Rucker Ranch

Rucker Ranch breeds Wagyu cattle in Haskell, Oklahoma, part of Haskell County and southwest Oklahoma near Lawton. The ranch has been raising Wagyu for over a decade, participating in national herd registry programs and conducting routine genetic and health screenings to ensure herd quality and well-being. Animals graze on native grasses, with regular handling from a young age to foster calm temperaments, and the facilities include spacious paddocks and sheltered loafing areas.

William Rucker embraces a small-scale approach that prioritizes natural breeding cycles and minimal intervention, aiming for animals that reflect the breed’s gentle nature and robust health. A recent visitor noted the animals’ even temper and the ranch’s steady pace, reflecting a commitment to consistent, thoughtful care. Guests often find the pace measured and the atmosphere free of unnecessary stress, letting each animal develop at its own rhythm. The ranch’s modest size allows William Rucker to offer personal oversight for every calf born on the property.
