To obtain this Point: One must learn how to rope a dogey at the National Ranching Center in Lubbock.
Before there was oil and microchips propelling the Texas Economy, there was ranching and cowboys. To fully understand this part of Texas history, you need to go to the source and that is the South Plains near Lubbock, where the lifestyle continues. The National Ranching center on the campus of Texas Tech has replicas of authentic ranching buildings and railroad depots.
Other attractions in Lubbock include the Buddy Holly Center, the historic Depot district, Llano Estaniado Winery (Texas' oldest winery), Prairie Dog Town, and Wind Power Museum.
Enjoy Texas and did you know that the South Plains is the largest contiguous cotton producing area in the world. This region is primarily irrigated by the Ogallala Aquifer that (in addition to having a cool name from a Nebraska town...Ogallala) covers from Texas to Wyoming.
Enjoy Texas
