love them all!

The animals and pedigrees within this herd are best described as the "Longhorn Melting Pot of the Midwest." At Hat Creek, they continually seek to raise animals they consider to be the complete package with desirable characteristics that maintain and pass on the legacy of the Texas Longhorn: conformation, color, docility, efficiency, and horn set.

About the Twisted A Longhorns website:
Breed: Texas Longhorns
Location: Dowling, Michigan
Contact: Ryan & Audrey Andrews
Set Up/Design: Simple Template
Functionality Package: Wrangler
The story of Twisted A Longhorns is a familiar story among many Texas Longhorn breeders. What started as an interest in the animals soon became purchasing 3 steers, which became attending GTLA meetings, which became attending sales, which became doubling their herd and never looking back.
"We were hooked and in total awe of these beautiful, docile, majestic animals," says Audrey Andrews. "We continue to be in awe and are striving to build a healthy, colorful herd with unique/solid pedigrees, a respectful disposition and impressive horns. The longhorn community is comprised of some genuinely kindhearted individuals with a common passion for an amazing breed and we are proud to be part of it."

About the Bryant Cattle Company website:
Breed: Texas Longhorns
Location: Camargo, Oklahoma
Contact: Kevin & Jodi Bryant
Set Up/Design: Mix & Match
Functionality Package: Wrangler
Bryant Cattle Company attempts to raise quality Texas Longhorn cattle, knowing that not every cow is going to be that over 80 inch cow or bull. "We strive on every breeding to go over the mark. We want a sellable color besides straight solid white and red cattle. Keeping in mind that not every animal will meet the standards of our breeding program, and thus make healthy lean beef. By keeping this philosophy it allows us to maintain a herd that has good manners, to purchase other cattle for lean beef and keep the cycle going."
