Junior member won't let anything stop him from showing

[creativecattle]

This is a great story about Clinton Laflin. And although he uses a walker, during his last year as a NJAA member he was able to show.

Whats gets me is that it is what its all about. There are stories like this every year. Some just like to focus on the what they think is bad. Like complaining about the judges and the bad corrupt jocks(which most are not), and on and on. Look for the positve and let the bad be gone.

Clinton was featured in the "I am Angus" series a while back. I'm pretty good friends with his dad, it takes alot of patients for them to get to where they have gotten today. Good people with good cattle. RW

I know I have posted this before, but for those who missed it this is the original video that was done on Clinton in the Summer of 2008. Great to see this young man grow.
