The Final Veridct

As you all know, I am now done with my stock show career :( My brother (Tyler), cousin (Travis), and myself took three steers to Houston and came home with none! We put all three steers in the sale! Placing 9th in the middle weight Limousin breed,  8th in the heavy weight Shorthorn breed, and 7th in the heavy weight Simmental breed. We branded all three steers, "Heater", "Turbo", and "Walker"! The good luck transferred over to the pig barn as well. My pig, "Phantom", got pulled but did not get placed, however that pig did have a fun time! While all the other pigs were driving around the ring perfectly mine decided to run around the ring as fast as he could, needless to say it was quite embarrassing, but I can't complain too much! The trip was fantastic! The family had a great time in Houston and I can definitely say I went out on a good note! My dad already has baby calves in the barn for next year, and I will be for sure out be out in the show barn helping every chance I get! I am very very excited to see what the future holds for my family in the show business and I will be there every step of the way helping! Showing cattle will always hold a special place in my heart and I can look back on my show career with nothing, but smiles and good memories! As one door closes, many more have opened. Judging season is kicking into high gear and all the spring contests are starting up! It's going to be a great judging season for the Hansford County Judging Team!
