WHR Breeders

WHR Assessments for 2023 were sent in November. If you have not received yours, please contact the ASA office as soon as possible.

1. WHR inventory assessments must be completed and paid in full prior to registering calves born in the current assessment period, (i.e. 2023 assessment on a dam must be completed and paid in order to register her calf born in 2023.)

2. Included with each assessment is the registration of a calf born to the dam in the year she was assessed (if calf is registered prior to one year of age) and a free transfer of said calf (if recorded within 60 days from the date of the sale.) (i.e. cost to register a calf born in 2023 to an assessed 2023 dam will be $0, if calf is registered within 12 months)

2023 ASSESSMENT FEE SCHEDULE: November 1, 2022 - January 9, 2023 $18 January 10, 2023 - February 28, 2023 $24 March 1, 2023 and after $30

*Calves born in previous year(s) to unassessed dams will incur additional fees.

New Rule - Jan. 1, 2022

The Board of Directors unanimously approved a new rule, which begins January 1, 2022: “All bulls (Shorthorn & ShorthornPlus) born January 1, 2022 and after will be required to have a genomic profile and parentage markers on file in order to register any progeny with the American Shorthorn Association”.

2023 ASA Annual Membership

This means that regardless of service type, all bulls (Shorthorn & ShorthornPlus) used for breeding need to be genomically tested (currently, this is the 100K test but could be subject to change according to Neogen standards in the future). This pertains to AI sires as well as pasture sires/clean up bulls. The rule only affects bulls born after Jan 1, 2022, so this rule won’t really come into play until their progeny are born, late 2023 or 2024. Please be aware that AI sires still require the 3 genetic conditions as well – TH, PHA, and DS.

New DNA Card Fees

Our approved lab for DNA, Neogen, has increased the cost of blood and hair cards to the ASA and as a result, it is necessary to start charging for them to cover this increase, plus the postage it takes to send them.

Blood cards are now $1/card and hair cards are $2/card. Methods for obtaining them have not changed. Please call the office or fill out the card request on shorthorn.org to order. The lab’s preferred methods are TSU samples and blood cards. TSU kits can be purchased directly through Neogen or Allflex.

*Remember, there is an additional fee for testing hair and semen.

**DO NOT test twins via blood samples.

Association Outlook

Bringing in the New Year

As we start 2023, I’d like to review some changes that have been enacted during the past year or two at the Association.

I want to clarify for everyone the differences between the Shorthorn Foundation and the Shorthorn Youth Development Fund. So, there is no misunderstanding; both are 501 (c) (3) corporations making them non-profit foundations.

The Shorthorn Foundation has been around for many years, supporting the Shorthorn breed. It is the source of memorials for the Shorthorn breed and is responsible for scholarships that are awarded to junior members at the Junior National. Donations are accepted for these purposes and more. It has and will continue to support research projects for the breed using donations earmarked for this purpose. The Shorthorn Foundation is still functioning as it always has to support the breed through donations for these and any other purposes donors may request. The Foundation supports our youth and donates the cost of the Herdsman of the Year Award and the list goes on as this organization underwrites the needs of our membership. A system is in place to keep donations for specific purposes identified to be used for that purpose. The main goals have been memorials for scholarships or other memorials specifically identified for personal wishes.

The Shorthorn Youth Development Fund (SYDF) is a foundation established with a separate board of directors for the sole purpose of supporting the National Junior Shorthorn Show & Youth Conference and Junior Board activities. All funds go to these objectives; the goal of this foundation is to provide sustainability for our junior programs, including the Junior National. The cost of this single activity continues to rise, and the need for more funds to maintain

the current level is a high priority. Donations all go to the general fund for the purpose of the junior programs. The SYDF Board of Directors is responsible for securing the funds needed for the longevity of this great event in the breed. The Shorthorn Junior National & Youth Conference is by far the largest attended event in the breed each year. Last year the SYDF contributed over $127,000 to the National Junior Shorthorn Show and Youth Conference. The energy of this SYDF Board for support from our breeders and beyond is ultra-important to continue the activities at the Junior National we have all become accustomed to.

It was time to clarify the differences so you can understand how they work and what they do for the breed. Both foundations are important to our future and there are differences in the goals of the two foundations, as neither one is trying to overlap the other. Both need your support to continue meeting their goals for supporting the Shorthorn breed.

A change going into action as of the new year is the process of DNA submission. This will streamline the process, allowing breeders to send samples directly to the lab. For this to work, some very detailed steps need to be followed. First, the animals you are testing must be recorded with a U number in front of the registration number or be registered and have their registration number attached to the documents - a form is in the Digital Beef registry to fill out. The bar codes on the DNA sample cards must be included, and the bar codes must be correct. Once that form is submitted to the ASA office, it will be approved by staff and returned to accompany your sample that you mail directly to the lab. There will be more detailed instructions on this new process on page 10 in this issue. We will also be completing some

how-to videos and step-by-step tutorials that will be accessible on our social media and website. This should help with turnaround time and streamline the DNA testing process. I caution everyone - it is extremely important to doublecheck your information and make sure it is all correct and complete or the samples may be put aside when they reach the lab. ASA Staff will be ready to help you with this process over the phone. There will be limited staff available during January due to covering the Cattlemen’s Congress, Denver and Fort Worth Shows, plus the NCBA Convention starting February 1st and Dixie National later in February.

