Brooks is a freshman from Claude, Texas, majoring in Animal Science. He grew up on his family’s yearling and cow-calf operation. While he has limited show experience, Brooks is excited to learn and compete as part of the team. His favorite thing about the team is the opportunity to surround himself with like-minded people who share the same passion for horses.

Brooks will be showing 𝐏𝐞𝐩𝐜𝐒𝐝𝐬 𝐁𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐇𝐨𝐠, aka β€œBoss Hog.” He is a three-year-old gelding and one of the first c**ts Brooks’ family has raised. Boss Hog is by the late Pepcid and proudly carries the Myers Cattle Company brand. He may be a little horse, but he has a big heart.
