In this issue, we highlight people from various facets of the industry. Our two new Hall of Fame Inductees are an example of this. Both focused on using their talents to help others while progressing the livestock world. Don't miss their features on pages 36, 38 & 40. Another part of The Showtimes that is rarely highlighted, but always there are the Show Results. Starting on page101, this issue features more show coverage than can be found anywhere else! Not only is this a spot to feature the highest quality livestock in the country, it is a way to highlight the quality of exhibitors and breeders as well - as it boast multiple spotlights intertwined throughout the results! This past March, we were very humbled by the distance people traveled and the states represented at The Blackout Jackpot 6. Look to page 102 for extensive coverage from the show! One neat fact

was that the Top 5 Steers and Heifers were from 7 different states! It was also a privilege for us to be able to award 8 Blackout Jackpot Scholarships to exhibitors from this year's show - from 8 different states! A big shout out to the Stafford Brothers [purchased the Blackout Jackpot/Sullivan Supply Stall Bid-Off] and to Mark and Deb Core [donated back their judges checks] for their support of the scholarships! We already have our gears turning to make the Blackout Jackpot 7 even better! Moving forward into Summer, we are beyond excited about being the Official Media Partners of the Maine/Chi National Junior Heifer Shows and the Junior National Hereford Expo. We have been working hard alongside all of the breed organizations to bring you the best coverage of the Summer Shows! If you have not done so already, download The Showtimes App to see a list of this Summer's Upcoming Shows as well as many other features! â&#x20AC;˘ It's A Pleasure Representing You!

THE MAN BEHIND SHOW COAT SOLUTIONS. MAY/JUNE 2018 / THE SHOWTIMES

BY CHADWICK FOLGER, AL

f someone would have asked me 40 years ago what I would be doing today, I am sure the answer would not have been what it turned out to be. I am one of four kids that were blessed with parents who instilled strong Christian values. My dad farmed and had a small angus cow herd. Mom made her career in the field of cosmetology. We lived in a small rural town in S. E. Alabama with a population of 3,000.

amazing. The one thing that fascinated me more than any other was the amount of hair many of the cattle had. I left there determined to make the hair on my steers like that. Dad explained to me some of the things that might make it difficult for me to achieve this. First and foremost was the heat and humidity that was part of living in the deep south.

Outside of the farm and cattle, dad’s other love was baseball. From the time my brother and I could stand up, we had a bat and a ball in our hands. This is how we passed the time of day. We didn’t play with toys or watch T.V. We played pitch outside until it was dark. When mom called us in to eat supper, we took the game inside. When I turned 8 years of age, dad introduced me to showing cattle. From the beginning I enjoyed spending time at the barn. I wanted to learn all I could about my steers, and most of all I loved to brush. I’m certain dad knew I would like it. Unlike my brother’s personality, I was detail oriented, a perfectionist, and had all the energy in the world.

Dad added fans and misters to make the barn better equipped to grow hair. These things certainly helped, but it still couldn’t achieve what I was looking for. This is when we decided to call in reinforcements. Mom was the one person I knew that had extensive knowledge of hair. She went to work on it and a short time later I was given a quart spray bottle filled with a hair conditioning mixture. I had no idea what it was, but I was willing and able to try it. For the first time I began seeing noticeable improvement. This was the very first formula of what has evolved into ShowCoat. Over the past 30 years, the formula has been altered many times. As research led to new advancements in human hair loss prevention and treatment to cure Alopecia, mom made sure the formula was updated. For several years we used the products ourselves and would give some to friends and families that purchased a steer or heifer from dad.

A couple of years later, dad took me to Louisville for the North American. The experience was absolutely

Once I started college, I didn’t have time to stay involved with the livestock. As an athlete, all of my time was spent

playing, practicing, and with studies. I enjoyed every minute of it but I missed being involved with the cattle. Dad continued to produce a few good steers each year, and I tried to find time to attend a show on occasion. After graduation, I began working with Owens Corning, a leading building materials manufacturing company. I used this as a stepping stone to start my own custom home building company. This also allowed me to move back home where the farm was. On May 31, 1997, I married my amazing wife Kellie. She and I have three kids; Conner, Mary Grace, and Banks. Kellie is an incredible mother that has dedicated her life to our family and loves our kids to no ends.

This year will be the 10th anniversary of my incident. I am reminded often of the many blessings I have been given. I have been able to watch my kids grow into young adults, attend high school graduations, and our youngest Banks was able to get to know his dad. Yes, I still have disabilities that will remain with me as a result of the oxygen deprivation. I am unable to work as I did before, but Kellie refused to allow me to accept I could no longer do anything. She encouraged me to find something to do each day that had a purpose. With her help I dedicated my time to researching ways to improve mom’s formula. With mom’s help, I had access to information. With the assistance of my personal Neurologist more contacts were made. Over the past seven years, the research has brought about the process required to procure our PCT Compound. This became the key ingredient needed to enhance cell regeneration on a molecular level. Our continued research has brought about additional uses for the compound. We have proven its effectiveness for treating alopecia and for minimizing hair loss on individuals who must undergo chemo treatments. This was God’s plan for me all along. My passion for showing cattle wasn’t about increasing hair growth on my steer. It was the vehicle God used to enable me to reach out to others in need. •

