THE BIGGER THE JOB, THE MORE YOU NEED BIG RED
THE HARDEST
WORKERYOU’LL EVER HIRE.
BIG ON SAFETY. BIG ON FEATURES. Honda’s BIG RED. Big Red® offers a proven Honda engine, automotive-style Honda Automatic Transmission
with hydraulic torque converter, and independent suspension front and rear. Mounting
the engine with the crankshaft front-to-back means fewer right-angle power changes,
and that means more power actually gets to the ground. And there are plenty of other
refi nements, like Big Red’s contoured, two-passenger bench-style seat, generous
1000-pound cargo bed and 1500-pound towing capacity, and Maxxis Big Horn tires. And
Big Red offers a whole host of industry-leading safety features too, like an integrated
Occupant Protective Structure, dual-circuit brake system, standard safety nets and door
latches, and much more. Honda’s Big Red. Built to Work.

“‘An American Story’ is meant to pay respect to the patriotism and hard work of the families of
agriculture. Historically, the backbone of America
has been its farmers and ranchers and this painting attempts to
combine those attributes. My way, as an artist, to say thank you.”

If it was fiction, the story of CK Cattle at Highmore and Wager Cattle at Gettysburg, SD, might be difficult to believe. But what
seems too good to be true – to by some chance acquire one of the highest quality and most productive females in today’s beef industry – is exactly what happened to the Effling and Wager families.
Melody, their now 10-year-old Simmental purebred female, just surpassed the $1 million mark for direct sales of progeny. Her daughters and sons have gone on to win livestock show
awards across the nation and more importantly produce high-quality progeny that have had an impact on the beef cattle industry for the past eight years.
Chris and Kristi Effling and their daughters Cagney, Chesney and Kenidey operate CK Cattle at Highmore, SD, where most of the family’s bulls are developed. Kristi’s parents, Jayne and Lanny Wager, and her brother Dusty operate their commercial cow-calf and seed stock operation at Gettysburg, SD.

Chris explains that he and Kristi began their ranch in a small way more than 10 years ago.
“Lanny and Jayne had been running Simmental-cross for a number of years and Kristi and I liked those genetics,” Chris said. “We decided to use some of their females for club calves and that was very successful. The more we worked with Simmental genetics on the commercial side the more we liked the results.”
The heterosis which Simmental-cross brings has been proven in research
trials to result in 25 percent more life-time production and 1.5 years greater longevity per commercial female than the Simmental’s purebred counterparts. More than any other breed combina-tions, Continental x British crossbred cattle have also been proven to bring greater profit to cow-calf operations, cattle feeders and packers year in and year out.
Simmental is the highest ranking Continental beef breed in the US for di-rect calving ease, maternal calving ease, puberty, weaning weight, post weaning gain, percent of Choice, tenderness and most measures of feed efficiency (US MARC Research Center Report #22).
It was at the 2004 Black Hills Stock Show® that Lanny saw Melody, who was owned by Three-C Simmentals. Lanny didn’t have any plan to produce pure-bred Simmentals at the time. He just felt the impulse to bid on Melody.
“I was at a different sale and neither Lanny nor I realized that we were both bidding on Melody that day,” Chris re-members. “Later Lanny told me he re-ally didn’t think he’d get her bought but he did. He paid $3,975 for her that day. That started it all.”
After acquiring Melody, Lanny and Chris began to realize the potential the outstanding female had for producing both prize winning and highly functional progeny.
“Melody is very unique,” Chris said. “She is out of one of the very best cow families on the Three-C Ranch. She has great feet, sound legs and a wonderful disposition. She also has great eye ap-peal. She’s 10 now, but she looks half that age. What we didn’t know at the beginning was how productive Melody would be. Her grandmother lived to be

17 and the last I knew her mother was 18 and still functioning.”
Once they had assessed Melody’s potential for success, Chris and Lanny began purchasing other prize-winning Simmental females to start building their purebred business. They began flushing Melody to mass produce the same kind of quality she exhibited.
While the Efflings and Wagers ac-quired some high-quality Simmental genetics, Melody just kept shining by producing outstanding progeny.
“Melody’s first calf was a heifer and we kept her,” Chris said. “Dream Catcher was her first bull calf. He proved himself to be the most consistent sire of elite Simmental cattle in the country. Dream Catcher wasn’t promoted in the show ring or with expensive semen. He was made available to real world cattle-men and used on cows and heifers of all quality levels and breed types. With this use he showed himself to be a true cow changer and quality improver. He is de-ceased now but his semen is still avail-able to breeders.”
Dream Catcher possessed the easy-calving trait so many modern beef pro-ducers appreciate. His female progeny emulated the easy-going disposition and other highly desirable traits found in their sire. Breeders who used him and those with a partnership share in Dream
Catcher were pleased with his overall performance.
“Dream Catcher was a very popular sire in his prime,” Chris said.
Driver is another sire out of Melody that is proving to pass on the high-qual-ity genetics that have made Melody such a valuable element for the Efflings and Wagers. His progeny have garnered top awards at livestock shows across the na-tion. As he was used in different herds it became very apparent that he not only
passed on performance sire traits but highly desirable carcass traits too.
“Driver’s female progeny have won championships at the American Royal show in Kansas City,” Chris continued. “He is a solid black, five-year-old son of Melody. We sold him as a yearling at the Black Hills Stock Show®. Once produc-ers saw how productive his calves were, he was syndicated.
“Kristi and I have modeled the same approach to our beef production as her parents have for all these years,” Chris said. “We want sound, highly functional cattle that work for us and for our cus-tomers. That’s what we’ve found in Melody and her progeny. The great disposition carries through. Melody’s

daughters have proven to be highly func-tional. They have great udders and many of the cattle that trace back to Melody end up in the show ring. When Driver was mated to a recent Black Hills Stock Show® champion Black Angus female those progeny went on to win top awards at both Kansas City and Fort Worth.”
In addition to the longevity and highly reproductive traits of Melody and her progeny are the high marbling traits seen in Dream Catcher’s progeny. It has taken time, but the Efflings and Wagers are very pleased to see the high-quality carcass traits that are also showing up in Melody’s progeny.
All family members bring their strengths to the ranching business. Kristi and Chris’ daughters have shown some of the family’s livestock, bringing home numerous awards. All breeding activi-ties take place at the Wagers' Gettysburg ranch. A September private treaty pas-ture sale and all other shows and sales are held at the Highmore ranch. Their cattle business is truly a family affair with the Wagers' wintering cow-calf pairs. In summer, when purebred sales work slows down for Chris, he assists with AI activities and marketing.
While the Efflings and Wagers ap-preciate the many awards their animals capture, their primary focus is still on functionality and customer satisfaction. They search for cattle with “good cow families” to continue to optimize their genetic pool. Chris notes that theirs is truly a “good luck”story.

