Dudley Bros. is also known for producing top quality and practical registered Quarter horses. Several yearlings are sold in the Annual Sale, and typically, they go to ranches across Texas and the Southwest. Dudley Bros. was originally established in 1925 as a mercantile and ranching partnership by brothers, Gail, Tom and Eltos Dudley and is operated today by Gail’s sons, John, Jim and T.J. and by Eltos’s sons, Tom, Ray and Harry. The current partners’ great grandfather, James Hudson Dudley, Jr., originally purchased land in the area in 1885; and a portion of that original ranch is still part of the current Dudley Bros. operation. The Comanche ranch in North Central Texas and the Runnels county ranch in West Central Texas are both home to whitetail deer, quail and turkey and are leased annually for hunting.