THE SHOWTIMES / MAY/JUNE 2018

As a Christian, I believe God has a plan for each of us. God placed Kellie in my life because he knew the time would come when our family would need a strong person to take control and to have the ability to multi-task on a whole different level. For our family this time was July 18, 2008. On this day not only was my future changed, but our family was changed. God had another plan for us. The day began just as all others, but the ending was drastically different. At the time I was building a home for a family on their farm. The farm was located in a rural area and approximately an hour from the closest town. Because of its location, I would take my lunch with me and would not leave until dark every day to get the most work done possible. After eating lunch that day, for some reason I felt the urge to leave early and go home. When I walked in the house, Kellie was shocked I was already home. We stood in our kitchen discussing supper plans when suddenly I collapsed. I had suffered sudden cardiac arrest. Kellie sent Conner into the neighborhood looking for help. As he passed through the neighbor’s yard he came across a group of cars parked in the street. A couple had just arrived and as they exited their car Conner asked if they could help. The gentlemen just happened to be a doctor. He followed Conner back to our house and immediately started CPR. Several minutes had passed and I had been deprived of oxygen for an extended time. When the ambulance

arrived, they began working to restart my heart. They were successful and were able to begin transporting me to the hospital. I coded two more times while in route to the hospital. Upon arriving I was placed in a coma and the diagnosis was not good. Kellie was informed of my brain activity and the problems that were associated with my oxygen deprivation. She was told that if I woke up the chances of me being the same as before was highly unlikely. Kellie told me of the overwhelming support she received from our family and friends. Our church asked its members to pray for me and every individual left their seat and approached the pulpit hand in hand and began to pray. We later found out other area churches prayed in a similar manner. God had a plan and, in His time, I woke up.

fill in the blanks I am a 19-year-old fourth generation Shorthorn breeder who is currently attending South Dakota State University. I grew up going to shows every weekend across the country with my family and there’s no other way I’d have it. I have numerous showmanship titles and was recently elected to the American Junior Shorthorn Board of Directors.

MAY/JUNE 2018 / THE SHOWTIMES

ONE I could not live without... music in the barn.

TWO You will not find me at a show without... my brother “fitter” at the chutes while I’m in the ring. THREE My biggest pet peeve is... listening to people crack their knuckles. FOUR If I could relive one moment it would be... when one of my all-time favorite show heifers that my family raised, SS Dream Lady 161, was Reserve Shorthorn Heifer in Denver. FIVE One type of food I could eat every single day is... Casey’s donuts. SIX My biggest goal is... to attend New York Fashion Week. SEVEN A secret talent I have is to... I can quote the movies Spy and Fault in Our Stars from beginning to end. EIGHT If I could have a show anywhere in the world it would be in... Hawaii. NINE If I could have dinner with one person I’ve never met it would be... Sadie Robertson. TEN My favorite part of being on the American Junior Shorthorn Association’s Board of Directors is... being to give back to the breed that has given me so many opportunities and friendships all while being a positive role model to the youth.

You will not see more bone and mass on a bull, it is impressive just how powerful Garth is. Josh and I stopped and saw him at the bull stud on the way home from Denver and that is the closest mature bull to Whiskey I have ever seen. When we saw the Maine show in Denver this wasn’t the bull that won, but this was the bull that we wanted to be a part of. It took a little while to get it done but we couldn’t be more excited to own in on this great sire. In his first calf crop he sired the $27,000 Denver Grand Champion bull Epic, and some very high dollar heifers on a very limited usage.

CIMARRON TRAILERS / FOOD EXPERT

ock and load, throw the bags in the truck and hit the road - time for the summer fun run to begin! For the next couple of months, you can find a major livestock event for nearly all species! I am a creature of habit (so my wife says) and am pretty set in my ways about where I stay and eat on the road. You can probably tell that by the food I write about. I’m going to revisit a couple of places in Grand Island that I think are just pretty dad blame good. With both the Hereford and the Chi/Maine Jr. Nationals there this Summer, I don’t mind sharing them. Especially since I’m not going to be able to make it to Nebraska this Summer with the hope that there are new people to this lifestyle that haven’t made the trek there before and would enjoy some good grazing; and maybe jog the memory of some of the old faithful’s. I’m going to start off with my favorite place to dine in Grand Isle and that would be PAM’S PUB & GRUB. This place is a little deceiving from the outside, but once you get inside you’ll see why I recommend it. The food here is great all day long from breakfast and the daily specials to the burgers and the fries. But in my opinion, the best deal is the fried chicken. It is on a buffet line where you choose your own sides on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. Along with a salad bar this deal is hard to beat in my books! The best thing about this place may be the affordability. The prices are very reasonable especially if you’re taking a large crew in to eat after a long day. The next place in Grand island would be WAVE PIZZA. Now I’m not much on pizza but I’ll go out of my way to eat at this place! This has got to be some of the best pizza I have ever feasted on. The toppings, crust, and size put this place at the top of my pizza places to eat at on the road! The atmosphere here is great, easy going and laid back. Just the kind of place to take the family and make a great memory!