“I guarantee you that anyone in the beef industry would say that it’s better to be lucky than to be good,” Chris said. “We always try to pool our resources and knowledge and use the information we have to make the best decisions. We try to find cattle that we think will give us the production we’re looking for, but it doesn’t always happen that way.
“Whenever we go to display our cattle we’re not focused on winning,” Chris added. “The most important thing to us it to have an opportunity to see our cattle matched against fel-low producers so we can see what kind of production success we’re having. We appreciate feedback from other producers who help us recognize both the things they like and things they don’t like about our cattle. It gives us a great opportunity to expand and try to make our livestock even better. Buyers have a variety of ideas about what meets their needs. We re-main focused on producing cattle that work in our customers’ environment.”
“We want sound, highly functional cattle
that work for us and for our customers.”

Cowboy boots have long captured the imagination and attention of American hearts and minds, serving not only as necessary foot protection but as objects of art, poetry and remarkable ingenuity.
Cowboy
By LorettA SorenSen
It was after the Civil War, when “cowboys” found themselves driving cattle along dusty trails for long hours every day that the need for a new boot design began to grow. The pointy toe of cowboy boots makes it easier to slip the boot into a stirrup. The taller boot shaft protects
legs from brush and brambles and splashing across creeks and rivers. The high boot design also protected legs from snake bites and things such as mesquite tree thorns.
The tough leather used to make boots pro-tected cowboys’ ankles from potential bruising

Boots
by wooden stirrups and from rubbing against stirrup leathers. The boots were stitched on the outside to keep leather from buckling and even-tually rubbing against the wearer’s leg.
High heels on boots made it possible for cow-boys to dig in if a stubborn mule pulled.
“Superlatives” is the term used by Lawrence, KS, author Barbara Brackman to convey how boot makers described their footwear in some of the country’s earliest advertisements.
“In the midst of the recent enthusiasm for writing a new history of the American West, it is surprising that the prevailing view of boot history focuses on two men,” Brackman writes (Legend Posing as History). “A study of their company histories, however, readily reveals the sources for these origin myths. Neither the Hyer Boot Company nor the Justin Boot Com-pany actually claimed the invention of the boot, but company advertising has required careful reading (to ascertain) the truth.”
40 Black hills stock show & rodeo® 2013 a publication of tri-state livestock news
In their ads, Hyer and Justin claimed to produce the “best” boot and operate the biggest and oldest cowboy boot fac-tory. Both set their founding dates about five years ahead of the true date to beef up their history. Throughout the years, journalists have polished romantic myths surrounding boot makers. In the 1936 Texas Centennial a biographical sketch of Herman Joseph (Joe) Justin read:
“It was in 1887 that Mr. Justin estab-lished a small shop for the manufacture of cowboy boots in Nocona ... Mr. Jus-tin located first at Spanish Fort where he opened a small repair shop. As soon as he had acquired capital sufficient for the purchase of a small supply of fine leather, Mr. Justin made a pair of boots. He sold these immediately and with the proceeds purchased more leather. From this small beginning grew one of
the largest enterprises of its kind in all the world and the fame of Justin boots in many foreign countries.”
Because both Justin and Hyer opened their boot shops late in the
era of cattle drives, it’s clear that they didn’t invent the cowboy boot nor en-tirely supply all the boots sold during
their era. A study of history reveals that no one shoe maker can be credited with inventing the boot. The basic appear-ance and structure of cowboy boots was derived from the fashionable English Wellington and Hessian boots, which began appearing around 1810.
Early cowboy boot designs, according to historic documentation and photo-graphic records, were simple. The high heel, below-the-knee cut and side seams on legs were pretty standard. Other common elements were pull straps, dec-orative stitching on legs, and toe-shapes varying from round to square.
Cowboy boot designs varied in dif-ferent parts of the United States. Dif-ferences grew out of the variations in leggings, stirrup design and ethnic background.
The f irst boot makers
produced only custom-made boots. Feet were measured and the boot maker
went to work.
a publication of tri-state livestock news Black hills stock show & rodeo® 2013 41
“Spanish-influenced American horse-men were often pictured and described as wearing flat-heeled boots, shoes or moccasins,” Brackman wrote. “With their footwear, Californios, vaqueros, and other descendants of Spain through-out the Americas sometimes wore soft leggings over their pants. Absence of pictures or descriptions of sturdy-legged riding boots is explained by analysis of their riding style, which called for a com-bination stirrup and leg protection (los tapaderos) that hung from their saddles. A horseman using tapaderos required neither a high heel boot to keep his foot in the stirrup nor a stiff boot to protect his leg from brush on the trail.”
More than 100 years ago, in the early 1900s, modern day boot designs began emerging, beginning with red Moroccan trim on black boots and shades of brown

boot options. Variations in leg heights, from peewee boots on up, also were available. By 1921, companies like Lucchese (1884) heightened boot sale competition.
The first boot makers produced only custom-made boots. Feet were measured and the boot maker went to work. Modern day custom boot maker Mark Schumacher at Wolsey, SD, says custom made boots fit like no other footwear can.
“When you make boots, they’re made to fit in a static situation,” Schumacher says. “A good fitted boot should feel pretty comfortable when it’s finished. When you walk in a custom made boot the leather has a memory. Within a couple of weeks, after you’ve walked in the boots, that leather is going to shape itself even more to your foot.”

