#108. Scott and Andrea Van Leuven | C Punch Ranch

Scott and Andrea Van Leuven live in Lovelock, Nevada. Scott is the cow boss at the C Punch Ranch, a million acre ranch with one fence. They operate on a harvest model, meaning they never pull out their bulls and they calve year round. This model creates a unique job description for Scott and Andrea who consistently rope and work cattle in the open. The Van Leuven's join Ben and Joe to talk about their day to day on the C Punch and how they have seen ranching change over their careers. Topics discussed include how in the introduction of Angus cattle has influenced stockmanship, the type of horses required for long days in rural Nevada, and the practical use of traditional buckaroo roping.