I’m going to throw you a curve now! I recently had the opportunity to spend a couple of days in Tomball, Texas. For years I had heard about MEL’S COUNTRY CAFE. Needless to say, this place lived up to the legend! I had been told about the chicken fried steak and burgers here for years. But that was just a couple of things Mel’s is known for. I was a dare devil the night I took my wife there to sample the choices here. She had the meatloaf and I had the sampler platter (ribs, shrimp, chicken strips and catfish). That thing alone was enough for two people to share and have leftovers. The down home, laid back atmosphere was nothing short of awesome. The prices here were amazing for the quantity, quality and service. No wonder this place has stood the test of time and made it a landmark in South Texas. By the way, you may need the phone number on the wall to call the railroad people about the train blocking the road, so you can get them to move the train, so you can get back to town! I guess I can’t overlook the pork boys. The World Pork Expo is in Des Moines in June. I look forward to making the yearly trek there to spend some quality time in Iowa. Hoping to help sell some trailers, see some old friends, see some great swine and of course eat! I have written about this little place before but once again I’m hoping to reach some new followers or maybe just jog the memory of some old timers. One of my favorite places to eat while in Des Moines would be NOW OR LATER. Just down the road East of the fairgrounds this little place is easily overlooked. I must say I did for years. This place has something for everybody from the burgers and fries, the livers and gizzards to a great steak this place has it all. Along with great food, service and affordability, this is great place to take the crew to relax and enjoy some great food! Once again let’s not lose focus on what we are trying to accomplish with our youth and families. Let’s go make some happy memories - safe travels! •

A PORTION OF DEB’S CHAMPION DRIVE SPEECH FROM THE BLACKOUT 6 HEIFER SHOW.

104

ertainly it’s been a long day, but one that Mark and I have looked forward to since they approached us last Summer to come do this. Certainly we weren’t disappointed when we got here. For us, those of you that know us, know what our profile is. This business has been the essence of who we are. It really is the essence of Mark’s and my relationship. It’s how we got together. We appreciate you taking the time to come and listen to our opinion. That’s all it is. We certainly have a tremendous amount of respect for the man from the other ring today. It will be fun to sit and visit with him tonight at dinner. You know, when it’s all said and done, whoever gets the banner on that side or this side, it all comes down to really not who gets the banner for us. It comes down to a lot of other things. There’s three things I think you need to keep in mind.

First, to enjoy this life that we have. You need to have somebody to look up to. You need to figure out who it is you look up to. For our family, we all look up to the good Lord and we thank Him every day He put us in this business. I am a firm believer that He gives parents tools to

JUDGES THOUGHTS MIC

raise their children and he gave Mark and I the tool of the cattle business, and particularly the show cattle business to raise or two daughters, and we thank Him for that. But there’s certainly a lot of people in this industry that we look up to. You as young families need to find out who you look up to and why. The second thing. You always need something to look forward to that keeps you going. When you can’t put one foot in front of the other. Something to look forward to that keeps you going. Whether it’s the next show. Whatever it is, something to look forward to. The last thing, have something or somebody to chase. I hope it’s not just chasing banners. There’s a whole lot more to this than chasing banners. I hope you’re chasing time with your family, time with your friends, to become a better person then you were yesterday. I think that if you can chase those things, that’s really what this business needs to be about. Thank you for this opportunity. We respect this opportunity to come and do this today. It’s a privilege. We gave it our whole heart today. Thank you for that opportunity. •

A PORTION OF MARK’S CHAMPION DRIVE SPEECH FROM THE BLACKOUT 6 HEIFER SHOW. hank you for the opportunity to be here. When social media first started to become something, I thought it maybe was the death of this industry. You get home from a show, and somebody would tell you what people were saying about you. I am a big believer that you can embrace technology, or you can fight it. I think there’s three or four things that have exploded this business with excitement the last three or four or five years. There’s times you say it costs too much. Is this business that we love going to continue to grow and become something? I think about some things that I believe has connected these young people all across the country. It’s created an excitement for them. Things that they enjoy to watch. I think Facebook is one of these. I think Sullivan’s Pulse is one of these. I think what the Reid family has done, both with their magazine and what they do from a social media perspective to create excitement and things that are so positive within

industry. I remember reading their magazine a few years ago and saying to Deb; “Read their personal stories. We don’t know this family very well, but they get it. They get the personal touch of this business. It is interesting as a parent, now that our daughters are done showing, there’s like twice as much good about this business. I think every judge is awesome now. When my daughters are not showing, we have cows showing all the time. There’s so much powerfully good about what we’re doing to develop the young people that are going to feed nine or 10 million people by 2050. I can’t think of a better way than this industry to be able to do it. Thanks again for the opportunity. We’ll find you the top five heifers. Let’s thank the Reid family and Showtimes for what they do. •

MARK’S CHAMPION DRIVE SPEECH FROM THE BLACKOUT 6 STEER SHOW.

hen you stand in a ring as a show judge, to be honest with you, it’s a thankless job. You want to try to do the best job you can do. You want to talk about the cattle and stay positive, and yet let people know why you placed them the way you did. First and foremost, to the Green & Gold and Brandon Callis over there. It sounds like you had a great day. I love the Cimarron trailer that’s parked between that ring and this ring. First of all, to the exhibitors. I haven’t been to a bunch of jackpot cattle shows. I don’t have Facebook. I don’t have social media. I know that The Pulse is out here taking some spectacular pictures, but I don’t even check The Pulse. I go to stock shows and after that, I am busy doing other things within my life. I don’t know what all of the other prospect shows in the country looked like this Spring, but I am willing to wager the little amount of money that I have that there will be state, county and national show champion steers and champion market cattle that come out of this ring today. It’s been absolutely incredible. You look at each one of these breed champions. You watch the Reserves come though. You look at some of these first and second places steers. If they do the right things, there’s so many national contender steers out here. It’s been absolutely impressive. My second subject very, very quickly is to our ring help. To make the show run smoothly you’ve got to have good ring help. I tell you, I have been fortunate over my years judging multiple species, I’ve worked with absolutely great