Modern day cowboys seek out the skills of boot makers like Schumacher partly because they want a quality boot that will stand up under daily wear.
“I’ve had customers who wore the boots I made for them for as long as 15 years,” Schumacher says. “When they come in they select the color, type and style of boot. If you’re wearing boots every day and need good foot protection, custom made boots are worth the investment.”
Cowboy boots can be either welted or cemented when they’re made. When the upper part of the boot and sole are stitched together, they’re said to be welted. If the boot is glued together it’s a cemented boot. Both types are durable.

than a practical tool.

For manufactured boots, animals skin uppers are cut, treated, split as necessary and sent to a pre-fitting department where the boots are partly assembled. At some point, each pair of boots goes to a design department where computerized equipment completes intricate stitching designs that give each pair of boots a distinctive style and pattern. Because machines
do most of the work, manufactured cowboy boots are cheaper
than custom made boots.
On the inside, boots consist of an insole, shank (heel), cush-
ion insert and outsole. Many boots these days are more of a
fashion statement than practical tool. For 2012, fashion design-
ers are using a “cleaner, sexier” version of the classic cowboy
boot to bring a new kind of footwear to the market. Unique
patterns and colorful hues are making today’s boots a “chic
modern trend,” pairing them with dresses, leggings and other
trendy looks.
It’s been said that there’s a romantic aura surrounding cow-
boy boots. Those using the footwear for practical purposes may
struggle to recognize that. Whether the intent is to protect or
impress, cowboy boots are still capturing the hearts and minds
of Americans.
Four-year-old Cadence Hofer is a picture of how modern day boots are paired with colorful outfits to express individual style.

4-H clubs across America are bringing youth to ag-related activi-ties such as the Black Hills Stock Show®. Service-learning is becom-ing a popular means for teaching youth life skills in every walk of life. Through 4-H activities, youth in the United States are finding more and more service-learning opportunities.
The Black Hills Stock Show® offers a full day of youth activities, including numerous 4-H events that allow youth to have fun while they learn about livestock, beef products, animal husbandry and many other aspects of livestock production.
The service-learning tech-niques at the heart of the national 4-H organization can be traced back as far as Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Inde-pendence and third President of the United States.
John Dewey (1859-1952) spearheaded educational reform during his life and introduced the ideas of experiential learning and reflective learning, both of which are key components of service learning.
Recent studies of 4-H techniques, leaders and participants have confirmed that 4-H activi-ties provide opportunity for youth to become involved in commu-nity service, learn dependability, responsibility and commitment as well as develop citizenship skills and civic responsibility.
In the Black Hills Stock Show® Beef Cook Off, youth will dem-onstrate their understanding of the qualities of beef and share their creativity in developing a recipe to provide a pleasurable eating
experience. All these skills can be used to help potential beef pro-ducers strengthen both production and marketing strategies as they raise beef.
Today’s beef producers need as many animal husbandry skills as they can gain in order to remain competitive in the market and pro-
duce a quality product. In livestock judging and Livestockolgy activities, youth at the Black
Hills Stock Show® will be able to demon-strate their skill in both areas and gain
increased knowledge of different types of livestock through their experience.
4-H youth who desire to learn 10 good production practices of
raising pigs have an opportunity to learn the practices and complete
a one-year certification train-ing program sponsored by the national Pork Checkoff. The mission of the program is to “demonstrate the dedication of
America’s youth pork producers and their Advisors to assuring cus-
tomers that they are purchasing pork that is safe, of high quality and produced in a responsible manner.”
Through these and other activities, 4-H members learn teamwork and how to collabo-
rate with others, develop leadership and teaching skills, understand the principles of managing a group and build a sense of community. Youth also learn how to break down social barriers to unite with those sharing their goals and achieve those goals, make a difference in their life and the lives of others and have fun while they’re learning!
4-H Youth ActivitiesBy LorettA SorenSen
Event Highlights
Attracting youth to the agriculture industry is key to sustaining a vibrant, competitive ag industry in the United States. Involving youth at an early age in ag-related activities that assist them in identifying their interests and skill areas is key to attracting youth to the jobs that will support and continue to develop agriculture in this country.

If you’re enjoying the Dakota Territory Buffalo Association (DTBA) sale you can thank a
volley of volunteers who help make it possible each year.
The Black Hills Buffalo Classic Show and Sale (BHBC) is a huge event for the DTBA. Show and Sale Chairman, Zane Holcomb, recruits volunteers to assist with the buffalo each year. Volunteers are on hand to help unload and pen animals. Some extra hands are also needed to water and feed the animals throughout the course of the sale. Over the weekend, a core crew helps with daily feed-ing, watering and moving of animals while the judges complete their evaluations. On sale day, Sunday, volunteers help sort and
pen the animals throughout the day and until loadout is completed for the day. It generally takes a couple of people the following Mon-day to help finish with loadout.
Based in Rapid City, SD, the heart of buf-falo country, the Dakota Territory Buffalo Association (DTBA) was formed in 1996 by a group of buffalo producers from a 12-state area and two Canadian provinces.
The DTBA was formed to promote and educate the public about the growing buffalo industry. Over the years, DTBA has grown to become a leading regional buffalo organiza-tion. The slogan used by the DTBA is “The Producer’s Association” to reflect the fact that the association belongs to, and works for, producers who make up the membership.
One unique feature of the association is that it does go beyond state boundaries and includes an ever-widening region. While many state and regional buffalo organizations are focused mainly in one state, DTBA has managed to not limit itself to being a South Dakota organization. Members come from across the country and Canada.
DTBA holds its annual Winter Confer-ence every January in Rapid City, SD. In conjunction with the event, the group also hosts the Black Hills Buffalo Classic Show and Sale. This event has grown to be a very popular one with producers and continues to bring in top quality animals from around the country.
In addition to the live animal show and sale, DTBA has become a leader in gathering data about meat animals. The Reality Based Carcass Class debuted in 2001 and at this time, includes both bulls and heifers, with the inclusion of the heifers being an industry first. Much data has been gathered through this class and the organization continues to forge ahead, constantly striving to find new information to help producers feed and mar-ket animals in the most desirable manner.
The group also hosts education seminars, ranch tours and summer meetings. Addition-ally, with the industry focus concentrated on buffalo meat, DTBA has stepped up their meat promotional activities and regularly participates in agricultural trade shows as a way of educating and informing the pub-lic while promoting the organization and its membership.
Nine states and seven other regional or national associations also promote and sup-port development of the buffalo industry.
Additional information about buffalo meat and buffalo in South Dakota can be found at www.dakotabuffalo.com.

