Welcome to The Longhorn Round-Up News and Views
The Longhorn Round-Up News and Views is being launched as a way to continue to serve the Longhorn industry, the TLBAA and the ITLA. I have been in the Longhorn business for almost 30 years and through this blog I will be sharing my years of experience. I am not trying to become the official online publication of the Longhorn industry. I feel that the associations’ magazines, TLBAA’s Texas Longhorn Trails and the ITLA’s Drover are doing a fine job of representing their associations and membership. However, they are association owned and operated which means that they are not always in a position to report on all Longhorn happenings and the politics of the industry. I am here to give you some “straight talk about the Longhorn industry,” the ITLA, the TLBAA and all things Longhorn. If you don’t want an honest answer don’t ask my opinion. If you are looking for some straight talk about Texas Longhorn cattle and the Longhorn industry then you’ll want to bookmark www.longhornroundup.com Thank you for visiting my site.

I am so glad your back with the “news” of what is happening in the Longhorn industry. I feel like we can depend on you to give us the truth and not sugar coat everything.
I am not much interested in the politics but love the photos and sale news. Glad you did this. I will be checking for the latest photos and news.

Russell, it is good to see that you have the straight and forward approach (Without the SPIN), reporting on events in the Longhorn Industry. This is refreshing and what we have come to expect from you. Russell, I also must commend you on your nomination to recieve the Elmer Parker Lifetime Achievement Award. I consider placing second to Dr. Bob Kropp to be fine testament to all the hard work you have put in over the years and how fortunate that you have been to gain such knowledge and experience at still such a young age. Thank you for all the help you have been to me and I know you will continue to be a tremendous asset to this great breed. Glenn Phipps IPR