JUDGES THOUGHTS MIC

people. It’s an interesting dynamic. When you take Loren at 94 years of age and we’re not going to talk about Roger’s age today, but I know without a doubt, it’s more years of experience than I have ever worked with in a ring. So please give them a great round of applause. My final comment. I think Cindy said it best last night. How do you explain the Reid family? My schedule has been too busy. I got the call to serve as the judge at the Blackout. I said to my wife Katie; “I’ve got one small problem. I got an invitation to judge the Blackout Jackpot.” If there’s any group of people within this country that I refuse to say no to, it’s the Reid children, because they put so much of their time, and their efforts, and their funds back into the youth industry. I think the periodical that they put together is so youth focused. I said; “I can’t say no to these folks when it’s time to go to Colorado to judge a prospect steer show.” She said; “I totally agree. We will see you on Monday when you get back.” I thank my wife for allowing me to do that. How do you best exemplify

the Reid family? If you look at every light, every post, every thing in this ring has been thought up over the year. They travel to every junior national, the National Western, they spend a year on the road interacting with young people, interacting with stock show families and they love it dearly. I think Cindy Cagwin said it best and I find it interesting. We teach everybody to color inside the lines, to sit down, to be quiet and listen and to follow the directions of those that came before them. What Cindy Cagwin said last night is the three Reid children do an incredible job of coloring outside the box. We’ve never shown stock in a rings that are setup like this. The videos they put together. The pictures and what they do in terms of advertising and promotions nobody has done before. So what I complement the most is they have the ability to color outside the box and not be afraid to do things they see are important. Obviously they had to have direction. Their parents are very engaged behind the scenes. They make sure their dreams come true. To build a business and basically build a dynasty when it comes to livestock promotion and interacting with youth. With that stated, it has been my sincere pleasure to serve as a judge for the 2018 Blackout Jackpot. I would ask you to congratulate the ring help, the exhibitors and particularly the Reid family for all that they do. •

LONG HOURS

WORKING TOWARDS AN UNFORGETTABLE MOMENT.

This goal, along with the support of my parents, Ag teachers and friends, pushed me harder and encouraged me as well. The long hours at the barn prepping and caring for the steers paid off. Also the feeling was amazing winning it. It was a dream come true. â&#x20AC;¢

SUPREME CHAMPION / CAMERON CONKLE

THE SHOWTIMES / MAY/JUNE 2018

y interest in FFA began in 9th grade. I began showing pigs and wanted to begin to show cattle in my sophomore year. I knew this was not going to be easy and would require long hours at the barn taking care of the steers. My daily regime included feeding, washing, drying and working on showmanship with the steers. Additionally, I entered several shows to gain experience in the show ring with the goal of winning a major show one day!

e’ll over on your steer side, once again another extremely high quality class of cattle. My hat’s off to these exhibitors that come in here. Six, or seven, maybe even eight deep cattle that I think if were in a different class would end up being in your top pair, if not possibly your class winner. I am going to tell you though, there’s two at the top end of this class that are absolutely incredible cattle. For me, the young ladies steer I lead off with, does so rather handily in my eyes. I am here to tell you guys this one’s an absolute stallion in my eyes. Beginning at the surface, he’s the truest and most honest in terms of his structure. The way he gets off his shoulder, the use of his front knee, his hip, his hind leg, his rear pastern is absolutely on point. He oozes quality from every single pore. So deep, so fresh and attractive. The way he sets hes neck onto the apex of his shoulder. Fresh, youthful and juvenile as you study him down through his chest. Round and robust in terms of his rib cage and design, and yet you get your hands on him and he handles like a true man. So expressive, so wide, and square and true over his rib into his loin. He gets progressively wider and squarer into his pin set. And then the young lady asks this one to lead, you talk about one that’s as mobile and athletic as any I’ve ever seen. What an outstanding creature to win this particular class. •

GRAND CHAMPION STEER / TENLEY MEFFORD

MAKING HISTORY

THE YOUNGEST PERSON TO SLAP THE GRAND. Hello, my name is Tenley Mefford. I am 12 years old and in the sixth grade at Frederick Middle School. Frederick is a small community in the southwest part of Oklahoma just north of the Red River. My parents are Trent and Dawn and my 10-year-old sister is Timber. I love showing cattle, playing basketball, music and running cross country. Dad is a Family and ER Physician and my mother keeps dad in line and makes sure everything runs smooth and gets us to all of our activities. We have a small ranch here that we raise club calves. Lol, Timber and I think he has the ranch to always find us something to do and torture us with chores. Dad’s favorite quote is “Even a princess needs to get dirty”. We won’t let him know that we really enjoy it though and we will keep that one our little secret. I have been showing heifers and steers for four years now. Four years ago, during calving season one of the cows died and dad brought this little hungry Hereford heifer calf home and my sister and I raised it on the bottle in our back yard and that is when my show career actually started. Our friends Colby and Shellie Collins were over at the house and Colby thought maybe this heifer might be a good starter calf for me because she was so gentle. Along with my parents, Colby, Shellie and Brelan Brookshire have helped me so much since we started showing and have taught my sister and I so much. Dad and Colby have been best friends growing up together showing cattle. They are totally outnumbered with all of us girls running around. That’s ten eyes that roll when one of those two start a sentence with “back when we showed”.

