    FIRST WEBSITE I'VE EVER BUILT

    That's pretty nice. I took a web design class in high school and I can't say that I've used it a lot, but some.

    How much are monopoly calves worth?

    I was thinking about flushing to monopoly from a meyer-angus cow. Lots of cost their so I have to make sure everything pays off. I was actually thinking about keeping some of my best as bulls, but I don't have a clue what they would be worth. I would sell them somewhere between 12-18 months. I...

    Ford V10

    Never had a triton v10, but I have had a triton v8. We would of went with a diesel, but we needed something to feed the herd in the winter and diesels don't always start. It has held up good and has probably the toughest 125,000 miles I have ever put on a truck. I personally would urge you to...

    Jeep Liberty Limited VS. Honda CR-V SE-L (NC)

    I hate my sisters crv it has a dinky little engine that makes it impossible to pass and drive when its really windy. It possibly has the cheapest interior I have ever seen. Not to mention doing any mechanical work on them is hell. Do yourself a favor get a jeep.

    Show Steer Finish -- When is he at "12 O'clock?"

    You definitely need to get your hands on a calf to accurately evaluate them. On some calves the brisket can be deceiving just because some calves are cleaner and some are sloppy fronted from the get go. The cod and the tail head are the best places to look and see if that calf is finished.

    What are y'all paying for alfalfa right now

    Sold all my 1st for $135. Its dairy quality hay and even though they had to come pick it up they gave me a premium because I use a New Holland baler that grinds the hay and puts it into 3by 4by 8 bales. That way its easy to transport and they don't have to grind it.

    Show-man-ship Pointers

    I see a lot of first time showman that are overly eager and move to fast or in jerky motions. A lot of judges just like all your movements to be calm, controlled, and smooth.

    we can start eating humans. we have horns.

    They can make up data for anything. It happened for sure, they found more than one persons journal to have accounts of cannibalism.  For some reason my 5th grade teacher taught us about this endlessly. Not sure why I remember that, but at least I remembered something