Many of the fees also changed at the ASA on January 1, so please check the new fee schedule. Be sure to get your WHR assessments done by midnight, January 9 to receive the discount - an even bigger savings than in the past. The need to increase fees is necessary due to the increases in costs to the ASA.

The month of January is maybe our busiest with three national shows in one month. It takes a lot of staff and member’s time and attention to make these events successful. Don’t forget the “Summit National Shorthorn Sale” at the Cattlemen’s Congress on January 7th. This year’s sale may be the strongest offering we have ever seen in this event.

We are starting off the new year with a bang at OKC the first week of January then on to Denver and Fort Worth, followed by the NCBA Convention and Trade Show in New Orleans and Dixie National. 2023 is set be a busy time for Shorthorn breeders as we a continued increase in new memberships and activity. On January 30th Shorthorns will be featured on The American Rancher on RFD TV. Excitement in the breed continues to grow. 2023 has a lot of unknowns, but one sure thing we see is the acceptance and growth of the Shorthorn breed across America!

Here we are, at the beginning of another year. Many people like to set New Years’ resolutions, and to those people I say, ‘more power to you!’ I like to look at the new year as a clean slate, so with that in mind, I want to share some pointers when it comes to our newest DNA process of sending samples directly to the lab.

Here are some key factors to successfully send DNA directly to the lab:

1. Animals must be registered or recorded so there is a correct International ID attached to the results.

2. The DNA submission form must accompany samples sent to the lab. If you send samples to the lab without a submission form, they are likely going to be making several phone calls to try to figure out who, what, when, where and why these animals are, and rest assured, there will be additional fees incurred if this is the case. Not to mention, they might either return those samples to you,

or even put them into storage without testing.

3. Possibly the most important piece of information though, is the barcode for your samples. A unique barcode is assigned to every sample. If you have a sample type that doesn’t have a barcode – for example, a semen straw – please reach out to the office and we will assign a barcode for that sample. We are finding that while many breeders are being diligent in including this barcode, there is a huge margin for error, since these barcodes are typically 10+ characters long.

My best advice for nailing the barcodes the first time – invest in a barcode scanner! They, like most things these days, come in a vast range of lowto-high end, but as long as it scans your barcode, that is all you really need it to do! You can find them online as well as in-store. I have seen them on Amazon as well as in stores such as Staples or Office Max.

The tissue samples (called Allflex Tags in Digital Beef) have their own barcodes, which come in the form of QR codes. We have not yet purchased a QR code scanner, but I personally have downloaded a QR scanning app for my cell phone to use for these, which helps immensely, especially if you’ve customized your tissue sampling vials. When entering this type of barcode, be sure to include all letters and numbers.

If you have specific questions about sample taking, handling, or shipping, please refer to the guides on shorthorn. org – there should be an answer for just about any sample type you would use. There have been several changes implemented that start this year, which can feel overwhelming. Your ASA staff is here to help!

I hope everyone had a great holiday season; and with that, here’s to a great 2023, Shorthorn!

In the Know

Jam Packed January

Happy New Year and what a better way to start than with a jam-packed January full of cattle shows. The ASA staff has been working very hard in the office preparing for these shows and as always, are excited to see our breeders bring at the best of their cattle to these shows. Our staff will be attending the following shows: Cattlemen’s Congress, National Western Stock Show (NWSS), Fort Worth Stock Show and the Dixie National Livestock Show.

Cattlemen’s Congress is one of our biggest shows and we look forward to having a great week in OKC. This Super National show is always an exciting event, so double check the schedule and make sure you don’t overlook all the exciting things going on. Especially the Summit sale, this is an event you don’t want to miss.

National Western Stock Show this year follows closely behind Cattlemen’s Congress. We have worked with the

NWSS staff to make it possible for Shorthorn breeders to be able to attend both shows. If you are traveling to Cattlemen’s Congress and NWSS, check out the schedule to make sure you are arriving to the facilities when needed.

Fort Worth Stock Show is the last show we are attending in January. For open show cattle, make sure your open entries are entered the same as the owner on your registration papers. If you are finding yourself in need of a correction or fix, contact one of us and we will help you get it sorted out.

We round out the show season by attending the Dixie National. Although this show is in February, we finally have a schedule for the show and wanted to include it for those breeders who are going. Please find the Dixie National Schedule on page 28 This was a popular show the past couple years and we hope to see many Shorthorn breeders return this year.

We are always excited to attend these shows and look forward to socializing with Shorthorn breeders. Please double check the schedule for each show, page 28 in the News and Notes, so you don’t miss out on all that is to come. If you originally entered for a show, but are not able to make it, please let us know. This helps us better prepare and plan when completing check in at those show. As always, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Cassie (cassie@ shorthorn.org) or myself (wade@ shorthorn.org).

We strive to always serve our breeders to the best of our abilities, and we appreciate everyone being patient and understanding as we spend most of the month out of the office traveling to shows. If you see us at a show, and have any questions or need some assistance, please let us know and we’d be happy to help.

