What do you guys think of this MTB x PB shorthorn? She is a family friend's of mine and I've been working with her for the past 4 months or so. Plan to hit a few shows here in early spring and summer.
Love her look. Not sure if she's a little straight, too hairy and the picture isn't at a great angle for reading structure. She's definitely hairy too! One small note- I think you may have her tied a little high. A lot of people tie cattle too high and it shows in the ring. If they stand with their nose up all the time, guess how they want it to go in the show ring?
Yes she's hairy! She isn't very straight, it may just be the picture. She does tow out a tad in the front. Do you suggest tying her a little lower? She's really only tied for 2 hours a day.
I'd have her tied at the height she will be shown at. Up, but not with any strain, or much slack. I find if they can't move their head all about while you're working on them, they're much less likely to act up when they're shown.