Last year was my first year to show a steer at OYE. I remember watching the Grand Drive and thinking how totally awesome it would be to be down in the arena with all of those other kids. I told my dad that I wanted to win OYE and he laughed and said, “what kid in their right mind wouldn’t.” At the time, I don’t think either one of us really thought that it would happen this year. In March last year dad came home from Colby’s sale and had “Beast” and I was so excited because he was like a fluffy teddy bear.

Mom and Shellie always say that it takes a village to be able to do all of this and it really does. I would like to thank everyone that had helped us and a big thanks to the buyers at the sale. We are blessed to have great family, friends and neighbors and to live in such a great community. •

RAISING A CHAMPION.

Collins Cattle Inc. is a cow/calf operation located in southwest OK. This centennial farm has been producing high quality cattle for four generations. While originally focusing on Herefords they now are a multi breed operation that emphasizes on high quality functional cattle that work in the pasture and the show ring. Colby Collins came back to the ranch in 1999 to help is parents C.A and Judy (Kinder). Like any new venture Colby started the show cattle business from the ground and has worked his way up. That first year he, his mom, and their long time hired man Juan Noyola got all of the sale cattle ready in an old shed with very little water pressure or electricity. Colby remembers just hoping that someone would show up to buy them. Fast forward now to this year, which marks his 19th consecutive fall born steer sale. The first Sunday in March kicks off the show cattle sales, with another steer sale in April and then a bull offering in December. Throughout the year groups of open and bred heifers are offered private treaty. When asked about past success Colby states, “We have been fortunate enough in the last ten years to raise the Grand Champion steer at Oklahoma Youth Expo three times, the Grand Steer at San Antonio, as well as the Reserve Grand Steer at Fort Worth, along with countless breed champions shown in Oklahoma, Texas, California and Georgia. Having Tenley Mefford win this year was really awesome, you see, her dad Trent and I have been best friends for 40 years. That makes it really special.” Even though Collins Cattle is no stranger to the show ring, this was the first year that one of their very own exhibited at OYE. Cierra Collins (9) the oldest daughter of Colby and his wife Shellie showed the Reserve Grand Champion Horned Hereford Heifer at OYE. She has exhibited class winning Hereford heifers at the past two Hereford Junior Nationals, but this was her OYE debut. With two other daughters Claire (6) and Cricket (almost 3) the Collins and Mefford girls will be around the show ring for a while to come. •

Last month I was able to live my dream out and it still hasn’t settled in yet. In my dreams I won the show with Beast but in reality, Mr. Paul Clapp made it an even better dream than I could have imagined. The judge came up to me in the Grand Drive and asked me who I thought had the best steer here today. I was nervous and said, “I don’t know, there are a lot of really good ones out here”. The lady with him, Mary Lou, smiled and said your supposed say yours is the best. I then said “I think mine is the best.” He then told me to let him have my steer and show stick and to go with Mary Lou and come back down here and slap Beast Grand Steer. He then got on the mic and said I was the youngest person to slap the Grand Steer at the OYE and he was the oldest youth to be holding the Grand Steer at the OYE. It was amazing!!! It was a day that none of us will ever forget. He was a very unique looking steer and we are having his hide tanned so we can keep it.

FAMILY, FREINDS AND SHOW CATTLE.

MAY/JUNE 2018 / THE SHOWTIMES

BY KASSIDY BREMER, IL

y love of the cattle industry started at a young age. You could say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bred into me because both my parentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s families have been in the cattle industry for a long time. I attended my first national cattle show at two weeks old. This was followed by the Iowa State Fair and then the North American in Louisville when I was five months old. My uncle Kendall showed the Reserve Champion

market steer that year! When I was three, we moved from Iowa to Indiana for three years. I helped push cows up the working alley and fed bottle calves. Snowflake was my first show heifer when I was eight. I showed her at a couple jackpot shows in Iowa. This was the first of many show calves to follow. I enjoy helping select the calves I show each year, followed by halter breaking, washing, and clipping, but my favorite is fitting and grabbing the halter to go into the showring.