Goals Not Resolutions

It is the time of the year for setting New Year’s Resolutions and as I began writing this article I was thinking about the difference between resolutions and goals. So, I did a quick google search and found a Forbes article that discussed the difference. The article suggested setting goals versus resolutions and said why goals are more beneficial and how you can achieve them.

The biggest reason that goals are more beneficial and easier to accomplish is that they are more specific with the best ones being really specific. The more specific you are when you break down the goals you want to achieve, the more likely you will accomplish those goals. You can track those goals and stay focused.

Another suggestion from the article is to keep your goals visible. Write them on sticky notes and put them on your computer screen, hang them on your bathroom mirror or keep them as

a note on your phone you can check off. Whatever way you keep yourself organized, add those goals to that you can see them and see your progress.

You can always turn your resolution into a goal. Take your broad resolution and narrow it down. For example, if your resolution is to save more money then your goal could be to save a certain amount of money each paycheck to reach that certain amount of money saved as your goal.

It is also suggested to choose no more than three goals to work on at a time. If you try to do too much at once, you’ll end up getting overwhelmed which can delay progress. And if you get delayed and lose motivation, you may give up on the goals you have set.

One of my goals this year is for the National Junior Shorthorn Show to be larger than last year with more exhibitors and more head shown.

Another goal is for more money to be raised for the Shorthorn Youth Development Fund. That can’t be done without our generous donors and sponsors. Thank you so much to everyone who has supported us so far!

Those are two of the main professional goals I hope to achieve before 2024, alongside a few other smaller ones.

Seth and I have set a personal goal of finishing our cattle working area at our house so by 2024, we can have cattle of our own. We have spent the last few months building a new run off our barn so we can feed some calves for our freezer. This spring, we hope to finish building.

So, take that resolution, make it into a goal and achieve that goal. “If the plan doesn’t work, change the plan, not the goal.”

What will your goals be for 2023?

American Shorthorn Association 2022 Annual Meeting, Forum & Awards Banquet

The American Shorthorn Association 150th Anniversary Celebration officially came to an end during the 2022 ASA Annual Meeting, Forum & Awards Banquet. We kicked it off with a social on November 18th at the Hilton Kansas City Airport. Breeders enjoyed drinks, hors d’oeuvres and conversations with friends in a relaxing atmosphere.

On November 19th, the day began with the review and closing remarks of the 150th Anniversary Celebration. Joe Bales, Toby Jordan and Rick Leone shared the highlights of a great year celebrating the history of the Shorthorn breed. Rick Leone also presented details of the National Western CatchA-Calf with Shorthorn cattle involvement.

It was a great way to wrap up the anniversary and look forward to the future of the breed.

Next up was Bryce Schumann to discuss the ASA 2022 Strategic Plan. He shared the details of the board meeting held in June as the board discussed goals they have for the breed in the next few years. This plan includes four initiatives;

increase revenue to enhance and develop core business opportunities, create a better equipped and motivated breeder, build high brand equity for ASA and Shorthorn, and establish Shorthorns as the preferred breed for commercial crossbreeding programs.

After learning about the strategic plan attendees listened to two different speakers discussing genetics. First was Dr. David Kendall, ST Genetics Director of Genetic Advancement spoke about advancement using genomics via zoom.

Next was Dr. Tamar Crum, a geneticist at Acuity Swine, discussed Genetic Improvement in the Swine Industry relating it back to the cattle industry.

After the speakers and lunch, the Annual Meeting began with Montie Soules, Executive Secretary/CEO of ASA giving the state of the association report. The top five states for registrations are Ohio with 1,587 registrations, Indiana with 1,286 registrations, Iowa with 1,078 registrations, Kansas with 1,011 registrations and Illinois with 929 registrations. He also discussed how our membership continues to grow each year. The nominating committee submitted three candidates for available board positions. John Russell, Texas,

and Lee Miller, Ohio were both up for re-election and Rick Osterday, South Dakota, was a new nominee. They were all selected to serve a three-year term on the ASA board. The board elected new officers for the nine-member board. The new president is John Sonderman of Nebraska, and the vice-president is Toby Jordan of Indiana. The remaining board members are Joe Bales of Tennessee, Dave Greenhorn of Ohio, Mark Gordon of Illinois, Lee Miller of Ohio, John Russell of Texas, Jeff Bedwell of Oklahoma, and Rick Osterday of South Dakota.

Following the Annual Meeting was a social and the awards banquet. Many breeders were recognized for their accomplishments over the past year. Awards were presented for Century Club, Performance Awards and Show Awards. Our Heritage Award went Doyle Hendrickson and was presented to his family. The Merit Award went to Darryl Rahn. The Builders of the Breed were Jeff Bedwell, Cory Bollum, and Greg Crawford.

Make plans to join us in 2023 in conjunction with the American Royal. The Annual Meeting will be October 21st in Kansas City. We look forward to seeing everyone there again!

