Thanks for a better picture Mr. Chambero I have read some great things about you in the past couple weeks and seems you run a great program down there. Although other judges have apparently dealt with this situation much better than this judge did I can't help but wonder WHY the organizers use...
I am not saying SOME judges do not have their share of blame but it is the organizer who hire the judges is where I think the blame lies the most and is the best place to get any change.IMO. A few years ago a county fair hired a known breeder of clubby cattle to judge the fair 2 county's...
Why are the steers not put in order by Weight and then Alphabetical of show person before entering the ring like every other show I have ever seen to avoid this trampling being described in this post? I can just picture some dad telling their 16 year old son to run over them if they are in...
I will leave the feed and routines to the more experienced folks here on steer planet but will offer advise on buying your show equipment. If you do find some used on here or Craigslist or anywhere then BUY IT QUICK if you want it. Used show equipment is in huge demand and goes quick by my...
One example of this would be Pro athletes that I think is a great synonym with the show industry. So many of them use substances that are against the rules to enhance their ability and longevity in an event. The people running it did just enough to cover their behind but made no real steps to...
Prices go up that is a given. Is collecting cost more? Price of animals? Storage cost? Advertisement and promotion cost? This topic could be paralleled with the favorite spring topic how much to spend on a herd sire. If your paying the same for a bull or semen that you payed 10 or 15 years ago...
Yes I absolutely think this would happen at $15.Because of the supply-demand this country is based on gives this theory some merit on face value. I mean if a Bull is kicking out great calves and is in demand why would it be priced at 15$. That being said their are some good bulls out there at...
I say as black diamond he should be banned. If he wants to return he should do so as KFAcres thru an appeal to Jason.I don't have a dog in this fight but in general if your banned then in no way should you be allowed back under a different user name. Obviously you would have to make commitments...
My question is for all the money the ag community pays for joining association and groups with promote breed, agriculture, corn, beans, rural life, and on and on in their mission statements then why was it Chrysler the one who promoted the farmer! You don't have to promote agriculture and rural...

article seem to fit the topic brought up by cowman on geno and pheno.
I guess I missed the show steer part. I am not a big show steer guy and didn't realize some of the bulls mentioned was known for that but I must ask if you check the maternal sire for some of those show steers will you see Rodeo Drive?
Why in a maternal breed such as shorthorn is the topic of...
With any "rule" or "system" it is easy to see if someone is cheating or manipulating. Has anyone every been caught cheating or manipulating and been punished. If no one is enforcing what is written on some piece of paper somewhere then you can bet it is not being followed by everyone. Their are...
results are in and not having one is defiantly a disadvantage but not a deal breaker it seems at least with steer planet patrons. thanks to everyone who participated.
That is the truth. (clapping) It is like shopping for a new truck for a year and then you finally buy one. You see truck adds and you get kind of sad because the hunt is over for you for awhile..but the difference is when you start selling the calves you have bred it starts to get fun again. ...

I can't get you facts on businesses running in the red because they only fact out there is don't do it or you will fail. Borrowing money is not an unbalanced budget, borrowing more money than your revenue...
