[QUOTE="AAOK, post: 284622, member: 861"] Rob, I'll speak from personal experience at many, many shows, knowing very little as to how it will apply to your area. As a Braunvieh, I really like the red heifer. Judged against other Braunvieh heifers, I would think she could do very well. You say she would not have any other competition. Most shows do require a certain number to make a breed, usually 3 or 5 head. If you face that scenario, would she be thrown into the All Other Breeds? If so, and you have a Charolais, a Maine-Anjou, and a Saler of equal quality to your heifer, the braunvieh would be placed dead last by the vast majority of Judges. This is why I advise you shop around the Show Circuit you might travel, and see how many Branvieh shows you will have to enter. aplusmnt hit the nail right on the head. The judges would also see your two heifers as good future cows, but not clean, extended front, straight bellied, smooth shouldered, square butted, show ring heifers like they want to use. [/QUOTE]