The Bohringer Ingelheim Commercial Heifer Show and Sale is part of the day’s events. The competition has been designed for area commercial cattlemen and provides an opportunity for producers to showcase their best heifer(s). Five head of commercial replacement heifers in three different categories will be judged for the merits of structural correctness, uniformity and confirmation. A panel of three judges will have two minutes to evaluate each animal.
All heifers in the competition are commercial cattle representing all breeds and cross breeds of cattle. The show rules require that cat-tle are not washed or fitted. Pens are divided by light weight, medium weight and heavy weight divisions. A total of $3,000 worth of prize money is awarded to top finishers. Immediately following the show, all cattle are sold at auction.
Today’s commercial cattle business has its roots in the cattle in-dustry that saw tremendous growth in the two decades after the Civil War. Beef production moved into western Kansas and Nebraska, Col-orado, Wyoming, Montana, and the Dakotas in the 1870s and 1880s, following the expansion of railroads in those areas. Motion pictures, television, and novels have helped make heroes and well-known sym-bols of the “cowboys.” Cattle ranching and cow-calf production is a long-time, big business that has and continues to attract foreign in-vestment and requires a wide array of skills and tasks.
Sponsor of the competition, Boehringer Ingelheim, is a global group of companies embracing many cultures and diverse societies. The Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica vision is simple, Value Through Innovation. Each day the company works toward their vision by in-vesting in the research and development of new products and im-proving existing ones, providing ongoing training and educational opportunities to employees, hiring the best and brightest minds in animal health and understanding customer needs.
Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc. (BIVI), is the U.S. animal health division of Boehringer Ingelheim Corporation, a family-owned company founded in 1885 in Ingelheim, Germany. Boehringer Ingel-heim Corporation is an international corporation of 18 operative sub-sidiaries and four representative offices as well as local distributors in more than 50 countries around the globe. With its own research, pro-duction and distribution facilities, the Boehringer Ingelheim Corpo-ration ranks among the top 20 pharmaceutical companies worldwide.
Over the past 25 years, BIVI has supported its growth through research and development of innovative products for the livestock, equine and companion animal markets. Innovation and research are the keys to BIVI success. Dedicated to improving the lives and well-being of animals, BIVI continues to seek ways to further research and develop optimum solutions for the animal health industry.

The northern plains are known for having good horses, so it’s no surprise that the Black Hills
Stock Show® Horse Sale is such an out-standing sale. Held during the Black Hills Stock Show’s® opening weekend, it features a top set of horses, screened and selected by a committee.
The dates for the 2013 sale are Friday, Jan. 25, and Saturday, Jan. 26. The sale has a record 178 horses consigned, with horses ready to haul in roping, working cow horse, barrels, cutting and ranch work. Prospects for many events, plus quality ponies, show
horses, youth horses, stallion prospects and proven stallions round out the lineup.
A jackpot team roping featuring the con-signed horses starts the preview off at 7 a.m. on Friday and runs until 9 a.m. at the James Kjerstad Event Center at the Central States Fairgrounds, Rapid City, SD.
A unique aspect of the sale is the Ranch Horse Select Gelding competition that is held on Friday, Jan. 25, at 9-10 a.m. fea-turing horses that were designated for the competition on the consignment sheet. The competitors don’t know ahead of time what will be asked of the horses, so it’s a genuine showcase of the versatility and ability of the horses. The winner is the first horse to sell at
the Friday sale, with the reserve horse sec-ond and the other 14 competitors after that.
The remainder of the sale horses will be previewed at 10 a.m. with the horse sale be-ginning at 2 p.m. at the Civic Center’s Rush-more Hall, offering lots 1-85 in the catalog.
On Saturday, Jan. 26, the preview will be held again for the lot 86-178 horses, from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the fairgrounds. The sale is also at 2 p.m. on Saturday at the Civic Center.
Horse Event Coordinator, Jill Swanhorst, is excited about the horse sale lineup, “We have horses from 12 states and provinces coming to the sale, with a lot of quality of-

fered. There’s just a huge variety of horses this year - something for everyone.”
Buyers are encouraged to come early to the previews and really get a good look at the horses they are interested in and talk to the con-signors. With such a deep well of quality and variety, there is a horse there for nearly anyone at the standing room only sale.
stallion rowThe Black Hills Stock Show’s® Stallion Row is a showcase of the
superb stallions and breeding programs in the region. It runs from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, Jan. 25-26 at the Civic Cen-ter Rushmore Hall. The 2013 lineup is all Quarter Horses this year, but with horses from every discipline of the breed. Jill Swanhorst says, “There will be the new and up and coming stallions, plus the horses that are established in programs. We have more running bred horses this year, plus rope horses, cowhorses and cutters. It’s a pretty excit-ing group that will be here, kind of a who‘s who of the horse world.”
The Stallion Row gives the owners the opportunity to show off their stallions, meet new customers, showcase their breeding pro-grams and book breedings to their horses. Most offer BHSS discounts for breedings booked that weekend.
The 24 stallions are coming from South Dakota, Nebraska, Wyo-ming and North Dakota and will be previewed in the sale ring at 1:30 each day, prior to the horse sale.

