Louisiana State Fair Results

We had a super trip to Louisiana State Fair.  I saw a bull from Atlas Polled Herefords while at the State Fair of Texas.  He was quite impressive and was sired by Catapult.  He was deep, wide, and very cool to watch.  I approached Jimmy and Claudia about him and was even more impressed to find out that he weighed 61 lbs at birth.  So I was quick to call and discuss options with Dad.  He agreed that this would be a nice addition to the herd.  So I made arrangements with Jimmy and Claudia.  He was already entered in the State Fair of Louisiana so I suggested that we show him and the we take him home from there.

Upon arrival in Louisiana, he was the talk of the barn.  He is impressive and just a calf.  He is sired by Catapult and out of a Shock and Awe Daughter. 

He is impressive.  We were excited when he was slapped Champion Bull of the Show.  Pretty Cool.



Boaz and Junie B had another great day.  They stood first in class and then division champion.  Boaz is doing a great job showing and working.  Junie B thinks it's pretty cool too.

 


Zella had a blast too and is a hard worker.  She will make an excellent showman. Okay showperson.



Catching Up from 2014

Boaz and Zella worked very hard this year to acquire disciplines in showmanship.

Here they are in the summer when it was really hot.  Every time Boaz would start working Junie B, he would get super hot and would have to wipe the sweat off his brow.  LOL

                                                                                           
Then it was time to prepare for the East Texas State Fair.

W5 Total Pursuit 503D was slapped Reserve Champion Bull. 
        

Boaz also had a great day.  He and Junie B were Intermediate Division Champions.
