Jack is 16 years old and works on many local ranches in the Quemado area. 

He was named after his grandfather who was a horse trader. He was only 18 months old when he participated in his first rodeo.  Jack has been performing cowboy poetry for four years and was recently awarded the Buck Ramsey Award by the Lone Star Cowboy Poetry Gathering. Jack states, “I said my

first cowboy poem when I was in kindergarten for the school declamation and haven’t looked back since.” He recites classic poems with the best of them.
