Shockley Ranch Herefords

Shockley Ranch Herefords has been raising registered Hereford cattle in Poteau, Oklahoma since 1998, making it one of the longer-running Hereford programs in the eastern part of the state. Gary and Edith Tinsley operate the ranch, which sits in the Arkansas River Valley region of southeastern Oklahoma, roughly 15 miles west of Fort Smith, Arkansas.

The ranch is a proud member of the American Hereford Association and maintains a registered herd with a strong emphasis on genetic selection. Artificial insemination and careful sire evaluation are central to the breeding approach, with particular attention given to outcross genetics that are difficult to source elsewhere in the breed. The program places consistent priority on structural soundness, calving ease, and carcass merit, targeting cattle that perform across both commercial and seedstock operations.

Buyers looking for Hereford cattle for sale in Oklahoma will find that Shockley Ranch has built its reputation on producing animals suited to a broad range of production environments. The herd regularly supplies bulls and females to operations across multiple states, reflecting the reach the program has developed over more than two decades in the business.
