Clipping Hereford Heifers

[rockcreekfarm]

I have shown dairy heifers all my life since I was about 4 and I am 22 now. I have recently sold all my jersey cows and heifers and bought 3 reg. hereford heifers a december calf, summer yearling and winter yearling. I know how to show a beef calf but I have never clipped one. On a dairy calf you clip the entire calf head to tail. What do you clip on a beef heifer?

Buy the Kirk Stierwalt clipping videos. They are a great way to learn how to clip.

Even though it says Angus the same clipping methods are typically used on all beef.

Did you join the association? If you did you should've gotten a packet with all kinds of information. There should have been one in there with info about how to care, fit and clip cattle for showing.