Doyle Hendrickson was born and raised with Shorthorns in Nebraska on January 3, 1933. The farm name, “Nile Valley”, comes from his grandfather, David Hendrickson, of Cairo, NE. In 1903, Doyle’s Great-Great Grandfather H.S. Balcom went to England with the owner of Ravenwood Shorthorns from Missouri and bought cows from the Rose of Sharon cow family. His Grandpa David bought several offspring from those cows at a Balcom dispersal sale. Some of Doyle’s fondest childhood memories are riding with Grandpa David on the Bettendorf wagon seat driven by a team of mules, discussing livestock care and evaluation. He spoke about linear evaluation and the benefits of a uniform, quality herd. Dad was only 6 when his grandpa passed but those lessons and love of farming stayed with him for a lifetime. The metal wagon seat now resides at Nile Valley Farm in Sedalia, MO.

After Serving in the Military, Doyle came home and gave Alice Hinkson a diamond ring. They were wed on August 28, 1955. Soon after they bought a registered Shorthorn cow and bull at a dispersal sale. Doyle would keep his eye on sale bills around the country, including purchase of Page’s Imperial Rose 3rd X and three daughters from Sand Springs, Oklahoma in 1963.

In 1972, Doyle & Alice moved the family and Shorthorn herd from the Hendrickson homestead of Cairo, NE, to the present farm at Sedalia, Mo. The name Nile Valley became a play on words that tied the old location to the new. Once established in the heart of Fescue country where ample grass grows, Doyle transitioned his cows from bunk line fed to exclusively grass grazing.

to detail was usually accompanied by the phrase, “Ya gotta do what ya love and love what ya do.

Nile Valley Shorthorns is home to 28 Performance Awarded cows, offering several cow families that have remained viable contributors through the transition from milking to beef. In June 2020, the Hendrickson’s were acknowledged for their long history and their success with the Shorthorn breed when the Missouri Shorthorn Association (MSA), during a tour of the cow herd at Nile Valley, named Doyle the 2020 Breeder of the year. From 1983 to 1997, he received the top-Quality Milk Award 11 times. In 2000 and 2002, he bred the top gain heifer and in 2002, 2005 and 2006, Nile Valley earned Premier Breeder & Exhibitor honors at the National Dual-Purpose Shows. In 2007, the Hendrickson’s were named Dual Purpose Breeder of the Year; and proclaimed Citizen of the Year in 2008. He was always reading to keep up on the latest trends and data and searching sale catalogs for that perfect cow or bull.

Additionally, the Hendrickson’s have faithfully donated their time to serve and promote the Shorthorn breed in multiple ways, including Doyle serving three terms on the American Milking Shorthorn Society (AMSS) board of directors.

From 4-H leader to church elder to Missouri Cattlemen’s Association Official Beef House dish washer for many years; Doyle, with the help of Alice, dedicated a lifetime of service to his community and to his Shorthorn cattle. A Memorial Contribution was given to the Shorthorn Youth Development Fund.

Merit Award 2022

The Shorthorn Merit Award recognizes individuals who support and promote the cattle industry. This award honors those beef cattle industry leaders who have specifically assisted and had a positive influence on the Shorthorn breed. These individuals have been exceptional supporters and dedicated friends of the Shorthorn breed for many years.

Darryl Rahn

For 42 years, he and Alice milked those cows, then on his 65th birthday in 1998, on a cold January morning, Doyle decided to not retire, but just change course. After the milking stopped, Doyle called his older cousins to try to re-invent their grandpa David’s linear measuring detail of the beef cows. This is one of Nile Valley’s key selection methods for a uniform working cow herd. Complex weights and measures and attention to detail in record keeping has been a family project directed by Doyle’s passion and vision. They have nearly 27 years of herd information recorded and cataloged by Alice and Doyle. Julie now imports data collected at the chute and scales.” This passion and attention

Darryl Rahn was born and raised on a livestock and grain farm in Lanark, Illinois. His parents, Willard and Ruth Rahn, worked the farm that had been in the family since 1868. His love of Shorthorns began with the purchase of a Shorthorn heifer when he was seven years old from the McGinty Family of Mt Carroll, Illinois. During the early years of the herd, Darryl exhibited Shorthorns throughout Illinois and showed at the Chicago International for the first time at the age of 13.

His herd grew to number 30 cows with a herd bull he purchased from Wernacres in Lena, Illinois by the time he entered college. His herd paid 100% of his college education. He graduated from Illinois State University with a degree in Agri-Business and Education. Following graduation, Darryl and his wife Carole married and began their journey in family life. They have two children, Andy and Angela, and four grandchildren. He continued to own Shorthorn cattle. Their son, Andy exhibited the Reserve Champion Steer at a Junior

Doyle had a heart of gold that bled red, white, and roan. He is survived by his wife, Alice, of Sedalia who still presides at the farm. Additionally, survived by two sons, John Hendrickson and spouse, Sue of Centralia, IL., James Hendrickson and spouse, Debbie, of Oxford, MI., and one daughter, Julie Carpenter of Sedalia and her spouse, Mark Carpenter of New London, MO. Also surviving are three grandchildren; Kyle Hendrickson of Hillsborough NC, Jesse Hendrickson of Brooklyn, NY, and Allyson Sampson attending the University of Missouri, majoring in Animal Science. Other survivors include three step granddaughters, Christina, Ruby, and Kim and their six children and six grandchildren.

