Dairy Beef Showmanship at the York State Fairgrounds.

Caption Text Below:    

00:00 - It's a lot of fun it's a lot of hard work i learned the value of a dollar at a

00:03 - very young kid

00:04 - five years old when i started doing this.

00:06 - My parents weren't farmers so was me and my brother started our cattle business

00:10 - and it's a lot of fun so i did my i didn't really grow up doing it

00:14 - because of my parents i grew up because it was my dream to be able to do this and

00:17 - i'm feeling it now.

00:31 - First step live showmanship

00:33 - that's how

00:34 - the handler can control the animal in the show ring

00:37 - make them look the most presentable.

00:39 - That that's the first

00:40 - the judge will go through all the age groups and judge from there

00:43 - and it'll pick a champion and grand champion

00:46 - and then

00:46 - after that we'll have our market glass where he's actually judging the animal

00:50 - and

00:50 - he's judging based on their market quality

00:53 - so he's looking for squareness and how they're

00:54 - going to finish out to go to be food on the table

00:57 - these are the male side of the dairy cows

00:58 - and their spheres of their cat aspirated males.

01:01 - So this is basically what you're eating when you go to a restaurant

01:05 - you'll be eating either dairy beep or Angus

01:07 - that that's how you get your steak usually this

01:09 - is what you're eating reading steered most likely.

01:12 - Cause they

01:13 - finish out the the fastest and the highest quality rather than a hammer

01:17 - or about a day old when we get them

01:18 - and then show from there on out we

01:21 - raise them up to about

01:22 - this guy here at about nine hundred pounds

01:24 - and so will raise an update of that and bring them to the show.

01:28 - Halter break them so they can walk and lead on the water

01:31 - and then

01:32 - work on our showmanship skills

01:34 - with the show's deck and everything setting their feet

01:36 - making them make sure the judge gets the best angle.

01:39 - I've been doing this for years years and i usually bring through to a show

01:43 - or read more at home for my customers to put food on their table

01:47 - and

01:47 - so i raise about

01:49 - five at home

01:49 - per year to bring the shows

01:51 - and then other night.

01:52 - Market cato just just.

01:59 - My senior year this year so i'm planning on just

02:02 - helping the younger kids as much as possible i want to go out and win my sears but

02:05 - it's not my highest priority i want to pass

02:07 - the knowledge i have

02:08 - and

02:09 - the business

02:10 - skills that i built from doing this

02:12 - to the younger generation so they can learn the

02:14 - value of the dollar the young kids do the same thing

02:16 - all the way up to that NASA that on the one

02:18 - near sr the bachelor and the younger kids.
