The 6666 Ranch is located outside of Guthrie, TX, approximately 95 miles from Lubbock and 200 miles from Fort Worth. And as of 2022, the ranch is owned in part by Taylor Sheridan, making him the ninth largest landowner in Texas.

Sheridan is a co-creator and producer on the popular Paramount Network television series “Yellowstone” and a spin-off series, “1883”.  There is reportedly interest in another spinoff series based on the 6666 Ranch.

As far as Part 2 of Season 5 of the popular "Yellowstone" series goes, reports are it will premiere in November. But there are also reports that star Kevin Costner is holding out, waiting to approve how his character is killed off. Costner will be exiting the show after this season.
