About Us

Big K Ranch, Ltd. is located in Kent County Texas or "West Texas," about 70 miles east of Lubbock, TX. The rolling plains of Texas in which Big K Ranch is located joins a diverse landscape with moderate rainfall and outstanding range including a variety of wildlife habitat and wildlife populations. Big K Ranch is located in relatively close proximity to renowned ranches, including the Pitchfork Ranch and 6666 Ranch. Our operation is a family owned business with outstanding support from the community. Our business is focused on high-quality Angus genetics — the finest — for low birth weight calves, high growth, and exceptional carcass quality that is predictable. We believe that our operation, in cooperation with our partners, is achieving excellence. We will contribute to Angus genetics through our cooperation on Bon View New Design 1407, as well as progeny development and future matings offering exceptional genetic potential for the future.

Ron & Colleen Kendall
Our family is outdoor oriented and both personally and professionally committed to environmental conservation and natural resource management. In that light, Big K Ranch has cooperated with the Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) through its EQUIP Program to develop and improve wildlife habitat in cooperation with our cattle operation. Our ranch is host to a diverse array of wildlife.

We are proud to have Bon View New Design 1407 as a herd sire. He has a +.0 birth, +88 yearling with high marbling and ribeye, among other outstanding expected progeny differences (EPDs) resulting in a +49.37 $Beef value bull. It is hard to find a "breed-leading number bull" with 1407’s conformation, frame and carcass statistics.

Our partnership builds off the outstanding genetics of Bon View New Design 1407 already revealed in thousands of progeny sold at sales across the country, where outstanding conformation and growth statistics are seen with Bon View New Design 1407’s progeny.

Big K Ranch believes the opportunities for building on outstanding Angus genetics through our partnership in Bon View New Design 1407 as our herd sire, and other proven herd sires, are as big as our West Texas sky. We welcome your interest and invite you to notify us with additional questions on our contact page.
