Rockin' J Longhorns is located in the gently rolling hills and plains of north central Kansas, just outside the small town of Downs. We are twenty miles straight south of the geographic center of the United States, and are eight miles west of the Waconda Springs. Our longhorn journey began in the spring of 2004 with the purchase of three longhorn heifers. We decided right from the start to have quality over quantity and to breed for the "Total Package", Horns, color, conformation and disposition.

Trail Dust 40

DOB: 01/03/04

Sire: Hunts Command Respect

(75 3/8" T2T 5-time Showcase Champion)

Dam: Saw Dust

(mid 70's T2T @ 5 years old)

99 1/4" Total - 69 1/4" T2T - 15 1/8" Base 

Here is the bull we have all been waiting for. Trail Dust 40 is the longest horned son of Hunts Command Respect in the breed and the 3^rd longest horned bull in the world. He was measured at an unbelievable 97 1/4" total horn at only four years and ten days old witnessed by five people. Many feel he is the most complete son of his famous 5-time Horn Showcase Champion sire, Hunts Command Respect.

His sire is over 75 3/8" T2T and his dam is in the mid 70's T2T at only five years old. His dam is a daughter of Chuckwagon by a daughter of Roundup making him one of the best bred bulls in the industry. With owning the 3-time Horn Showcase Champion bull, Bar B Q, we were looking for a bull to put on his daughters that would produce a HORN explosion. We looked at every bloodline and soon found out the best bull to cross on Roundup would have to be Hunts Command Respect. We set out on a long and hard search to find the best son and know we have found him. Owen McGill’s breeding program has produced some of the best horned bulls and heifers in the industry and we feel very honored to own two great Herd Sires from his program.

Trail Dust has a beautiful smoky/blue color that he passes on to his huge horned calves that are very sought after. Look for the first Bar B Q / Trail Dust crossed calves in the fall of '08.

Bar B Q
DOB: 06/05/99
Roundup x Teriyaki
95 1/8" Total - 69 3/4" T2T - 16 ½" Base
02, 03, 04 Horn Showcase Champion

We think in our humble opinion that Bar B Q is one of, if not the best son of Roundup in service today. And that he is one of the best horn producing Longhorn bulls in the industry. This bull can throw HORN!!! Four year old daughters with over 70" T2T and over 85" total. He has three year old daughters with over 65" T2T and over 75" total. He has two year olds with over 60" T2T and has yearlings over 50" T2T. He has some awesome sons also. One of his daughters named, Bar BQ's Maiden had over 57 1/2" T2T at 25 months old and sold at the 2007 Select Heifer Sale for $30,500.

This Owen McGill bred bull produces it all. Bar B Q is a 3-time Horn Showcase Champion as well. We are breeding him to some of our top foundation cows this year and already have some awesome calves on the ranch with a full calf crop hitting the ground now.