National in Ohio and two years later raised an All-American Junior heifer calf. Angela was also involved in 4-H and showed cattle locally.

Darryl took a position as cow herd manager at Questing Hills Farm in Illinois with Don Cagwin, who was the farm manager at that time. This began a relationship with Don that has lasted to the present. When Cagwin left the farm to begin Cagwin Cattle Services, he asked Darryl to join him as a partner in the firm. This began an over 20-year run as a firm that managed Shorthorn sales throughout the United States and Canada.

Early in that time, Darryl was contacted by Sherman Berg who was at that time running the Shorthorn Country. Sherman asked Darryl to be an advertising representative for the magazine as he traveled with CCS. This began an association with the Shorthorn Country that continues today.

Darryl’s love of the Shorthorn Breed has never wavered, and he cherishes all the great people he has met and the friendships he has made over the years. Congratulations to Darryl Rahn for being our 2022 Merit Award Winner.

Doyle Hendrickson

When we think of someone who has relentlessly committed to the foundational future of the Shorthorn breed by investing time in both people and cattle, Greg Crawford of Crawford Family Shorthorns, should be at the top of that list.

Greg’s passion for the Shorthorn breed was ignited as a young 4-H member when he showed a Shorthorn heifer. Yet, the first bricks were really put into place when Greg’s kids were old enough to show, and thus, Crawford Family Shorthorns was born.

The spark was quickly passed through multiple generations of the Crawford Family. His daughters, Bev (Crawford) Pearson and Gwen Crawford, were both encouraged to be active in the breed. Starting with holding roles in the Nebraska Junior Shorthorn Association, promoting the breed as the Nebraska Shorthorn Lassie Queen and being on the National Junior Board. Gwen went on to continue her involvement in the breed after her junior years where she held the position of Director of Junior Activities for the American Shorthorn Association. She is currently a trustee of the Shorthorn Foundation. Proof of the love for the breed has been shared down through even his grandchildren. Two of his grandchildren - Gerrit Pearson and Brooke (Pearson) Gillmore – both served terms on the National Junior Shorthorn Board.

Over the years, Greg has been to 31 National Junior Shorthorn Shows, hauling a trailer to 30 of those! Even when Greg did not have a child or grandchild showing, he would help juniors who had the desire to be involved and take them to state and national shows. He looks forward to getting the opportunity to continue the tradition by taking his now 2-year-old Great Grand Child, Kaden Gillmore once he is old enough to show.

Greg’s exhibition and leadership roles have extended to local, state and national levels. He has served as the Shorthorn breed

Cory Bollum was raised on a diversified crop and livestock farm near Goodhue, Minnesota. He was an active member in 4-H, FFA, and the Junior Shorthorn association. He earned his B.S. degree in Agricultural Business with minors in Animal Science, Economics, Farm Management, and Agricultural Economics from the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. Cory has worked at Hormel Foods for over 31 years in various positions and currently is the Director of Pork Operations and Procurement, based in Austin, Minnesota.

Shorthorns have always been a part of Bollum’s life as he grew up with them as a part of the 5th generation family farm established at the current farm location in Goodhue, Minnesota, homesteaded in 1863. He attributes much of the family’s success to the many lessons learned from those previous generations, especially his Grandpa Walter and even more so from his dad, Curtis. They both instilled insistent hard-core values on treating people honestly and fairly and cull the cowherd excessively hard on dispositions and udders.

Bollum Family Shorthorns ownership today consists of the 3 siblings (Cory, Carl, and LeAnn) and their families. Cory and Mary and their 3 children Connor, Josh, and Emily. Carl and Becca and their 2 children Lane and Faith. Despite being busy in their respective professional lives they are all active in many different livestock activities and all are involved in Agriculture. The Bollum family has exhibited cattle at many regional and national shows across the country. And most proudly have exhibited cattle at the

representative and a consigner at the Nebraska Cattlemen’s Classic every year since it started in 1991. He was one of the founders of the Nebraska Junior Beef Expo and has been the Shorthorn breed representative for the last 25 years. His passion for the youth and the breed is also shown by his dedication to the Nebraska Junior Shorthorn Association by serving as their advisor since the 1990’s when his daughters aged out. He has also held the summer field day at his farm multiple years.

A fourth-generation exhibitor at the Lancaster County Fair, Greg continued to extend his service as 4-H Beef Superintendent for the last 25 years. Greg has also attended the Nebraska State Fair for over seven decades, winning numerous banners in both the bull and heifer arena. In addition, he acts as the Shorthorn breed representative for the Nebraska State Fair. This past year he was honored by being chosen as the Grand Marshall of the Nebraska State Fair Parade.

Greg and his family have exhibited at the North American International Livestock Exposition, as well as the National Western Stock Show where he had the honor of having the Reserve Champion Pen of Three Bulls two consecutive years.

