    No Fit Shows

    No fit shows are nice right before a big show like Tulsa, Denver, and the Oklahoma Youth Expo, because you get to save your hair but other than that they arent really very logical. No fit shows put me (and cowboy) out of business. even if you dont fit, your hair should be trained to stand up on...

    Fitting Steers for show

    I will save you some time and trouble....Get a wash brush(plastic with the handle on the top your hand goes in)... rinse them and pull hair up with a comb. Blow it about half dry and start using that wash brush and brush the hair up until your arm is tired and then go through it with a scotch...

    Club calf. Added new one, Plus one more

    Alright here it goes, Some of you may get offended but oh well, Judges mention the sisters of poor structured steers for 2 reasons, 1. Your already showing a sorry steer that you didn't cull, so what makes you think you are smart enough to cull the female(sister,mother,grandmother)? 2. Its a...

    Clippers.

    When i clip calves i will sometimes use the same blade for 20 minutes straight sometimes. So you can imagine the heat. i bought a can of Andis Cool Care(i might be wrong on the name) and it is like a 4 in one, Cools, Lubricates, Sterilizes, and something else... It comes in a big blue aerasol...

    I too like the second one, I would like to clean his front end up just a tick and put a little more bone under him and drop him down in his flank, but thats being picky. he is alright.

    Thats the first thing the judge looks at!!!! i dont know about over there in roo-land but over here, he watches them walk in, if they dont fill there tracks or walk stiff they are thrown out of contention for class winner or Champion. If in fact this steer cant travel(not saying that he cant)...

    in the pictures he looks like he couldnt move off of his back wheels very well. Which means he is not structurally sound, which means he will NOT win around here. He looks too straight for my standards

    Angus Heifers

    picture 3 and 4 are the same heifer. Notice the mud/poop on this side of the rump. and notice the mud just below the hock on the back leg on this side. and the cow lick above the shoulder on this side... i cant believe someone would say 4-2-3-1 when 4 and 3 are the same animal

    Clubby Bulls

    i stand beside cowboy. from my experience, its always ths folks near the bottom of the class that are always pissy at fitters and jocks that know what it takes to get it done. You wont get anywhere by bitchin about it, so learn the tricks or be quiet.

    Getting Good Hair - HELP

    Angus have really goofy hair anyways so if its not one hair problem its 2 more. Also, Angus are not known to be the hairy ones in the ring. Most big Angus heifers here in oklahoma show slicked anyways.

    Hah this is entertaining. i dont have the time to sit online all day and argue about a bull being a black purebred. If you will excuse me i have to go check cows and figure which are in heat.
