Kind of a sorry little shyt ain't he.

Missed the NWSS this year. My only regret is not getting to drink a beer with you Harley. Good luck :tiphat:

Watched most of the show on Monday.
Moto Moto really stood out in the bull show, as did a couple of the heifers.
All absolutely massive.

Good luck Mr. Blegen!

Ya I missed visiting with you as well. Enjoyed the 60 degree Denver weather. Got home this a.m. to -10 and blizzard conditions... :cry2:

Fine looking specimen!! Not being in the show cattle world myself, I have always been curious... how many hours of prep does it take to get your animals that "Purdy"!

Not as long as one thinks. Wash, blow dry in less than an hour.

He should get dead last since he's standing in straw!

:lol:


Very nice looking bull, and well fitted.

Ya the straw was deeper than we also. That is where they wanted to picture him.


Thanks

With a light application of "jerry curl". ;-) :lol:

That hair is great for winter, horrible for summer heat. Nice bull

They do shed out some, bloodlines very. Their "lack" of heat tolerance is a stereotype. There are Galloways in Oklahoma that "Do just fine". "When all the other cattle are hot so are the Galloways".

Yes, there are some herds (but not to many, unfortunately) that have used the ability to slick off as a selection trait.
