What a phenomenal show!!
Judge Jary Douglas said he had not had a chance to evaluate Lowline cattle for about 4 years and complimented the breed and the breeders on the huge improvement in quality and presentation. There were 290 head of Lowlines entered in the National Show, one of the 4 biggest breeds in Denver.
The quality ran deep in every class.

Bonanza's Boxcar 3Y
2012 National Calf Champion and
Reserve National Grand Champion Fullblood Lowline Bull
He might be the best Lowline bull we have ever owned.
Judge Jary Douglas said in his reasons "I can't find a hole in him"
and "He is the most complete bull we've seen." We had several
non-Lowline cattlemen say he was the best one they have ever seen.
He had a REA/CWT of 1.60 at 11 months and a %IMF of 4.12 having
never been fed any grain until a week before the show. |
