What is the one thing you must have in your show box when you go to a slick show?? 

We're competing in our first major cattle show (Houston), in a little over a week and we're packing the showbox.  We got the basics down, but know there's gonna be a vital ingredient we forget!! ::)

600cc drench gun...good chance the steer might not like the water (San Antonio is really bad) and you cant win with a stale, empty steer.  Make sure he is slick all over, even under and around dew claws, Houston can get pretty serious about the 1/4 in or less rule.  We will be there, if you need anything send me a pm.  G-Luck

Ahh...Thanks!  The last steer project was a local show, so we didn't have to worry about drenching!  We've had pigs so we have the 150cc drencher!!  LOL...guess that means I get to shop!!  (clapping)

Remember that you are not allowed to put any shine or sheen products on the animal before entering the ring. They will swipe and smell check everyone.

Unless your are brave like some people. :-\

The nice thing about the mini fridge is that it also fits on a two wheel dolly and can be wheeled INTO the barn as ell as fitting in the trailer

A small tool box complete with zip ties, wire, hammer, pliers, screw gun, screws, duct tape.  That way you are prepared for any little thing.
