Notes From J-L

Perfecting our Horsemanship and Roping Skills

Recently the J Bar L cowboys participated in a ranch roping clinic put on by ranch roping specialist and clinician Kip Fladland. Kip has over 27 years of experience, of which 5 were exclusively working with world renown clinician Buck Brannaman. If you would be interested in participating in a horsemanship/basic roping clinic put on by Kip at the J-L Ranch, please contact Joy at 406-684-5435.

Cattle Drive

If participating in a 15 mile cattle drive across the gorgeous Centennial Valley, Montana sounds appealing, then we have the perfect week for you to come join us on the J Bar L Ranch. The week of August 22-28th we will be gathering 1,000 head of yearlings and trailing them from one end of the ranch to the other for more fresh pasture. During this week we will also be turning the bulls into the cow herd and riding daily to monitor the health of over 400 recently branded calves. To make a reservation, please call Joy at 406-684-5435 or click here for more information and rates. http://jbarl.com/working.html

Branding is complete

We just finished branding about 390 calves that were born in June and July. Thanks to the crew of 40+ people, we enjoyed a really fun and efficient branding. A good time was had by all and the calves are all healthy and looking really good. In fact, they are the best set of calves we have ever had. We really appreciate everyone's help and hard work!