It’s an annual thing:saddlemaker donates saddle to cattle industry organizationBy Jan Swan wood • photoS By Jean Laughton
R-CALF USA and the South Dakota Stockgrowers Association will once again share a booth at the Black Hills Stock Show®, in their usual spot, meeting and greeting new and old friends. Both organizations represent the cattle
producer at the grass roots level, with the SDSGA focusing mostly on the state level and R-CALF USA focusing on national issues. Also in the stock show booth will be a beautiful, custom saddle that will be raffled off to benefit R-CALF USA.
As part of the fundraiser efforts to sup-port the works of R-CALF USA, saddle maker Baxter Badure of Belvidere, SD, will once again build the saddle for the raffle. The saddle will be the 17th saddle that Badure has created for R-CALF USA fundraisers over the years. The first saddle he made for
the R-CALF USA raffle was in 1999, the first year that R-CALF USA had a booth at the Black Hills Stock Show®.
In 2012, Badure made a saddle honoring the memory of Johnny Smith, well known Ft. Pierre, SD, cattleman and R-CALF USA di-
badure carved the image of the late Johnny smith on this saddle in two locations. He generously donated the saddle to the casey tibbs south dakota rodeo center.

rector. The saddle, with a near-photograph quality likeness of Smith carved on the cantle, was raffled with the winner getting a saddle of their choice from Badure, while the Johnny Smith saddle was donated to the Casey Tibbs South Dakota Rodeo Center at Ft. Pierre for display.
Kenny Fox, also of Belvidere, SD, is an active member and volunteer for R-CALF USA. He said, “The raffle saddles have raised a tremendous amount of money for the orga-nization over the years. Each year the raffle brings in twenty to thirty thousand dollars for R-CALF USA. It’s been a huge help.”
Fox continued, “R-CALF USA only has three employees. All the money raised goes to work on the issues that benefit the produc-ers. All the other people in R-CALF USA are volunteers. The money raised from the raffle and the rollover auctions held at sale barns goes right to work for the cattlemen.”
“The booth will be at the same location it always is. People can come by and join R-CALF USA, renew their membership, buy a raffle ticket, have a cup of coffee, a handful of peanuts and visit. We look forward to the stock show every year and the time spent in the booth. It’s always good to see the friends that come by,” Fox said.
The unique, well built saddle is worth the time to go and look at, and certainly worth buying a raffle ticket for.

Running full out, eyes riveted on the sheep, the border collie makes a wide circle around the
arena and drops to the ground on its handler’s command. The sheep stand in a tight group, staring at the dog, unsure of which way to turn. The dog stands and starts toward them in a semi-crouched position and the sheep move away from it, then negotiate a series of maneuvers through a set course in a short amount of time. The last action has the sheep entering a small pen at one end of the arena while the handler holds a gate. When the gate is closed, the sheep are penned, and the time is called. The dog, panting, wags its tail and approaches the handler, proud of itself for doing its job.
If this sounds interesting to you, then the Black Hills Stock Show® Sheep Dog Trial is the place to be on Thursday, Jan. 31. Held for the first time this year at the James Kjer-stad Event Center at the Central States Fair-grounds, this fan favorite of the Black Hills Stock Show® will start at 1 p.m.
The preliminary round, open to anyone with a sheep dog, will feature 60-65 dogs, consisting mostly of border collies, compet-ing for over $5,000 in prize money. When the preliminary round is finished, 16 dogs will move on to the semi-finals, based on their
times in the first round. The 10 fastest times in the semi-finals will move on to the finals.
While the scores are being added for the finals round, the Mutton Busting will be held for kids 5-8 years old, with a limit of 20 rid-

Sheep Dog Trial and Mutton BustingBy Jan Swan wood

ers. After the mutton busting is complete, the final round of the sheep dog trial will begin.
The dogs and their handlers work in unison, with the dogs taking commands, either whistle or voice, and working the sheep without physical aid from the handler. A timed event, the dogs must work the sheep in the quickest fashion without ever biting or roughing the sheep. There is a four minute time limit per run.
Sheep dog handlers in the past have come from Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Texas and Canada to compete at the Black Hills Stock Show® Sheep Dog Trial, so the competition is stiff, the action dynamic and fast paced. With the $5,000 purse, plus a fast chute time prize of $300, the money is a big draw for handlers. The winner of the trial will get a Maynard buckle with the runner up getting a plaque.
Duane Hofer, chairman of the sheep dog trial committee, says “We’ll be using the same course as before, but with the bigger arena at the event center, will have to modify it somewhat to keep the time needed for a run the same as before.”
“We have kept this trial unsanctioned so that the local dog handlers can get in and compete. We’ve had handlers come in from out of state that have been competing in the sanctioned trials and they think they might come in and win that nice purse, but they find out that these local folks have good dogs and are hard to beat,” says Hofer. “It’s open to the world and we want to keep it that way.”

An event that is fun for the whole fam-ily and that also helps to instill good sportsmanship and competition for
young people, The Black Hills Stock Show® World’s Smallest Rodeo takes place at the Crystalyx Sales Ring on Saturday, Jan. 26.
The Black Hills Stock Show® World’s Smallest Rodeo has an age limit spanning ages 3 to 6. There are no large prizes to be won, but contestants will be provided a stick horse to participate in barrel racing, pole bending and a stick-horse wild horse wild ride. All participants are able to take their stick horse home with them after the event.
The Black Hills Stock Show® World’s Smallest Rodeo is limited to 75 participants. Pre-registration is required. Prizes will be awarded during the event and the awards include Cutest Cowboy and Cowgirl as well as Best Dressed.
Rodeo events like this provide many benefits to par-ticipants, including helping keep western heritage alive. Even at this young age, rodeo contestants learn how to develop a healthy competitive approach to the event while they help encourage and support one another dur-ing competition.
Youth rodeo activities have been designed to encour-age the highest standard of conduct and sportsmanship in various competitions by setting conduct and sportsman-ship goals contestants can strive to attain each year. Get-ting youth involved in rodeo activities helps ensure that the traditions of rodeo and related functions continue well into the future.
It’s interesting that youth rodeo activities enjoy strong support in a world of high technology. Robert Jackson recently released his book-length review of youth and rodeo in “The Young and the Rodeo,” “...the tale of a journey that took me into the world of rodeo through the

eyes and experience of the next generation of rodeo superstars, cowboys and cowgirls,” he wrote. Jackson’s book contains personal high-lights and individual stories that help explain why rodeo continues to thrive in a world of video games and smart phones.
A youth rodeo event like this gives young children an opportunity to experience rodeo competition and prepare to become ac-tive in organizations like the American Ju-nior Rodeo Association. Many rodeo greats started by being active in the AJRA. That lists includes Tuff Hedeman, Becky Jo Smith and Casey Tibbs.
AJRA was created around 1952 by Alvin G. Davis who was from Brownfield, TX. Organi-zations like the AJRA promote an environment where good sportsmanship and horsemanship are the core values to a healthy competitive event for young cowboys and cowgirls. As the youth explore their interests and develop skills necessary to successfully compete, they also learn about humane treatment of animals and building relationships with people both within the organization they represent as well as those involved in the rodeo activity.
The AJRA makes scholarships available for members every year. Participants are also eligible for large prizes, including a 2012 Dodge Truck that was won in 2012 by Emma Klaire Kent from Smyer, TX. Emma was named winner of the NFR 8 and Under All-Around title.

