“It’s an honor just to be mentioned in the same sentence with Foy Proctor. He was my hero. I credit him with teaching me more in a short time and setting an example and instilling a lot of confidence that I’ve carried with me all my life.”
Buster Welch of Rotan, successful cutting horse trainer and rancher, also worked for Foy Proctor, starting at age 14. Now, the Welch ranches cover 50,000 acres (deeded and leased) between Snyder and Rotan, Texas. In addition to ranching for himself, he has also worked for the 6666’s, Pitchfork and King ranches.
