My favorite in college was a  professor at Iowa State that would say " That thing is good enough - he can walk, talk and play the piano'"
another was a collage buddy that would look at a steer with a big butt and say " Look at poop chute on that one"

You gotta Shw to Know

and more horse related....said by a man that was an iron clad cowboy that made nails look weak. "Ride'em boy, don't sit there like a bump on a pickle"  I still say that to my hubby and son as they walk into the herd.  ;)

My favorite saying is not cattle related but I still like it  "even a broke clock is right twice a day"

My dad said this about 2 mins after my brother"s lamb died . " I'm gonna tell you kids right now  when you raise livestock sooner or later you're gonna have some dead stock.  "

I judge some sheep, but I am not at all a sheep person...lol...my favorite quote is by me when asked by people why I dont like sheep..."The little bastards are born looking for a place to die."

It didn't take us long after that to figure out we weren't sheep people either.  That's why I'm posting on steerplanet and not club lamb page.  (lol)

When we bought a Fuzzy Vision bull from Don Stout, he said "You can't eat hair, but you sure as hell can sell it."

A friend of mine that's a vet says "Livestock will hurt you really really bad, but horses will kill you."

Haha! These are so creative! You guys made my day!  ;D

My dad and I would always laugh at the people at our local fair who spent 10,000 on a steer for a county show and say, "That one may get the blue ribbon, but they all cut up red!"

I have too many to remember! (lol)

I think it was Baxter Black that said, "Everyone needs a hobby.  Just make sure yours doesn't eat."  Most of us on here obviously aren't very smart.

Another baxter black one i like "every good roper has to get withing throwin distance"

and awhile back i had an older gentelmen that has been in the cow business all his life tell me "the biggest difference in a 5000 dollar cow and a 50'000 dollar cow is 45,000 dollars" which makes alot of sense if you think about it

Not enough meat in his arse to make a sandwich.  When looking at a steer with a shallow lower 1/3. 
Play with all that clubby s#!t you want but don't keep any for cows. 
Most maine bulls will strip the milk from a holstein.

"Gotta expect losses"
Lookin at a pen of heifers "well she's the pornstar in this bunch"
And one of my favorites from livestock judging "what class is this?" "I'm not sure but I think these are breeding steers..."

At a livestock judging workout a coach from another school told his kids "Put the obvious ones in the obvious places and sort the rest."
"It wasn't the last $250 I spent that bothered me it was the first $19,750."
"I"m glad we can raise $15,000 steers because we sure couldn't afford to buy them."