Greg was a part of the Highlights of the Heartland Sale from 1996 – 2009, hosting it at his farm on multiple occasions before joining the Durham Nation Production Sale in North Dakota at which he currently sells females. He also sells bulls and heifers at the Nebraska Cattlemen’s Classic and by private treaty. Crawford Family Shorthorns has grown to a 40-cow herd with sought-after genetics.

As you can see, Greg has shown his devotion to the breed through leadership, support of youth programs and by careful genetic selection in his own herd, to name a few. Our hats off to Greg for this welldeserved recognition as a 2022 Builder of the Breed.

Minnesota State Fair for over 80 years. They have had many years of great success and most humbly have been awarded the “Premier Breeder” plaque 14 of the last 16 years of the state fair. Like in previous generations all the children have been very active in 4-H, FFA, and Junior Shorthorn activities among many other sports and activities. This upcoming year marks a very special year for BFS, as it will be Emily’s last year at Junior Nationals and Lane’s first!

The operation today runs over 600 acres, and the cow herd consists of 125 cows, mostly all purebreds and just a few commercial cows used as recips. They have performance tested for the last 30+ years and have ultra-sounded all the heifers and bulls for the last 10+ years. They have marketed their cattle and genetics throughout the United States and Canada. They were one of the major consignors to the Shorthorn Pride sale. They have consigned to The Revival sale for most of its 20+ years of existence and they also have held their own annual online “Red, White, and Roan” production sale for the last 13 years.

One of the things Cory is the proudest of is to be a small part of BFS historic past and to have the ability to pass the operation on to the next generation(s)! Bollum is excited about the future of the Shorthorn breed, by utilizing all the genomic tools and information that are available today in conjunction with all the great people and breeders involved in this breed. He says they have been blessed to have met so many wonderful people that are a special part of our Shorthorn family. Congrats to Cory!

Jeff spent most of his youth growing up west of Okeene, Oklahoma, with his parents and 2 brothers on a diversified wheat and livestock farm that included Shorthorn cattle, Hampshire Sheep, Hampshire and Duroc hogs. Jeff was an active member of the Okeene FFA where he received the State FFA Degree and was a finalist for the State Star in Production Agriculture.

Following High School, Jeff attended and graduated from Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College where he received an Associates degree in Animal Science and Ag Education. He then received a Bachelor’s degree in Agriculture Education from Oklahoma State University.

Jeff and Diane were married in 1984 and returned to Okeene to become a part of the Bedwell family farm. For the next 4 years, Bedwell Shorthorns exhibited extensively across the United States with Jeff also taking along custom-fit cattle from customers and Shorthorn friends. That period of Bedwell Shorthorns culminated with a herd reduction and Jeff accepting a position at NEO A&M College as an Agriculture and Biological Science Instructor as well as the Assistant Livestock Judging Coach working alongside Jary Douglas. Jary had been Jeff’s Livestock team coach while attending NEO and played a huge role in Jeff’s judging success while in college. In the time that Jary and Jeff worked as a team, they enjoyed coaching 3 National Champion Teams that included a multitude of National Contest wins.

While teaching and coaching at NEO, Jeff recognized that a different approach to the breeding program was paying off and that his father Jack was needing help with promotion of the herd once again. In 1994 Jeff and his family exhibited the Res. National Champion Female at the Ft Worth Stock Show on a female named JB Teri Star 303ET. She went on to become a mainstay in the Bedwell herd of which at one time over ½ the cow herd would carry the “Teri Star” name.

It became very apparent that a move closer to Okeene was in order. Jeff accepted positions with K 74 Herefords near Edmond and then Pig Improvement Company as Breeding Barn Manager near Okeene and since that time they have remained near Okeene and now Isabella area.

During those years of Jeff and Diane’s Marriage, they were blessed with 3 children. Jared Cody born in 1987, Justin Christopher in 1991, and Jennifer CarolAnne in 1995.

As Jared, Justin and Jennifer became old enough to show, they became members of 4-H and exhibited Shorthorn Cattle but also pigs and market lambs and later Jennifer exhibited market goats. Throughout, their 4-H and FFA careers, the kids exhibited mostly home-raised Shorthorn steers and heifers at all levels from the Local, County to the State and National Shows where they were blessed by many successful show adventures.

In 1998, Jeff became the Oklahoma Cooperative Extension Service, Agriculture Educator in Major County and remained there for 9 years before accepting the Ag Educator position in Garfield County where he served a total of 6 years. As an Ag Educator, Jeff was recognized with the Distinguished Service Award by the Oklahoma County Agents Association and the National Association of Agriculture County Agents. During his 15-year career as an OCES Ag Educator, Jeff was also recognized by the Oklahoma Wheat Growers Association with the “Wheat Improvement Award” and the

Oklahoma FFA Association with Honorary State FFA Degree.

The early 2000s were great years for the Bedwell’s. The annual Shorthorn 500 sale was begun with Double J Ranch and continued by the Freed and Crow families at the Brooks Sales facility in Marietta, Oklahoma until 2019. In 2004, the purchase of COR Fear Factor led to the Bedwell’s first National Champion Bull with Fear Factor being Slapped Champion at the North American in 2004. In 2006, the Bedwell’s exhibited RB Speedway also to the Res National Champion spot at the National Western.

