Thank you Kansas State Livestock Judging Team for providing placings and officials for this class. Placing: 1-2-3-4 Cuts: 4-3-2 1-2-3-4 is my ranking of the Angus Heifer Calves. 1’s blend of brood cow function, quality and performance establishes her as my winner.

Mark that Card: Breeding Does
3-2-4-1 6-3-3 My placing of the Breeding Does is 3-2-4-1 To be frank, that 3 doe’s kind is hard to make. It’s impressive that she’s able to provide that kind of rib cage, hip shape, and power, yet still couple it with such a unique look up front. That’s a shallow chested, tall shouldered doe […]

Thank you Jensen Bros. Herefords of Courtland, KS for providing the class and Huncovsky Marketing for the photos. Placing 2-4-1-3 Cuts 4-2-2 2413 is my ranking of the Hereford heifer calves.

If 1’s flawless skeleton and build doesn’t get you fired up, then I’m sure her extra power and dimension most certainly will. You study that one coming […]

Although I could make a case for any of these in my top trio, 2 ultimately strikes me as an elite brood cow with a distinct look of quality. It’s […]
Mark That Card: Market Wethers
Thank you Cooper Bounds, Show and Sales Rep at Miller Boer Goats, for providing the officials. <br /> Placing: 1-3-4-2 Cuts: 2-5-4 I like the Market Goats 1-3-4-2. Among the pair of truly elite parrot-mouthed wethers, the more exotic, black-headed wether is simply the hardest to make. Not only is he the roundest bodied option that feeds the most radical and expressive shape […]
