Placing: 2-4-1-3Cuts: 3-2-4 I like the Angus Bulls 2-4-1-3. That short tail 2 bull’s undeniable power and body shape paired with a functional skeleton positions him as my herd sire of choice.

Mark That Card – LimFlex Heifer Calves
Thank you, Connors State College Livestock Judging Team, the recent Champions at Cattlemen’s Congress and The Patriot, for the officials and reasons.