Capturing the authentic nature of cow-boys and their surroundings is something that intrigues the hearts and minds of people all over the world. Western art has always been created in a wide variety of forms. Back in the 1920s a famous western artist by the name of Charles M. Russell discovered this and soon was able to make a living with paintings and sculptures he created from images he himself had lived in working as a cowboy in Montana.
Family lore tells that Russell exhibited a talent for creating art when he was very young. He was drawing pictures and model-ing in wax well before his teens. At age 16, his parents entrusted his care to a Montana sheepherder. When Russell reached the age where he could strike out on his own he found work as a cowboy in the then-booming Montana ranch industry.
Watching cattle on the range, Russell had lots of time to sketch various scenes he en-countered. Friends said he was also known to carry modeling clay with him to sculpt vari-ous scenes.
Russell may never have come to fame if he hadn’t met Mary Cooper. Mary – who later became his wife – guided Russell to-ward a career as an artist. He soon found out many wealthy residents on the East Coast were very interested in depictions of the dis-appearing American frontier. By 1920, Rus-sell began making frequent trips to places
such as New York City to paint pictures for several supporters.
Russell had no formal art training and never took an interest in learning the tech-nical aesthetics of art. Critics ignored or derided his work but the public loved it. Ini-tially, Russell documented his early life as a cowboy. Later he began depicting American Indians scenes and historical figures.
Support for Western art is still strong through various organizations such as the Cowboy Artists of America. Accomplished artists Charlie Dye, John Hampton, and Joe Beeler founded this organization in 1964 to perpetuate the memory and culture of artists such as Russell, Fredric Remington and others.

One very popular event at the Black Hills Stock Show®, the Pioneer Bank and Trust Saddle Bronc Match
will be Wednesday, Jan. 30, from 7-10 p.m. at the James Kjerstad Event Center at the Cen-tral States Fairgrounds.
With 30 of the top saddle bronc riders in the world going up against some of the rankest saddle bronc horses, it’s an event that would be hard to top anywhere. Included in the lineup of bronc riders will be 14 WNFR qualifiers, four World Champions with five titles, two CNFR (Canadian National Finals Rodeo) Champions and two INFR (Indian National Finals Rodeo) champions.
Many of the bronc riders will be fresh off of a trip to the 2012 WNFR, plus some of top local hands will be there. The broncs will come from four of the top stock contractors in the business: Burch Rodeos, Rozet, WY; Burns Rodeo Com-pany, Laramie, WY; J Bar J Rodeo, Circle, MT; and Powder River Rodeo, Riverton, WY. Pickup men will be Tyler Robertson, Hermosa, SD; Shane Porch, Wanblee, SD; and Kirk Schuelke, Faith, SD.
The match will have a lucrative payoff for the winners with $10,000 added prize money offered to the bronc riders, plus, the four contractors will win additional prize money if their team of 10 broncs score the highest average points for the event. The 30 bronc riders will all ride one horse and the top 12 will come back for the finals.
Committee chairman Wade Vos, New Under-wood, SD, said, “We’ve made some changes to improve the event this year. We’ll have two big screens going and reserved seating to better ac-commodate the crowd.” He continued, “We’ve also gotten local businesses to sponsor the entry fees for the contestants, which is sure nice.”
The Saddle Bronc Match will start off with a meet and greet with the contestants at 5 p.m., a calcutta for the short round at 6 p.m., and the bronc match at 7 p.m.

19th Annual Old WestCollectors Auctiondedicated to kevin caseyBy amanda radke
Event Highlights
Make plans to attend the 19th Annual Old West Col-lectors Auction at the 2013 Black Hills Stock Show® on Jan. 26. The event is hosted by the Black Hills
Stock Show® Foundation (BHSSF), and this year’s auction is dedicated to Kevin Casey, who passed away in an automobile accident in Dec. 2012. Casey served as the BHSSF vice presi-dent for four years and will be dearly missed by his friends, family and fellow BHSSF officers.
A preview of the items on the auction will start on Friday, Jan. 25, from 4-8 p.m. with a second preview to be held on Saturday, Jan. 26, from 8-10 a.m. The auction will kick off at 10 a.m. The event is held at the Civic Center Theater at the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center in Rapid City, SD.
“We always have around 350 items for sale in the collectors auction,” said Lyn Hus-man, BHSSF president. “We offer every-thing from saddles, to old guns, to military memorabilia, to paintings, to brand books, to spurs and bits – there’s something for everyone.”
Husman said this year’s event will be a tribute to Kevin Casey, who was just 51 years old. A Rapid City-resident, Casey was one of the original owners of Bear Country, and he was very active on the BHSSF board of officers.
“This year the auction is dedicated to Kevin Casey – our BHSSF vice president,” said Husman. “Kevin was one of those guys who would do anything for anybody. Once you met him, you thought you knew him your whole life. He was a great person. He really liked what the BHSSF stands for, as far as raising money for scholarships and
supporting the youth. He was a great family man, too. We are defi-nitely going to miss him. He was a go-getter and would do anything to help the stock show and the foundation.”
Profits from the auction go toward the scholarship program. BHSSF awards six $2,000 scholarships at the Black Hills Stock Show Banquet and Ball on Wednesday, Jan. 30 at the Ramkota Best West-ern. Two $1,000 scholarships are given away during the high school rodeo competitions on Jan. 27, and two more $1,000 scholarships are given away at the State High School Finals Rodeo in Belle Fourche.
“In addition to the scholarships, we also give away money to the Western Junior Livestock Show and help the Black Hills Children Home,” explained Husman. “We have donated money to build the Hospice House in town. We have also donated to give to rural fire departments and rural medical facilities. We have helped local 4-H clubs, as well.”
To raise money for the scholarships and to support the community, BHSSF raises money through four different events – the annual membership drive, the summer golf tournament, the BHSS® Banquet and Ball, and the Old West Collectibles Auction.
“We have a tremendous amount of re-ally great sponsors who donate items to our auction this year,” Husman said. “We have a great support system of volunteers, and we
couldn’t do it without these folks. I want to give a huge thank you to those folks. These events wouldn’t be a success without the tireless efforts and lots of hours donated by our volunteers.”
For more information on the auction, check out www.bhssf.com. Hope to see you there!

