His Bar None Ranch is about 15 miles from my Uncle Horace Morgan's ranch in Belgrade. If I remember correctly, their properties abutted each other. The Morgan Ranch is about 85,000 acres. I learned to rope and to shoot a .44 Magnum there. About took my arm off.

His Flying D Ranch is about 10 miles from my grandparents ranch in the Gallatin Gateway, where I spent a few summers of my youth. The local ranchers—my uncle owned a huge spread in nearby Belgrade—weren't so thrilled with Mr. Turner at the start, but they mostly came around with time.
