    I da Man

    Very small sample size here, but I just clipped out a March steer calf that will be going to a local county Fair. He's really neat. Come a long ways in the last two weeks. Gunna be a really competitive fat I think. He's out of a red Angus x smooth sailing cow. The cow is a powerhouse,n always...

    Top Five Show Steer Bulls.

    Of all time? Or currently? Who made who, full flush need to be on there for the impact they made at the time, but currently, heat seaker n the above are just history compared to what the current generations are doing. Monopoly has to be on top still in my opinion, maybe not for long, but for now

    Harsh water on hair

    My water seems to dry out the calves really bad! I've dumped numerous conditioners, hair supplements, etc into the hair to try n make that hide n hair healthier, was curious on opinions about water softeners in barns. I will have 3-4 calves to work that we are showing for the most part. Does...

    Which is better? Fresh and Feminine or Shag?

    I've used shag before...done better with hard work and good genetics. Shag didn't do much in the situation I was using it for. Agreed with the fresh n fem. I don't think your in need of either

    MINDBENDER

    Just a bad experience that's all. Sounds like the bull has been doing very well for Josh n his customers. He has way more experience with him. Give him a call.

    MINDBENDER

    I've only seen 2. One heifer, a little bigger probably about 90 or so. Came easy, really neat heifer. Second was a beast, never made it.

    Boar goats?

    Don't know much about goats other than i like fitting them. Do they have to be slick sheared to show or can you grow hair n show em hairy like cattle?  Thinking about buying one to show...

    Show calf tendon surgery

    I think it's funny. Dehorning, trimming feet, clipping hair, fitting, all are done to change the looks, improve them for the show ring. Is it considered unethical because it's not COMMON practice for the person that thinks it's unethical? Are only the things that have been done for a long time...

    Not for everyone-probably the soundest-hiest performing Starburst EVER

    He's cool looking mark. I agree, Brad always has some of the coolest shorthorn-shorty influenced cattle around. I

    FSF Starburst 058

    Similar thoughts as many above, I would use him to win a few jackpots, just not to keep daughters for production.  Love his steers, have had great success with fsf bulls to make steers, just seen too many to the females gettin a little straighter on the back end. Would do on some really sound...

    K-Kim Bulls

    I saw cruiser out at Sullivan's one year, one of the more impressive Shorthorn bulls I've seen. Would still use him if I had a bunch of cows around to do so with

    Swing the gate sale

    Is the sale still going on? Havnt seen a catalog yet online and the sales not too far off I thought. Always one of my favorite catalogs to look through. Some of the best cattle at a decent price

    Advice on feeding a steer

    Good looking steer. From the looks he will most definitely be finished at more than 1200. I agree with all the above. Let em eat.

    Steer needs ride from Iowa to Michigan

    Anyone coming to the Michigan area from Iowa in the next couple weeks? Need a ride for one steer. Didn't know if there were any Shorthorn people coming to the Revival sale that may have room to haul one.
