[QUOTE="VCC, post: 543983, member: 6399"] The one problem I have seen with the smaller kids and long show stick is the damage they do with the excess stick when they are not setting up the back feet, once they have set up the back feet they have to grip the stick in the middle to loin, scratch, and set up the front feet. The other end is bumping the steer next to them. When they are walking the steer in the ring all you see is 3 foot of stick from the other side of the steer. I think that the stick should fit the showman first the animal second, especially with the beginners. Last show we were at, the ring steward was helping a young snowperson in the ring; I swear she got hit in the head 2 or 3 times by the butt end of the stick. [/QUOTE]
