CREATING OPPORTUNITY.
With the best in cattle genetics.
Welcome to Graff Ranch.
We know that the great Angus breed we offer yields greater opportunities for you. That philosophy has never been compromised throughout our history.
A ranch for all reasons.
Graff Ranch is located in northeast Texas, just south of the Red River. Since 1983, in addition to ranching, our farming, timber and wildlife conservation efforts have
complemented and continue to complete the synergy of our Angus production program.
Graff Ranch focuses on delivering the best in cattle genetics, partnering with elite Angus seed-stock producers across Texas.
