Insofar as showing is concerned, Denver is a prime example of where it all began. A marketing tool! The ring and the yards are perfect places to display your best genetics and showcase your abilities. A good definition I like to use is showcasing superior genetics performing in an ideal...

I totally agree. I have a blog on my website I am trying to use a bit more, but I have yet to figure out what to do with Facebook. I may try making a page and see how that goes.

Hi All! I am indeed amongst the living. To cut to the chase, I am trying to get a little email newsletter out that is mainly geared towards young folks. People in their later high school and early college years would be the main target, er, focus. :D But, I certainly think having some more...

DOC, I'm gonna try to get by and see you early June again this year. I'll be up your way for judging camp again,=. Cade

I never knew of Tom Hook until a last summer when he purchased three Angus pairs from me. He came clear down to Peyton to look them over and see the calves. That day we spent a a few precious hours visiting over cold sweet tea with my family, Tom, Mrs. Connie Hook, and her mother. That day he...

Thanks. I suppose then they all showed up in good condition? How did that little BANGS vaccinated heifer turn out?

Haha, I don't think I'll be getting rid of all my blacks for a good, long while. They're still paying the bills and building the college fund, so I may as well stay on board as long as things are red hot and rollin'. Although, it seems shorty cattle are once more gaining a little bit of...

A.I. deal is still pretty solid. Got a bunch run through here this year, and lots of folks have gotten my name out there. Pretty lucky I guess.

I've been away for quite a little while. I'm really missing the fall photos, and pictures of good cattle, and all the friends and contacts I made on here. Not to mention some good learning experiences and a couple heated arguments. A little bit of an update is that I recently bought two...

Idaman, that's something you have to take up with Kit. You never know, if you've got some good old genetics that are really a good fit to the program, I wouldn't doubt that you might have a shot at getting into the deal. As for me and my breeding, the heifer I bred last night received 5cc of Lut...

Bred a cow and a heifer for my customer today. Both in good heat this morning, both to target tonight. Took me 30 minutes to find the heifer's cervix, and about 5 minutes to actually breed her. :lol2: The cow I could have stuck the gun in and she would have bred herself. Both had nice tone, and...

There he is. You can also copy and paste him to your desktop and set him as your avatar. I also have PCC logo if you're interested.

Haha! Pledge has made me more money than all the hours I've spent working on tractors, so I reckon I can oblige you. You simply have to go into your "User Control Panel", right next your messages link at the top of the page. Click on the Profile page and when you're on that page, click on "Edit...

Only been a member on here once, been under the same name as long as I've been here. :D I appreciate the plug there Idaman. Sure helps that I have a good reputation already. Have to say, if your cows get any fatter, I may have to put them on a diet. Just looking great and that cow that calved...

Well, first I'd get a reality check from a trusted advisor who knows what a good animal looks like. Then, I'd count to about 30 days before you decide to break the bank and jump into the world of show cattle. It ain't cheap, is not easy, and takes know-how and dedication. Heck, I ain't anywhere...

Just and FYI for the board members here, my mom and dad both have given me my fair share of good beatings. Let me try to show you where you taking shots gets a little annoying, Frankie. I discounted grain fed bulls in general. You happen to fall in that category and that's not my fault. You...

Well now, they've both got red and white cattle, and that's all that matters to me. Both cattle work in grass environments, but I realize they're probably worlds apart in breeding programs. Both have been good gentlemen to talk to, and I wouldn't mind using either one's bulls to produce black...

Certainly sounds like you have it figured out K! By the way, that was a very nice bull you posted whom I think will do well for your program. I was not by any measure discounting Frankie's cattle. I stated that they work well for what she is doing. She did not slam my cattle either. We were only...

Yipes, you are little touchy. You just made a case for forage development. If 50% of the bulls were culled, you're gonna tell me that's bad? Not every animal with a pair of testicles should go out and produce calves. If 50% got culled, buying a forage tested bull is all the better because you...

For all I know, you're just blowing hot air yourself. I've grain fed cattle for seven years now, and I have a pretty good idea of what some time and fat can do for an animal. It sounds shocking that I know something, but even in my short life, I've learned a little. To reach their potential...
