I know I haven’t posted an update for the 2024 show season. So here is a full recap of the show season. I had only went to 7 shows this summer.
Freedom fest
1st place fall horned Dorset ram lamb
Reserve champion horned Dorset ram.
5th with “ what’s her name” the horned Dorset yearling ewe
2 with “jumper” our fall ewe lamb. Overall I was pleased by that show.
Clay city fair open:
1st with the yearling for her class
1st with the ewe lamb for her class
I had won the senior showmanship class
I was second in the grand showmanship class. The ewe just started to act up.
So overall at the clay city show, I was very pleased with that show. Besides the storm that rolled through.
AAJSS
Second or third with the horned ram
I believe I was 6th with the horned yearling
I was second with the fall ewe lamb. She was just small and green
I had missed my showmanship class because we were the barn up on the hill all the way across the facility.
Vigo county fair
First with the horned ram lamb
First with the ewe lamb and also the yearling
I had won senior showmanship and then nearly won the grand showmanship.
I did not do the best in round robin though.
Youth sheep expo/Great Lakes regional junior sheep show
First place fall ram lamb
Reserve grand champion horned Dorset ram.
I was third in the horned yearling class.
Second with the fall ewe lamb, she was still small.
Indiana state fair 4-h
Third in showmanship with the yearling
6th with the horned yearling
2nd with the fall ewe
Indiana state fair open show
1st fall ram lamb
Third or fourth with the yearling
Third or fourth with the fall ewe
That wraps our show this season.
Good luck to everyone going to NAILE. I will not be showing this year. I also will not be showing at any of the bigger shows next year. Next summer I plan to focus on my bowling career. Good luck to everyone at NAILE and the 2025 show season.
