Anyone know what type of heifers this man goes for? He is judging some of the jr heifers at the 2013 Ft Worth Stock Show. Thanks ahead of time.

That my friend is the million dollar question! I asked around the people I know from Florida and they havent shown under him.

While we're on the fort worth judges topic I was also wondering about him as well as Chris Sankey

Chris judged limousin last year, he likes them moderate, super muscular, and powerful. Soundness isn't a trait high up there based off what he picked last year.

Sankey likes sound cattle that will become brood cows. He has shown small to moderate to bigger framed cattle but all are sound and brood cow appearing. That is just what I have seen him show and pick in my dealings with him.

an Angus sale management firm, Cotton &
Associates, managing sales across the country.
He graduated from Oklahoma State University
and after college worked as the purebred
manager at Ankony Angus. He has judged Angus,
Simmental and Hereford cattle at state and national shows, most
notably at the North American International Livestock Exposition,
Georgia National Fair, National Western Stock Show and the
Illinois and Oregon State Fairs.

Are you going to change which cattle you bring to the show depending on how he likes them?

I would think he would favor the maternal/Angus type heifers
