NEMO | It's not the showing. The part where the kids take responsibility and work is great. Our kids showed market animals and breeding stock both...I get it. They learned responsibility and how to work with others and how to make decisions. Breeding stock shows with cattle kinda loosely follow commercial cattle (if you really stretch it) and a lot of good cattle breeders would argue that. With hogs breeding stock shows are practically gone, and are in no way related to modern day hog production. The show world is it's own little deal, with a lot of really innocent people that get sucked in. Some of them come in to it with lots of money (which they freely spend) and others don't have the money, and spend a lot pointlessly chasing everybody around pipe dreaming that their next animal will be the big winner. The tricks the pro's play can be sickening, been there, not guessing. I know where your coming from, and can see your side of it....we can agree to disagree | |
