[QUOTE="karlie45, post: 389998, member: 5751"] From the pictures, you dont. You hold it with your fist. Anyway, the steer looks pretty good, he would be a strong contender around here. I agree with the thumb/index finger closest to the head for showmanship. IF your animals is well enough trained. IMO, it looks better, but gives less controll. For me, it depends on the animal whether I hold the lead thumb closest or pinkie closest. ALSO, around here, the judges like your hand a couple inches, say 2 inches, away from the head. They say it gives less "bulk" to the head because they cant see your hand or lead strap. I like it because I feel it gives more control. OK, now while im on my showmanship rant...it looks like you need a smaller halter. Looks a little sloppy. Anyway. Congrats on a good show. Keep up the good work, and keep on that fiesty heifer, you'll get her with time. [/QUOTE]
