And five years later, on the verge of wrapping up an incredible career on the mat, Bartel wouldn't change...

Out our way, many ranches have both a summer and a winter pasture. You graze the herd on the one for a season while allowing the other to replenish itself an be ready when the season changes. Twice a year, the owner of the brand, Big Mike, sent Charlie and me out to move his herd from one pasture to the other. The south pasture was the summer pasture, high on the Tiger Ridge.
