    Minnesota state fair ?

    That Midlewheight division of the steer show was awesome. Thought the class with Davis, May, and Neels was the toughest class throughout thte whole show. The angus heifer division was pretty tough also.

    American Royal Heifer Material?

    She looks to be real green. But looks like she should be pretty competitive when she fattens up a bit. i also think you should take her.

    SWEAT COLLARS

    It does work pretty well to use a leather sweat over the purple sweat. We had heifers ripping the purple ones to shreds also and since we started putting the leather one over it we have had no troubles.

    T-84

    The t-84 blades work awesome for the heads, they give a nice smooth finish without any lines left behind. I like to use them for cattle that are going to shows every other weekend and just have a little growth on the heads. I have never tried it with a really shaggy head though.

    Making Hair pop

    For popping hair for show dya we use a mixture of 1/3 kleen sheen, 1/3 lininiment, and 1/3 lectric shave (aftershave). Works real good to get the hair to pop, although you do have to blow it in for awhile but once you do you will be impressed. I have never used it for daily use though.

    Ruma-Fill

    We have never had problems bumping them up the morning of the show to 5#. We also will give them like 4# the night before so it is not quite such a jump.

    First time dealing with warts

    We have found that ripping the wart off (make sure to get all of it) and then freezing it with liquid nitrogen works very well.  We have found that the human wart remover does not freeze the cattle warts very good. With your bull being white you should not have any many marks as the nitrogen...