Event Highlights
The Black Hills Stock Show® an-nual National Sheep Shearing competition will be held Satur-
day, Jan. 27, beginning at noon at the Crystalyx BioBarrell Sale Ring in Rush-more Hall.
The Black Hills Stock Show® sheep shearing contest began back in 2009, grow-ing each year and gaining interest from both participants and onlookers.
The contest consists of different divisions that include beginners, intermediate and pro-fessionals. Judges and shearers will meet be-fore the event to determine the appropriate division for each participant.
The Sheep Shearing competition will be judged on time and safety of the animal. A demonstration of the technical aspects of
shearing a mature sheep along with a color-ful narrative describing the events to ensure the safety and the well-being of the animal will be provided prior to the event with the timed event trial to follow at noon.
Contestants use electronic shearing equipment to shear eight head in the prelimi-nary round. While speed is important, judges will also look at fleece condition, second cuts in the wool, the number of nicks and appear-ance and handling of sheep. Top finishers in preliminary rounds will move on to the cham-pionship round.
Abraham Lincoln was president when the American Sheep Industry (ASI) was founded in the United States, back in 1865. The American Sheep Industry’s common goal is to provide promotion of profitability and
well-being of the sheep industry throughout the United States.
Sheep are believed to have arrived within the U.S. with Cortez back in 1519. It is said that he brought with him the offspring of sheep from Columbus. The Navajo Churros, the oldest U.S. breed, are said to be those descendants.
Early in America’s history England tried discouraging the wool industry in American colonies, but by 1868 America was actually exporting wool products. England then out-lawed the wool trade, making it punishable by cutting off the perpetrator’s right hand. This action of outlawing the wool trade, along with the Stamp Act, helped fuel the Revolu-tionary War.
Several U.S. presidents have been known to have sheep. George Washington raised

sheep on his Mount Vernon estate, Thomas Jefferson had sheep in Monticello and Wood-row Wilson had sheep grazing the White House lawn.
Worldwide there are more than 1,000 sheep breeds, the most of any type of live-stock. In the U.S. there are 47 different breeds, according to ASI. Sheep breeds are classified by their primary purpose (meat, milk, or wool), types of fibers they provide, face color or by other physical or production characteristics.
Sheep shearing is known as cutting or shaving the sheep’s wool. Shearing doesn’t harm the sheep; it’s very similar to receiving a haircut. However it does require skill to avoid cutting the sheep and turning out a nicely cut fleece. Some small farmers and ranchers shear their own sheep, but most hire profes-sionals to shear their sheep.
Professional shearers can shear a sheep in as little as two minutes, removing the fleece in one piece. The world sheep shearing record is 839 lambs in 9 hours by Rodney Sutton of New Zealand set in 2000 and 720 ewes in 9 hours by Darin Forde of New Zealand.

Cowboys selected their clothing to help them deal with their daily surroundings on the range or the trail. A cow-boy’s getup usually included a heavy, loose fitting woolen shirt that was open at the neck. If there was a coat, it was also loose to make it easy to navigate on horseback.
Some cowboys donned a vest. Most of the time it was either part way or all the way un-buttoned so it wouldn’t cause him to be over-heated and sweat. If a cold wind took a swat at him, the cowboy could button up his vest and coat and stay toasty warm. Well, warm enough at least.
Boots were a key part of the cowboy garb because he couldn’t do anything if he wasn’t well shod. Fine leather was fitted tightly to the unique size and shape of feet and legs, a unique footwear that also featured nar-row soles and small, high heels. The boots
may be bright-colored or feature fancy tops. The Texas Lone Star was often part of the ornamentation.
No effective cowboy could work without gloves. They were made of the finest buck-skin that was not affected by rain or icy cold streams. Most were tanned white and cut with a deep cuff or gauntlet from which an attractive fringe hung, fluttering in the wind.
A cowboy’s hat was also carefully se-lected for personal taste. For the most part it included a heavy, wide brim and heavy leather band. A sturdy felt held the hat’s shape. Well-worn brims were sometimes stiffened by passing a leather strip through a series of holes pierced along the brim’s outer edge. The hat served as an umbrella in rain, shield from the sun and was tied down with a handkerchief to cover ears from cold winter temperatures.
A brightly colored silk kerchief tied in a hard knot in front and worn loosely about the neck protected the back of a cowboy’s neck from a hot summer wind, or wrapped around the neck in the winter kept his neck warm.
Silk scarves served a number of purposes in every season and setting.
Ropes, sometimes called lariats, were an essential piece of cowboy gear. Some were made of rawhide, all were carried in a close coil at the side of the saddle horn. His quirt was a short heavy whip with a stock made ei-ther of wood or iron. Spurs were designed with heavy rowels and bridles were as varied and unique as the cowboy themselves.
Perhaps cowboys didn’t fancy jewelry, but western jewelry and artwork designs are also among the many booths at the BHSS trade show. So take a stroll and plan to stay awhile to check out all the gear at the trade show.

