Cowz, Wravenna judged at BHE for Dan Hoge and then at Oklahoma St. for Mark Johnson. She is a very talented individual who should do a nice job of sorting the livestock there. Jim

I am Jim Latoski. I am 24 and currently the livestock judging coach at Colby Community College in Colby,KS. I grew up on my families farm and ranch in eastern Colorado(Wray) where we run 150 commercial Red Angus cows and farm around 1500 acres of mostly dryland wheat. I attended Colby Community...

1. Livestock Judging - I don't know if this is actually a vice, since I look forward every day to getting up and doing it, but it occupies the majority of my life and time at the moment. 2. Copenhagen - a habit I've been trying to break for the last 7 years of my life, don't know if it's ever...

SRU, Connors is looking very good this spring. They were 4th in Denver and 2nd in San Antonio behind Coffeyville. I'm not sure how they did in Ft. Worth since we did not go. I don't know much about Cloud County since I don't think they are pulling a team right now. I know they weren't in Denver...

The reserve was a black maine.....The top two steers looked very good. I didn't really get a chance to see them until the Champions auction but the Grand brought 102,000 and the Reserve brought 52,000.

I just thought I would give everyone an update on how my first spring as a livestock judging coach continues to progress. Last weekend we atteneded the Iowa Beef Expo in Des Moines, IA where we finished 2nd as a team. We were the high team in placings there and tied for 6th in reasons. We also...

Hello everyone, It has been a while since I posted on here and decided I would give you guys a brief update. I took over the Colby Community College Livestock Judging team on the 29th of December and we have been running hard ever since. I have a great group of kids that I am extremely proud...

aj, I'll try to answer your question about Lancer the best I can. We had our first set of Lancer granddaughters calve this last spring. I really love them. They are moderate framed, easy keeping, and sound. The picture doesn't do him justice. I heard a story that he was in the feedlot for almost...

Thank you all for your kind words. It is because of you guys that I even joined this board. I stayed as an outsider for a while just reading and watching, but realized that it would be okay to join in. You all are a great group of individuals who I have enjoyed being able to read your opinions...

To everyone on the board, First off, I want to thank everyone who has been a part of this board for their efforts to improve our wonderful industry. Secondly, I would just like to let everyone know that I will not be much of a part of this message board in future. I have taken a job as the...

Show Heifer, Which Julian bull are you looking for? If you are looking for Beckton Juian B571, semen is getting expensive and very hard to find on him. I have no idea where you are from, but Dwight Elmore from Hutchison, KS might be able to point you in the right direction. He is building a herd...

i agree we can't put full faith yet in the markers as well.  Jimmyski, were all the progeny tenderness tested that were slaughtered and equal star individuals compared on any basis?  for instance, you could  have one bull by chance passing on more of the T2 marker (the rarest by the way), and...

Elbee, I will agree with you to a certain extent that DNA doesn't (or isn't supposed to) lie. However, after watching a presentation by Lorna Marshall (Bull Buyer for ABS) they did Marker tests on many of their Angus bulls and found that the bull that had the best tenderness score had a 2-1-2...

Garybob, I agree with you on the not using ramps. I can see that definitely causing some structure issues. However, I will respectfully disagree with you on the Implant. I would definitely implant him, it will aid in his overall muscle development and that steer could use that, especially behind...

I like him a lot from what I can see in the pictures. He's got plenty of muscle, is deep bodied and looks like he'll be an easy feeding type of calf. I also think that he is pretty correct in most of his angles although he might toe out a little bit off of his right front but not too bad. I...

As of right now, I would say that I like the White Socked calf just a little more. In the pictures, he looks a little more correct in his angles and looks like he should hold up better in the long run. Part of this could be do to how you have them standing in the picture, but the black one looks...

Jill, I believe it is the NW Missouri AGR Beef Show in Syracuse on March 3. Usually the University of Nebraska AGR show is right before Christmas Break as well. I don't know anybody that's left in AGR or I would try and find out for you. If I hear of anything I will let you all know. Jim
