1. work at home 2. work more at home 3. work another time at home. 4. did I say "work at home"? Seriously; showmanship is won or lost by how much work you put into yourself and your animal at home. Try to mimic what you will experience at a show. Work with other animals if possible. Practice...

We bought one of those roasters with temp control. Started out with a one to one ratio corn to water. May need to fine tune it some as you go. Put in just enough to be absorbed by the corn but but make sure it is enough or the corn will burn. Steer loved it. DLZ
