Ryan Looper

Ryan Looper was born and raised in Holliday, Texas. He was brought up along with his younger brother Ramsey by his parents, Rusty and Julie Looper. After graduating high school, Ryan attended Vernon College for an Ag Business major. He resides in Holliday today with his wife Sylvia, daughter Railey and son Ryder. He has spent many years in the stocker/feeder cattle industry with outside grazing cattle and pre-conditioning/feed yard management. Ryan and Sylvia have a cow/calf operation along with operating the bit and spur shop full time. His upbringing and time in the saddle has given him a true appreciation for quality tools of the trade in the western lifestyle, along with an affection for the ways of the old makers as his work is done through fire and forge on the anvil. To him there are no short cuts in the creation of a family heirloom, as his work is viewed.