My goal with each calf and at each show is to win the banner, but I know it takes a lot of hard work before the show to even have one in the hunt. My biggest accomplishments have been winning showmanship at Ak-SarBen, Iowa State Fair, National Western and American Royal and Donté winning Reserve Grand Champion Steer at the 2016 American Royal. I prefer to show steers over heifers. The first steer I had success with was raised by my grandpa Kenny. I called him Gus. He was Reserve Champion progress steer at the National Junior Chianina Show and won his class in Denver. My favorite steer I’ve ever shown was one raised by my dad. We called him Lucky. He was a challenge to show and I had to work many hours with him to gain his trust. He was successful at jackpot shows and placed second in class at Denver. We are still

raising brothers and sisters of Lucky to this day. I enjoy the art of fitting cattle and won the prestigious Fitting Challenge at Ak-Sar-Ben in 2015 with two of my good friends and neighbors—Kade Killmer and Abby Greiman. My team with Avery Bennett and Luke Streit was the champion fitting team at the Iowa Beef Expo and American Royal. I’ve also participated on champion fitting teams at the National Junior Maine-Anjou and Chianina Show and National Western Stock Show. Last year at the Iowa State Fair, the team that included two of my cousins and I, placed third in the fitting contest. It is fun to be able to do all this as a family. Family is important to me. My parents have taught me about the cattle industry and are always there to help and support me. My brother, Klayton and sisters, Kiera and Kinsley are involved with showing cattle too and I know they will always be willing to help me out when I need an extra hand running a blower, fitting my calves, or just giving me a hug. Genna helps me in the show barn, especially when I’m involved in other activities. She always did my hair when I was younger and will help fit if needed. I’m very thankful for her help as well. My grandparents

THE SHOWTIMES / MAY/JUNE 2018

I’ve exhibited at the Angus, Charolais, Chianina, Hereford, and Maine-Anjou national junior shows. At each of these shows I’ve participated in many contests—public speaking, salesmanship, showmanship, photography, judging, poster, fitting and stockman’s quiz. This has taken me out of my comfort zone in many cases and I’ve learned a lot about the industry and myself.

years and that means a lot. Todd Caldwell and Brandon Jones have been a huge help to me. I have also successfully showed calves from them and their help preparing the calves for shows is priceless. I’ll be a senior this fall at Panorama High School in Panora, Iowa. I’m involved in FFA and sports. My basketball team made it to the state tournament in February and I’ve been fortunate enough to qualify for the state track meet each year.

and cousins are a big part of showing cattle and for that, I am grateful. I’ve had many friends who have been influential in my involvement in the show cattle industry. Cody and Morgan Burke helped teach me how to take care of my show cattle, fit and show properly at a young age. Casey and Remington Weiss are like older brothers to me and have always been willing to help me with anything related to cattle. Wade Rodgers has trusted us with raising and showing special calves over the past few

I plan to attend Illinois Central College in the fall of 2019 to study agriculture and participate in the livestock judging team. Then I will transfer to a university to study animal science, specializing in beef cattle reproduction and genetics. My short-term goal is to continue to participate in showing cattle at the highest level. My long-term goals are to finish college and have a career in the cattle industry. Growing up on a farm and in the cattle industry has taught me about work ethic, communication, patience, paying attention to detail, and it has given me the skills to raise and show cattle. The pursuit of success is what drives me on a daily basis at school, in sports and in the showring. •

JUNIOR NATIONAL

Date: July 1-7, 2018 Location: Grand Island, NE

Spring is in full swing. Pastures are green, calves are growing and everyone is enjoying some warmer weather. With the joys of fresh growth, comes anticipation of the greatest week of the summer. The Junior National Hereford Expo (JNHE), is full steam ahead. This year Hereford youth will follow the tracks to Grand Island, Neb., and July 1-7 will hold its place in history as one of the largest and greatest youth livestock shows in history. Get prepared to meet more than 900 of America’s greatest youth who have come together for one purpose. They and their families will tend to approximately 1,500 head of Hereford cattle. However, competing is just the tip of the iceberg. The show ring will host the very best of the Hereford breed, but even greater things are happening behind the scenes. After the dust settles, the week begins with board candidate and scholarship interviews. Cattle check-in comes soon after with ease as another year of stamped registration papers makes everyone happy. Later, the Hereford Pento-Pen program will debut and queen’s orientation wraps up an exciting first day. I hope everyone is training hard for the 5K run first thing Monday morning. Following the race is a full day of Hereford Bowl, CHB grill-off, Queen’s Tea and an exciting new opening ceremonies. Tuesday holds the judging contest, so have your pencils and minds sharp. Speech contests and the fitting contest are followed by a membership meeting that we welcome all juniors to attend. During this meeting, the National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) board of directors will give updates and reports. Also join voting delegates to see NJHA board candidates give their campaign speeches. Wednesday is showmanship day. Be sure to be aware of classes and be to the ring on time. Come back to the showring Wednesday evening to watch the fierce competition in senior showmanship finals and here an educational word from our title sponsor BioZyme, Inc. Thursday will bring a busy day of cow-calf pairs, steers

and bred-and-owned bulls and heifers. Friday and Saturday wrap up our week with the owned heifer show. Once the JNHE starts, the week can fly by at the blink of an eye. Be sure to take the time to look over the schedule and plan ahead. The NJHA Board is pumped up and ready to kick off a great junior national. Along with the world, the NJHA continues to evolve. There are new and exciting events happening during our time in Grand Island. The junior board has worked diligently to keep improving the JNHE. Opening ceremonies will be new this year with group classes incorporated. We hope you enjoy the change of pace. My favorite part of the JNHE is seeing friends from all across the country. The conversations we have and memories made are worth every mile driven. There are few opportunities to network with as many motivated and talented people like those found at JNHE. Take advantage of the junior national, have lots of fun and meet someone you have never met before. I also encourage you to sign up for a speech contest or even get a team together for the CHB grill-off. Getting out of your comfort zone is a very uneasy feeling, but is highly rewarding. Competing in 4-H, FFA and Kentucky Farm Bureau (KFB) speech contests helped me break out of my shell. I remember my favorite speech memory like it was yesterday. I was a junior in high school and thirty minutes from presenting a prepared speech to judges and a crowd at the KFB outstanding youth contest. I was going through my cards one by one trying to stay calm and then came the curve ball. A nearby FFA advisor and friend walks up beside me, takes my cards, and gives a warm smile as she walked away. It seemed unappreciated then, but now I cannot thank her enough for taking those cards. The moment I stepped up to give that speech defined who I am today. I hope you find the threshold of your comfort zone this year at the 2018 JNHE and step across it. We look forward to seeing you in Grand Island. All Aboard The Hereford Express!

