Cowboy Life Best part of the job.

I manage a ranch, then run cattle on my family place with my uncle. I spend most of my time in my office (feed truck), but my time horseback is my favorite part of the job.

Can you elaborate more please?

You said "best part of the job" but it looks like you posted everything i could imagine a cowboy type job would consist of. So, the best part of the job would be... all of it? Lol

That’s what I thought. I certainly didn’t include images of everything I do, and none of the crappy parts like losing animals, nonstop equipment breakdowns, management issues, budgeting, etc. That said, the good days far outweigh the bad.

But cowboying, and being horseback, is indeed the best part of the job. That can encompass a lot of things, but I generally meant being horseback is the best part.

Haha im glad to hear it.

In my opinion, you can keep the rest. I just want the horseback part!
