    gettin good at clipping and fitting

    Practice will help, observing and asking questions will also help but I'm a firm beliver that some people are born with the "touch" and that is what seperates the good fitters from the great fitters. RW

    Our favorites

    A bull I bought at 5 months of age (NBAR Neotiator), had a successful show career and ended up being National champion Intermediate bull for us in 2003. Has proven to be a calving ease bull that produces some of the best phenotypical females around. He is a maternal brother to NBAR Hamely. He is...

    Proffessional Fitter???

    In a round about way you are being paid to fit - included in the price of the calves when you sold them, that is the argument you will get at any rate. BCCC is correct - at least in our county only immediate family, another 4Her or 4H leaders can "help" fit at the county fair 4H show. RW

    What do you charge or pay for fitting?

    Maybe I should clarify myself a little. When I talk about working for someone else, I am primarily talking about seedstock breeders, not show steers. The seedstock business is where I started out and generally aim to stay. I really try to stay out of the junior barn if at all possible. If I fit...

    What do you charge or pay for fitting?

    I seldom work for people that I don't know pretty well. I guess I'm getting old and hard to get along with but after being out on the road for over 30 years I guess I'm entitled to that. Standard rate is $200.00 a day, plus expences - 2 meals, a place to sleep and travel expences. I will be...

    blue heeler matings

    Genetics are very omportant in stockdogs. My Kelpies have all been either out of imported dogs or one generation out from there. There are also geneitc lines that are sheep dogs and some that are more cattle dog bred. I've never had one quit me, one had a partially crushed wind pipe, two of his...

    Chris Cummings Steer brings 20K for the family!!!

    As a parent who has buried a child I can tell you that the efforts and thoughts behind this are worth many times over what the price of the steer was to Chris's parents. Job well done to all that were involved and I commend his parents for raising such an upstanding young man. RW

    New Clippers

    I had a set of premier 4000's - couldn't wait to get them traded off. Way over rated in my oppinion. I've only been at this for 30+ years so take the advice for what it has cost you $0.00. RW

I'm with lost - cats should live in the barn, catch mice and stay out from under my feet when I'm in the barn. I'm a pretty big fan of cats as...

    Best bull in Shorthorn Country

    Official Red Neck definition - (This applies to both words) - A somewhat straight line that kinda runs from here to there at an angle from what is considered normal to some folks. So yes it is kinda like kitty cornered. RW
