I have always thought Daniels was the best and he proved it again. We were very fortunatel yes, I won't go into that but he chose complete, sound cattle with muscle. I thought he did a particularly good job in the LW limmis so I'm not sure what your talking about there. Granted I didn't watch the Brahmans but you have to know enough by now to expect that. I told the contending bidder on that brahman last year he would never win breed because of the skin up front he had. Right or wrong if you pay attention to what these guys have done in the past you know what to expect.
Randy Daniels for President!
Well, u think he is the best, i was in agreeance before i saw him judge here. In the LW Limi's the best steer in there was 4th, the class winner should have been 2nd no doubt. Believe me ive been paying attention to what they do for a long time, i actually exhibited the grand overall at SA in 06 when Daniels judged, so i think i knw what he likes. The brahman i was talking about was great fronted for the breed, they all have a lil extra skin up there.
There was a small Wal Mart between 1st and the rest in the LW limmis. He said that was the easiest thing he had done that day. The problem most people will have with that calf is he was a 3/4 blood limi and looked like one. A good one. I'm sure the 4th was good and most of the time, anything in the top five could win on a given day with a different judge. Next time, I would suggest you go get one like you had in 06 at San Antonio and you won't have anything to worry about.
im experienced in reading structure, and he flat out made some bad calls on soundness. Still, my biggest problem with his reasons, were the steers he said only good things about and never explained why they were beat. If your gonna beat a steer at least explain why, then i would have no problem.
