We took a new steer to our first show this weekend and the judges comments were to “soften the front third”. We are still pretty new at showing steers so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Can any tell me what I need to do to fix this issue or is this genetics?

might mean they want a steer with a little more angle to the shoulder. the judge might have been commenting your steer was a little stiff, which they all get when they get done. but if all else is equal, the softer made one will win.
