It was a great weekend, but I have to say Rayfield was my biggest dissappointment.  Like I said the little boy I was fitting for down there this weekend just turned 8 and it was his 2nd show ever. The two girls ring stewarding didnt go out in the ring, just kinda pointed and said go over there, so this little boy had no clue where he was supposed to go or which direction he was supposed to set up...and Rayfield litterally got snippy with him right off the bat about not being in the right spot, never mind that the older showman in the ring wasnt either.  I have never wanted to cuss a judge as much in my life as I did at that moment because of the way Rayfield was talking to and treating that little boy.  I dont care how talented he is or how good of a judge he is, he lost my respect forever on Sunday.
Rayfield has always been like that. You just have to take him for what he is and go one. Does it make it right, no, but its not going to change.

Oh I have had calves in the ring under Rayfield several times, the little boys mom looked at me and said "Wow he really dont like us does he?" and I told her no thats just how Rayfield is.  But for me he out did himself on the level of being a jerk in the ring this weekend, anybody with half a brain could realize that little boy had hardly ever been in the ring before, so to treat him like Rayfield did that day just ticked me off.  The thing that made it even worse is the little boy is actually pretty darn good for a kid that just  turned 8 and comes from a family thad never stuck a show calf until about a month ago.
And showstopper, ring A was just fine!
