Jarrett Worrell
J
arrett Worrell is the 9-yearold son of James and Shannon Worrell from Mason, Texas. Jarrett is the fifth generation to live and work on their family ranch, Worrell Enterprises. When Jarrett was asked about his first time showing, he answered, “Well, I’ve done it my whole life, but my first time in the ring I was 2 years old.” He says “his family just doesn’t know any different.” Jarrett loves to set goals and to work hard. He also loves his stock show family and the cows he shows. Although Jarrett’s main passions are in the cattle business, he is very involved in many other extracurricular activities. He participates in baseball, soccer, tennis and shooting sports. He also enjoys playing guitar and building robots. He is a member of the Texas Junior Hereford Association and 4-H, where he participates in foods and nutrition, Clover Kids and, of course, showing. Clearly, he is very well-rounded. Jarrett can even add being internet famous to his long list of achievements. Recently, Jarrett competed in the San Antonio Stock Show Video Challenge. The topic asked, “How does your 4-H project relate to production agriculture?” In the video, Jarrett incorporated his love for music and raising Hereford cattle. Ultimately, the video received more than 6,000 views and nearly 1,100 shares. It came down to three finalists, and Jarrett ended up winning the entire contest. What an accomplishment!
