Partnerships’ Variety Garners Success in the Bucking Stock Industry #3
Dennis Davis owns and operates Dennis Davis Bucking Bulls in Orchard, Texas. Davis specializes in training, caring for and hauling bucking bulls for competition. Partnership is a big part of his business. For Davis, it is important that these partnerships be individualized to best accommodate the level of commitment desired by his clients.
“Partnership allows people with no ranch, no truck, no trailer to be involved in the bucking bull industry,” said Davis of the opportunity he offers. “It’s about sharing the passion for bucking bulls with others who share that passion no matter where they live. If they are interested in the bucking bull business, I offer them an opportunity to go in together on the ownership of a bull.”
Davis provides clients with an agreement that will allow them to make the level of commitment with their bull that best suits their interests. Investments range from 50 percent interest to 100 percent interest and clients are presented with a variety of choices of bulls to choose from. The housing and training of the bulls is provided by Davis for which there is a monthly fee.
“I am involved with all ages and levels of competition bulls from yearling and futurity bulls to rider bulls in classic, derby and team event,” Davis told us. “I offer event-by-event agreements and I handle all stock contractor duties.”
Davis enters events all over the country including top tier ABBI competitions and the Million Dollar Bull Team Challenge. He is happy to have partners attend events, but it is not a necessary part of the agreement.
His experience as a bull rider, trainer for Billy Jayne’s Exclusive Genetics program and the President of Bucking Bull Games, and his sincere interest in the people he works with, has made Davis highly respected in the bucking bulls business.
Dennis Davis Bucking Bulls grew out of Davis’ association with Billy Jaynes and The Jaynes Gang/Exclusive Genetics. Davis trained and hauled competition bulls for The Jaynes Gang, eventually being named by Jaynes as President of the Bucking Bull Games. When Jaynes left the bucking bull business, Davis leased the Exclusive Genetics Ranch and has built a reputation as a premiere buck bull trainer.

Hello,
My name is Cezar Vinicius de Mattos and I am currently working on a cattle ranch in Montana. I have hands-on experience with livestock, ranch work and agricultural equipment, and I hold an active H-2A visa.
I am reaching out because I have a strong interest in working with bucking bulls and rodeo livestock. Working around bulls and the rodeo industry is a long-term dream of mine. My goal is to learn, grow and eventually become a bull rider while contributing as much as possible to the ranch and the team.
I am a highly motivated worker who is not afraid of long hours or hard physical work. I am physically strong, disciplined and used to demanding ranch environments. I take pride in responsibility, reliability and learning quickly from experienced professionals.
My ambition is not only to work hard but also to help the operation succeed. I want to contribute to the success of the ranch, support the team and help the business continue to grow and be profitable.
I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to speak with you and learn if there is any possibility to work with your operation.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Cezar Vinicius de Mattos
