What bull won the open Simmental show?

AJSA is a great thing and the "Junior Nationals" are a wonderful experience for the juniors. But it really pisses me off that there are people that think it's okay to bring a professional fitter ...while their kids stand around watching him fit for them. Tacky and totally unprofessional.

Smokey Simmy Heifer I have a good smokey purebred Simmental heifer available.  Good bone, DOB 3-10-12.  Sire was a Drake bred bull, dam is a Fleck influenced cow.  Too nice for the auction barn!  $1200.00.  Please e-mail me if you'd like more pictures.  Located in Central Texas.   ...

Just looked at the Sullivan's sale catalog... they sure have some great females!  I'm curious... I'm not a Shorthorn breeder, so I don't keep up with the sales, but generally speaking, what are the prices like?  I'm sure the show heifers are sky high, but what about the bred heifers and cows? ...

I'm in desperate need of a breeding age bull.. either Simmental or Maine, and would consider a SimAngus as well.  PLEASE PM me if you have anything available!  I need something in the south.. Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas preferred.  If I don't find one by this weekend, husband is bringing home an...

...from the Simmental Jr. nationals.  There are more fitters here than at the Belt Buckle. Why do they swipe the rag to check for paint on the back?  Who the heck paints there? Every year the people get bitchy -ier. I understand it's a competition, but LIGHTEN UP. This is supposed to be fun...

I'm having trouble with my Sullivans blower (3 years old) running hot!  I've cleaned the pull out filter, but after about 15 minutes of use, the hose is so hot you can barely hold on to it.  The cover over the front is the same way.  I've got the heat turned off the unit. Any ideas?

I saw an ad for one of these units (used) on Craig's List, and wondered if they are worth the $$?  I hadn't seen one being used for cattle until last year at the Simmy Jr. Nationals, and thought it was a good idea.  Anyone have experience with them at  home?  Are they hard to keep up?  What...

I inquired about this a few months ago, but didn't know definate information! We're looking for a fitter for Ft. Worth, open Simmentals.  January 26th, through January 30.  We're taking 4 to 6 head.  Anyone available?  If so, please let me know what you expect, and how much you charge!  Thanks!

Has anyone had experience purchasing "full pasture rights" on a breeding bull?  What exactly does it entail?  I realize insurance will be involved, but what else would I need to consider?  Besided a padded stall?  <cowboy>

Not quite 5 months older.. weighs about 550 lbs. On feed, super quiet. Would make a great county fair steer and can be registered as a Purebred. He is sired by our Mo  Town x Perfection herdsire and out of a purebred Black Joker daughter. Priced at $650.

Does anyone know the results of the open Simmental show at NAILE?  Can't find any information posted on the website yet..  ::)

Did anyone make it to the Tusa's sale yesterday?  Do you know what the Simmy's brought?