In 2016 the Bedwell’s enjoyed even more success when Jennifer’s Heifer “Patsy”, aka CYT Magical Max Rosa ET, was congratulated as the Res. Champion at the National Western and then Champion at the Fort Worth Stock Show.

Since 2016 Jeff has served farmers and ranchers in the region as an Agronomist. First at Land Run Farmers Co-op in Waukomis and currently at Nutrien Ag Solutions in Fairview.

Throughout all the opportunities and changes that have occurred during Jeff’s professional career, raising their 3 children with his wife Diane went hand in hand with husbandry of raising Shorthorn Cattle near Okeene and Isabella.

As a Shorthorn Breeder, Jeff has been honored to have been invited and to have evaluated cattle at shows in the United States, Australia, and Canada. He has evaluated National shows not only for the Shorthorn Breed but also National level Junior and Open shows for the Hereford, Mini-Hereford, Simmental, Maine Anjou, Limousin, Brangus and Brahman breeds.

Jeff believes strongly in giving back to the county and community that have meant so much to the Bedwell family. Jeff is currently serving his 3rd term as a member of the Major County Fair board as well as serving Major County as a Trustee of the Public Facilities Authority.

It has been Jeff’s pleasure to serve as the Chairman for the American Shorthorn Association Show Committee Since 2018 and since the annual meeting last fall in 2021, he is very honored to serve as a Senior Board Member of the American Shorthorn Association.

In 2020, the Bedwell’s were approached by the Blankenship Family and the Aegerter Family about having an annual sale together. The result of those discussions is “The Lasting Impressions Sale” of which the most recent and most successful was just held at the Bedwell’s facility west of Isabella in late October.

With the success of the Lasting Impressions Sale and with demand for good Shorthorn genetics growing, Jeff and Diane have chosen to expand and diversify their genetic base by aggressively pursuing and purchasing females, bulls, embryos, and semen from some of the most esteemed shorthorn herds in the US. Since last fall purchases from Studer Shorthorns, Leveldale Shorthorns, Jungels Shorthorns, Byland Shorthorns, Waukaru Shorthorns, Paint Valley Shorthorns and the Bowman Family have begun to have their impact which brings new excitement to the future at the Bedwell’s.

Jeff Bedwell is a fourth-generation Shorthorn Breeder and a Second-generation recipient of the Builder of the Breed recognition proceeded by his father Jack Bedwell in 1985.

Embracing

As the 2022 season has come to an end, we all have the same thought come through our mind, what will our new year’s resolution be? Whether it be a resolution or a goal you have for yourself, it is important to have accountability and success markers along the way. I have asked some of our juniors from across the nation what their 2023 new year’s resolutions were, and they said:

“I would like to be in the top ten in showmanship and win a division at junior nationals this summer.” – Wyatt Smith, Texas

“My new year resolution is to get my livestock judging team to state even though only two of us have livestock and know the basics of livestock, but with helping my other teammates that want to learn and do good. I feel like with extra practice time we will be able to get to the level that we want to reach. And to also make it through the last few months of high school.” – Kylee Dameron, Missouri

“I would say my new year’s resolution would be working really hard to accomplish my goals for junior nationals and make it to showmanship finals.” –Maddie Berg, Iowa

“1. To be nicer to my sisters. 2. Spend more time with my loved ones. 3. Try and get the Shorthorn board to start up a 3-on-3 basketball tournament. 4. Spend more time doing community service in my hometown.” – Kesler Collins, Illinois

“I would like to meet my AR points at school and work harder to be a better showman.” – Kelby Worthington, Oklahoma

“My new year’s resolution is to win my very first belt buckle.” – Sam Parker

“My new year’s resolution is to be successful with my bred and owned heifers in the upcoming show season.” –Jace Parker, Oklahoma

I would like to thank each of these members for taking the time to send me their new year’s resolutions for the upcoming year. As the Public Relations Chair and on behalf of the rest of the AJSA board we would like to wish everyone good luck in the upcoming show season and hope to see everyone at Cattlemen Congress in January. We hope you have had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Shorthorn Show Honoree

Ashbourne Farms is the agricultural legacy of W.L. Lyons Brown and Sally [Shallenberger] Brown. It began in 1937 when Sally’s grandfather, Ashton Cokayne Shallenberger, the fifteenth governor of Nebraska, gifted the couple several Scotch Shorthorn cattle and a bull for their wedding.

By 1945, Lyons and his brother, George Garvin Brown II, became the country’s premier Shorthorn breeders. Lyons’ post World War II purchases helped Ashbourne Farms’ breeding program flourish. It was then he acquired his herd sire, Prince William 15th, from the 1946 International Congress sale. Following, in 1953, came the purchase of Drummondreach Advocate, supreme champion of the Perth, Scotland show and sale.

The commitment to investing in notable bulls, as well as rounding out the heard with heifers and cows to improve the breed, earned Ashbourne Farms notable respect in the Shorthorn family. For some twenty years, Shorthorn enthusiasts gathered at Ashbourne Farms as “The Browns of Kentucky” hosted their annual sale.

