[QUOTE="VCC, post: 771159, member: 6399"] A good judge can tell if the animal has faults, hair or not, I think the real issue here is that years ago you could take a steer from your top 10 percent of your commercial herd and the could compete, now days if the show is competitive they wont win their class. We showed commercial calves for the first 2 years of showing, then we started buying calves with club calve genetics. Had to if we wanted to compete, and it wasn’t for the hair, most calves in our county do not have any hair, but they do not have any butt or natural width either. The way you some of guys talk I would suggest you just stay out off the Show Board and you would be happier. Until they pull them out of the feed lot and just slap a # on their butt and run them out in the ring for the judge to pick the best animal. Calves will be prettied up to look their best. [/QUOTE]
