GENETICS

RJF Texas Rebel has a pedigree jam packed with special genetics. *Justin Rombeck highlights some of these influential genetics for us.

On the top, his sire is Jammin Tex, a son of WS Jamakizm, known for his big body, strong legs, horn length and his brindle coloring. Jammin Tex’s dam is Texana Garland Gal, sold for $90 000.00 in 2016. At the time her horns measured 92″ TTT. What’s more, Texana Garland Gal, her sire Tejas Star and his full sister Texana Van Horne are all legends in their own right.

Also, as if that’s not enough, RJF Texas Rebel’s dam is HL Awesome Reb.

HL Awesome Reb recently sold for $140 000.00. Incidentally, a few years ago Bentwood Ranch had purchased her for $16 000.00, not at all bad for a return on investment!

HL Awesome Reb is sired by Rebel HR, the same sire who sired HR Rosette.

HR Rosette sold on auction in 2022 for $700 000.

Furthermore, he is totally an influencer in the industry.

  •  PROGENY

It is simple!  RJF Texas Rebel’s performance has been awesome. In essence, the proof of good genetics and great genetics is in the progeny.

Even though this is his first year on the job, RJF TEXAS REBEL produced calves at a remarkable ratio of 80% heifers to 20% bulls. Additionally, he works like clockwork and the babies arrive right on time.

What’s more, each longhorn calf is stunning from the first day. The calves are like our children so we know we are subjective when we say that.

Therefore, rather than highlight what we like about these predictable genetics in words, here are photos of some of his first season of longhorn calves. This way,  you can be the judge….

In brief, here are a few characteristics to look out for:-

  • strong top line
  • sturdy legs
  • coloration
  • body conformation
  • muscling

These babies are too young to show their horn development but we know the potential is there for shape and size.