ABOUT THE LIMOUSIN BREED

Luke 12:34 states, “Family: for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Each year the Limousin family of junior exhibitors, parents, and other enthusiasts of the breed join together for another exciting year of advocating for the Limousin breed. Not only is the national junior show a time for exhibiting the outstanding cattle the breed has to offer, but it is also a time of fellowship for those enthusiasts from across the United States. With over 25 states of exhibitors competing yearly at the event the show has become

one of the most sought after in the country. Competitors have the opportunity to participate in multiple contest areas including: generating a magazine advertisement, showing off photography skills through a photo contest, judging the show cattle, participating in oral reasoning questions through quiz bowl, and competing in the showmanship contest! Regardless of the show itself the national junior show is a time of coming together once a year and spending time with the family you treasure that live hundreds of miles away and above all share the same passion of great Limousin cattle!

• Early on, cattle from France were not eligible for im

portation into the United States, as France was a hoofand-mouth disease affected area, however the Canadian government did agree to accept French cattle after they had successfully completed a strict three-step quarantine program. Those same cattle were required to success fully pass a 30-day "on the farm" quarantine, passing the quarantine allowed, semen to be shipped throughout North America and later allowing live cattle to be imported.

LOGOS ABOUT THE GELBVIEH BREED

The AGA was started in 1971 and now consists of approximately 1,000 members with a registry database that contains over 1 million animals including approximately 45,000 currently active Gelbvieh, BalancerÂŽ, and Gelbvieh-influenced cows. Gelbvieh and Balancer genetics are well known throughout the beef industry for their maternal strengths and superior growth. With attributes such as more pounds of calf weaned, added fertility, greater cow herd longevity and heavier carcass weights, just to name a few, Gelbvieh and Balancer cattle fit well into a crossbreeding system and provide genetics that work for the commercial cattle business. One of the highlights of the summer for AGJA members is participating in the annual junior national show. Junior members of all ages from across the United States gather with their families for a week of youth development, education, competition, and fun.

Sedalia, MO

â&#x20AC;˘ Pinzgauer steers are known for their feed

efficiency with above average daily gains and can hang carcass weights that exceed 60%.

Pinzgauer cattle have been in the United States since the early 70's but originated in Austria in the 1600's. Pinzgauers are a dual purpose breed, known for both milk and beef. Females mature early, are extremely fertile and calve easily. They have hair and skin attributes that prevent insect as well as sun problems. Pinzgauers are very gentle and easily adapt to most climates. Their fertility and longevity in both males and females make this one of the most practical breeds. When crossed with other breeds, Pinzgauers produce cattle with increased milk production and fertility, early maturity and hybrid vigor. This year our National Pinzgauer Show will be our 40th Anniversary and we are expecting past and present members from all over the United States to attend. Our host hotel is the Best Western State Fair Inn in Sedalia, Missouri. We will hold our banquet and auction on August 18th. We welcome anyone interested in Pinzgauer cattle to attend our show and banquet. For more information, please Like our 2018 National Pinzgauer Show Facebook page.

ABOUT THE PINZGAUER BREED

ABOUT THE MINI HEREFORD BREED

Date: June 17-23, 2018

The Miniature Hereford breed comes from a long rooted history in Herfordshire, England. Miniature Herefords are direct descendants of Hereford cattle that most people think of when they hear the breed name. A common misconception about this docile and maternal breed is that they carry a dwarf gene that helps maintain the shorter stature. However this is not the case. Using selective breeding strategies over time for shorter framed cattle, the Miniature Hereford breed was created.

MAY/JUNE 2018 / THE SHOWTIMES

e all get in a hurry in life. Have you ever tried to rush while working cattle, causing everything to go terribly wrong, knowing that if you just would’ve slowed down and relaxed, the cattle would calm down and work the way they should? In our walk of life, sometimes we need to take this same approach and just slow things down. It seems as though this time of year is always “crazy busy”. With the Texas majors, steer sales, and a demanding full-time job, I feel like the days, weeks, and months fly by and I’m just trying to keep my head above water. We get busier all of the time and if we aren’t careful, things that aren’t truly important creep in to our lives and occupy our time that should be spent honoring God.

