    one thing you could change

    Probably the worst fake reason I've ever heard a judge spout off, was this: "If you like one big boned, heavy muscled, structurally correct, and still free moving then this is the steer for you..... But I'm going to start the class with the young man's steer, who is just more athletic." As you...

    How is sale order determined at your county fair?

    At our county show, immediately following each breed we show for sale order within that breed.  Then after grand and reserve grand are chosen, they immediately bring in the backup steers to those calves in their breed sale orders, and begin showing for final sale order.  It's exactly the way it...

    Google and guns

    I've got a brand new Kahr cw40 I'd part with.  I've never even fired it.  Interested?

    Show Calf Prices

    This is why the internet is valuable.  Sure, there are plenty of other things you could add to this advice to be successful, but this is GOOD STUFF right here!!!!  You can't always outspend people, but you CAN ALWAYS OUTWORK THEM.

    glover sale

    He was a good one.  He had an excellent disposition as well, & was a very easy-going animal.  I may be a little biased, but disposition is ranking WAY at the top of my list right now.

    27th Annual OK Junior Cattlemen’s Association Summer Preview Show

    Quality will be pretty awesome, the numbers will be pretty good, and the showmanship competition will be intense.  Showmanship will generally be broken up into several heats for each agegroup, and the winner gets a showbox.  It's my kids' favorite show of the year.  There's a lot for the kiddos...

    eye candy steer sold awhile back on here

    Thanks again.  Yes, our county show is really tough.  If our steer had shown up in late February weighing 1300 or so, he might've won the county show, but not at 1220 like he was.  There were 10 steers in our little county in SW Oklahoma that would've qualified for the Sale of Champions at OYE...

    eye candy steer sold awhile back on here

    My son had him.  I added that picture to my facebook profile, and tagged Trausch Farms in the picture recently.  I felt like it was the best picture of the steer that we had.  I only uploaded the picture to help give credit where it was due, to the folks who helped us get the steer.... Trausch...

    Is this what an "Honorable" breeder does?

    Pay attention, because Chambero is doling out some great words of wisdom here... Let's make this short & sweet.  A reputable breeder will make this right in any way possible, but they won't give away the farm to make sure your feelings aren't hurt.  Cattle are worth more this year than last...

    wanting whiter hair

    Shimmering Lights works 10X's better than the sullivan's whitening shampoo.  We showed an all white shorthorn 2 years ago, and a white/painted charolais last year.  Beauty supply stores usually have the Shimmering lights shampoo cheaper than other places.  Another thing, we used Weaver's Pro...

    Gotta brag on my son a little....

    My son is 10 years old, and if you look beneath the brim of all his caps you'll find his motto: HARD WORK PAYS OFF.  This last Saturday his hard work indeed paid off, as he drug his eye candy steer into the ring at OYE and walked out with the banner for champion charolais market steer.  This...

    Oklahoma Youth Expo - Steer video is now up

    The little boy who gets out of the limo & flexes his muscles...... well that was my kiddo.  He had the champion charolais steer, with the Eye Candy steer we bought from Kirk Baker.  If you look back through the steerplanet cattle classifieds, you'll find the steer for sale there.  Dustin Glover...

    Brig Stewart or Yochum Jr?

    This is just one person's opinion, so take it for what it's worth.... Yocham Jr. judged our county show a few years ago.  The good: He found the best one in the barn.  He chose a really thick, soft, hairy, well moving steer for grand.  The best calf definitely won that day.  The bad: he...

    You know you are from a small town when .......

    I graduated 13th out of my class in high school, and didn't make the top 50%.  The school counselor called my folks once & reported me being at a big "party" and I was still at home (okay, I just wasn't at the party YET.) My kids' bus driver was my bus driver during school as well.  Last but not...

    Outragous hair

    1. Genetics.  If the calf isn't bred to have any hair, then guess what..... he ain't gonna grow it magically. 2. Hard work.  Rinse, blow, sheen.  Rinse, blow, sheen.  Rinse, blow, sheen.  Comb, brush, rinse, blow, sheen, comb, brush...... get the idea?  Having great hair on a calf is hard. ...

    My favorite song today

    I dig Shooter Jennings.  I hadn't heard that song before, but I have his first cd.  The guy's good.

    My favorite song today

    My favorite song of the day is "Like Jesus Does" by Eric Church.  Great tune, check it out. All-time favorites though include: Max Stalling "Scars & Souveniers", pretty much anything by the Great Divide, Ragweed's "17", Jason Boland's "Somewhere Down in Texas", Jerry Jeff's "Keep Texas...