Lyons’ commitment to the breed expanded past the borders of the farm. An extension included the Brown-

Forman Experimental Farm, a partnership between Ashbourne Farms, George Garvin Brown’s farm Sutherland, and the University of Kentucky. The experimental farm was committed to research and development for improvement of the industry and was recognized for its support of 4-H and FFA programs. Lyons and his brother were recognized as “Builders of the Breed” along with Sutherland Farm Manager Jack Ragsdale, for whom the North American Shorthorn Show is permanently dedicated. Lyons also served on the board of directors and as President of the Shorthorn Association in the 1950s.

Following Lyons passing in 1973, his wife, Sally, took over the farm. She retained the 850 acres that she and Lyons had accumulated. In 1996, she placed that original acreage into a land trust to protect the land in perpetuity and preserve its natural beauty. At the time, this was the largest agricultural easement put in place in Kentucky.

Today, the farm is under the watchful stewardship of Lyons and

Sally’s grandson, Austin Musselman, and his wife Janie. As third generation owners, they have expanded Ashbourne Farms to more than 3,500 acres. It is listed on the National Park Services National Register of Historic Places.

Years of thoughtful care have gone in to restoring the property to the picturesque splendor of its heyday. On it stands a restored version of the original farmhouse, built in the late 1800’s. A small herd of Shorthorn cattle still grazes the pastures that surround the farm. The original sale barn has been restored and now serves as a world class event space. Its walls are adorned with photos that showcase the history that gave this farm its life.

From meager beginnings, the Browns built the farm from the ground up, suffusing the property with a deep love of agriculture and nature. This legacy is the foundation upon which the modern-day iteration of Ashbourne Farms flourishes.

Breeding Shorthorn cattle was an integral part of the Garvin Brown family of Sutherland Farms. In the 1950s, Garvin partnered with Jack Ragsdale and began the Sutherland herd. The creation of the best of the breed became the family goal. After Garvin’s death in 1968, his widow Trudi intensified the effort with Jack to develop the herd. Trudi came from many generations of farmers. When she moved to Kentucky, she fell in love with the sleek, kind-eyed Shorthorns. Trudi and Jack went to work with a defined mission: “to improve the breed”.

After Trudi’s death in 1983, her daughter Dace continued with Jack and David Ragsdale with the family mission.

Sutherland Farms retired the Paul W. Teegardin memorial trophy in 1973. This magnificent silver tray was given by Bud Peters in Mr. Teegardin’s memory.

Sutherland Crest was the first polled bull to ever win at the Chicago Show and the first to win the trophy, 1967. Sutherland Prospector won in 1969 and Waseka Nonee Bernard retired the trophy in 1973.

Our family has considered it the greatest honor to have the Sutherland name still recognized as one of America’s best breeders of Polled Shorthorn cattle.

A trophy is presented annually at the International Livestock Show to the Supreme Champion male or female Shorthorn. There is also a new trophy

presented to the Champion Purebred Female at the National Junior Shorthorn Show. It was presented for the first time this year

Congratulations to the well-deserving Ashbourne Farms & the Brown Family of Sutherland Farms on being the 2022 NAILE National Shorthorn Show Honoree! =

Lawrence Grathwohl Shorthorn Herdsman of the Year - Mitchell Smith

The Lawrence Grathwohl Herdsman of the Year is voted on by Shorthorn exhibitors that are at the North American International Livestock Expo Super National Shorthorn Show. This year the herdsman is Mitchell Smith from Pendleton, Indiana. Mitchell graduated from Purdue University in 2016 and was a member of the 2016 Purdue Livestock Judging Team. He was on the American Junior Shorthorn board of directors from 2014 to 2017 and served as the AJSA President from 2016 to 2017.

The Smith family began raising Shorthorn cattle in 2001 when Mitchell decided he wanted to exhibit beef cattle. They were already friends with the Trennepohl family who recommended they start with Shorthorn cattle. Mitchell owns and operates Smith Family Farms with his family, his wife, Courtney, and their new daughter, Wesley. They look forward to raising her in the family breed that helped Mitchell become who he is today!

“I think that since Mitchell has been back at the farm his dedication to forwarding their program alongside his work ethic and customer service has

been able to take their program to a new level in a very short amount of time,” said Tyler Cates.

Mitchell’s advice to anyone looking to get involved in the Shorthorn breed or cattle industry is to find people who offer the type of cattle you want to raise and will also offer help to teach you and help you grow. Getting involved early with good people is important. Mitchell said they owe a large thank you to the Trennepohl and Cates families for helping them get started and learn to get to where they are now.

The lessons and experiences gained in the AJSA have transitioned into raising exceptional cattle while giving back to the breed. Mitchell and his wife serve as advisors for the Indiana Junior Shorthorn Association. They help organize their large number of junior members into contest teams, stalling cattle, and more.

“It is such an honor to be recognized by a group of my peers and friends for being successful in this breed and industry,” Mitchell said.

The 2022 Lawrence Grathwohl Herdsman of the Year is Sponsored by the Shorthorn Foundation. Congratulations

Mitchell Smith receiving the Lawrence Grathwohl Shorthorn Herdsman of the Year Award at the 2022 NAILE.