SLOW DOWN AND NOTICE WHAT YOU HAVE AROUND YOU

BY BOB AND JENNIFER BRUNS, TX

When we run at this fast pace, it’s easy to lose our joy and replace it with a sense of urgency. You really can’t enjoy life until you slow down and notice what you have around you. It takes time to appreciate the beauty of a sunrise, the butterflies, or the fragrant smell of a flower. Have you ever noticed that the faster you are traveling, the less you are able to observe? If you’re driving a car, you may notice a few things, but when you slow down to a walk, you notice so much more and can truly take it in with all of your senses. God is all around us, but we can’t feel His presence without slowing down. Psalm 46:10 reads, “Be still, and

message

know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” We can’t get to know God if we don’t slow down long enough to hear Him. Easier said than done, right? I know it is for me. It feels like every minute of my day is scheduled and then unexpected things come up and add to what was already planned. For me, the best solution is to always give God the first part of my day before “life” happens. Schedule His time. We all can take 15-20 minutes every morning to read our Bible, pray and maybe read a devotion. The day will always be busy. Get off on the right foot. The second thing we can do, is learn to say no. We should ask ourselves if the things we are spending our time doing bring glory to God? If the answer is no, its time to cut some things out and make time for something eternal. Also ask yourself what will matter 10 years from now? Make a choice to spend your time doing something that truly matters. The third thing is big. Put the devices down. When we constantly stop what we are doing to check our phones, social media, or surf the net, we are taking time away from our day that could be spent being productive. Whatever it is that you do, fully engage in it. Don’t allow for distractions. You will get more enjoyment out of whatever it is, if you can focus on it 100%. I made this a priority lately and felt a new kind of freedom.

We also have to decide how much is enough. Comparing ourselves to others instead of feeling content with what we have can cause us to pour ourselves into work. Ecclesiastics 4:6-8 teaches us, “6 Better one handful with tranquility than two handfuls with toil and chasing after the wind. 7 Again I saw something meaningless under the sun: 8 There was a man all alone; he had neither son nor brother. There was no end to his toil, yet his eyes were not content with his wealth. ‘For whom am I toiling,’ he asked, ‘and why am I depriving myself of enjoyment?’ This too is meaningless—a miserable business!” When we are content with what we have, we can relax and enjoy it. Exodus 20:10-12 explains “10 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. 11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore, the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.” God wants us to be rested physically and mentally so that we can be restored spiritually. Taking an entire day of rest is nearly impossible in the livestock business, but we should make the best effort we can to achieve this. Always remember, we are not in control, God is. If you keep this in mind, it is easier to lose the urgent feeling, get in the presence of God, and feel His peace wash over you. •

GINGER COOKIES SIMPLY IRRESISTIBLE

INGREDIENTS

Shirley has baked these for us to enjoy while at shows and they are simply irresistible! We have shared them with friends and family alike and they are always a hit! They warm the soul. -The Showtimes

2 ¼ Cups All-Purose Flour 2 t. Ground Ginger 1 t. Baking Soda ¾ t. Ground Cinnamon ½ t. Ground Cloves ¼ t. Salt ¾ Cup Margarine, softened - I use butter 1Cup White or Brown Sugar - If using brown sugar add a little more of the spices 1 Egg 1 T. Water ¼ Cup Molasses 2 T. White Sugar Almond Bark

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Sift together the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, cream together the margarine and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, then stir in the water and molasses. Gradually stir the sifted ingredients into the molasses mixture. Shape dough into walnut sized balls, I prefer to use a cookie scoop, and roll them in the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet or use parchment paper, and flatten slightly. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Dip ½ to ¾ of each cookie in almond bark. Store in airtight container. •

That pretty much says it all. We could tell you how our show feed helps get that fresh appearance, a modern front end, fresh body and optimal belly shape, all without sacrificing structural soundness. But one look at our champions already told you that. Animals speak louder than words. TM

WE COVER SHOWS DIFFERENTLY.

Extreme Natural Stride is the most comprehensive formula for join support on the market today! In the show ring, soundness is a Necessity and with the advancements in genetics and performance, we have stressed the structure of show livestock to the limits. Whether it’s swelling, join pain, flexibility, wear and tear, or other basic movement issues, Extreme Natural Stride is your simple solution. Renowned as a natural lubricant, Cetyl Myristoleate is an essential component in Extreme Natural Stride and along with 9 other key ingredients Extreme is an all in one multi-ingredient product that attacks a joint from all directions. You are guaranteed the most bang for your buck!

Don’t use something that only gives you a one shot deal at one show. Use Hide And Hair. It gives you a much larger window of hair growth to broaden your options on shows you might go. Hide And Hair is the ONLY choice in hair growth products if you are serious about showing. It’s time to be thinking about getting ready for summer shows. Use for 90 to 120 days and for optimal results start feeding 120 days out. Don’t get left behind, use what the champions are using!!

THE SHOWTIMES / MAY/JUNE 2018

GluCoat is the next level or generation to a fat source or supplement. You will never use a fat product again! • It’s a sugar product, not a fat product such as vegetable oil. Sugar speeds up the rumen for better feed intake. • It contains Cell-rate with millions of dollars worth of nucleotides and nucleic acids studies behind it. • Also contains a refined flavoured fish oil which is great for skin and hair at the same time provides a great source of the Omega Fatty Acids for joint health. • B Vitamins (B12, B6, Riboflavin, Niacin) which has been known to increase appetite. • Molasses base so cattle, sheep, and goats love it. They will feel better, act better, and their eating habits will change. GluCoat will keep you ready for the ring!
