Briggs Ranches, established by R.W. Briggs Sr., is one of the oldest Santa Gertrudis operations in the country, dating back to 1942. With a focus on purebred Santa Gertrudis and Angus cows, as well as a herd of commercial cattle and Quarter Horse broodmares, the ranch also prioritizes wildlife conservation, boasting an abundance of deer, quail, dove, javelina, and feral hogs.
Through a strategic upgrading program that began in 1946, Briggs Ranches achieved purebred status by 1955. Today, the ranch maintains between 600 and 800 head of Santa Gertrudis cows, along with a varying number of commercial cattle, and hosts annual sales events offering high-quality bulls and commercial females in Victoria, Texas.