“The Holt brothers are from Aberdeen, South Dakota,” El-wood said. “I’m very excited to see this heifer. I expect to show her several times throughout 2013.”
While Elwood grew up on an acreage about a mile outside of town, showing cattle was not something she has done all her life. She credits her childhood babysitter with stimulating her interest in showing cattle. She participated in her first cattle show when she was in sixth grade.
“We got our first steers from Doug Nelson up in Denby, South Dakota,” Elwood said. He contacted my parents and told them I should start showing cattle and has helped me all
along the way. When I first started I was just showing at the county level. Now I’ve made my way up the ladder to national shows. Bailie Mills, now Bailie Burress, was my babysitter and someone I really looked up to. Bailie has been showing cattle her whole life and she has had a big influence on my interest in showing cattle.”
Elwood participated in the Denver Catch A Calf program back in 2009-2010. When contestants catch a calf, they take care of the calf and return it the following year as a market steer. Elwood notes that, besides just catching the calf, a lot
Emilee Elwoodwins 2012 Heifer Scholarship
Cattlemen’s Family Legacy Scholarship Program
By Loretta SorenSen
She didn’t grow up on a ranch, but Emilee Elwood loves raising, working and showing cattle. The Gordon, NE, high school senior, winner of the 2012 Cattlemen’s Legacy Scholarship, will enhance her beef production knowledge by bringing home a Holt
Brother’s Chiangus heifer from the Black Hills Stock Show® this year. To say the least, El-wood is excited about this unique opportunity and hopes to use it as a springboard to help educate youth about beef production.

of hard work goes into caring for the ani-mal following the competition.
“You have to keep daily records on the calf, which you turn in a year later. You also have to send monthly letters to your sponsor and let them know how
things are going with your animal,” El-wood said. “The year I participated in the event at Denver they made it possible to sell your steer at the Ju-nior Livestock sale there. But only the Grand and Reserve Champions were
allowed to do that. I worked very hard and took Reserve Champion at that sale. That is my most memorable mo-ment as a showman.”
Elwood adds that without the support of her mentors and family, she definitely would not be where she is today.
“I’ve met so many great people throughout this process of showing cat-tle and I’ve had the best mentors. Bob Mills, Jake Scott and many others who are willing to talk to you and give you lots of knowledge,” Elwood said.

Elwood already has many plans for her heifer when she brings her home. Her strategy for developing the heifer includes breeding as well as showing her at several different locations.
“This heifer will have high quality genetics that make it possible for me to start my own herd,” Elwood said. “I will have her bred once I get her back home. I’m required to show her at Rapid City’s Western Junior Live-stock Show, but I plan to show her other places, too. If she’s registered, I can take her to the Junior Nationals in Grand Island, Nebraska.”
There were 16 applicants for the 2012 Cattlemen’s Legacy Scholarship. The application process includes writing an
essay, getting letters of recommendation as well as completing an actual interview.
Elwood says the main thing to re-member when applying for this scholar-ship is to be sincere and consistent.
“When I found out I had won the scholarship I just couldn’t believe it,” Elwood said. “Make sure your letters of recommendation come from people who actually know you. Be honest and sincere about why you would like to win this scholarship. Through this oppor-tunity I hope to help other youth learn

Buyers, simply because there is a shortage of inventory on the market does not mean that it is a bad time to buy. There wouldn’t be a shortage of inventory if land was not a solid investment, now maybe more than ever. Buy-ing a farm or ranch doesn’t necessarily mean you have to be on the property managing it yourself. Hiring a good ranch manager to protect maintain and manage your land, as well as manage production and sales is key to making the investment produce as much as possible for you. Ranch ownership is different than ownership of most types of real estate. It requires knowledge of the current operations, an understanding of the resources available on the ranch and a grasp of the financial and budgeting processes. Successful ranch management requires a balance of wildlife and resource management with that of productive agricultural operations. Pfister Land Company, LLC is also on the leading edge of mineral aquisisition, leasing and disposition. If you have minerals on productive land with good water rights call us immediately.
Pfister Land Company, LLC has a proven track record, a well-branded name and reputation as one of the best ranch brokerage companys in the west. If you choose Pfister Land Company, LLC you have joined hands with profes-sionals that love and believe what they do. This is a job, a lifestyle and our passion. We are licensed in nine states throughout the west. For every offering, our presence is local, regional, national and global. Two of our brokers are licensed Wyoming attorneys, and one is also a licensed Colorado attorney. Our due diligence work is second to none in the industry and our background as attorneys and ranch brokers clearly distinguish us from our competition.
We have extensive experience with water rights, oil, gas and mineral rights, 1031 tax-deferred exchanges, easements and private road rights, conservation easements, habitat enhancement for wildlife and fish and much more.
OOver the past year we have watched the ranch real estate market drastically change. The selling market is no longer flooded with properties that sellers have to sell. Buyers are lined up once again like they were in 2005, however these buyers are certainly more crit-ical with where, what and when they want to buy. Currently Pfister Land Company, LLC is representing multiple buyers attempting to find land in almost every land classification from the half million dollar buyer to the five million dollar buyer looking to expand their cow/calf operation all the way up to the forty million dollar equity firm looking to buy large ranches and/or farms with minerals.
Our purpose is to assist you in buying or selling property and to ensure that your overall experience is pleasant, ef-ficient, and gratifying—throughout the entire process.

about this program and gain experience in beef production.”
While no one else in Elwood’s fam-ily has shown cattle in the past, her younger brother is now getting in to it. Her parents support both their children’s activities.
“I’m glad my parents allowed me to start showing cattle. I feel it has made me a more responsible person. I had to feed my cattle and get calves halter broke in order to show them. It’s been a lot of hard work, but it pays off in the end,” Elwood said.
The Holt Brothers welcome the opportunity to provide Elwood with a heifer. Justin, who works with his wife
Kali and brother Jordan, says they’ve seen great success in bringing their Chiangus cattle to the Black Hills Stock Show®. They see participation in the scholarship as a way to give something back to fellow cattlemen and aspiring youth.
“We’ve seen numerous junior stock show members do very well in shows with animals they’ve purchased from us,” Justin said. “Many of our livestock have been recognized as winners at the Black Hills Stock Show®. We appreciate all the opportunities that have come our way because of this show. We believe it’s more important than ever for young people to be involved in beef produc-tion. By starting at an early age they’re able to build up a cow herd and use qual-ity genetics that will last for a lifetime.”
Elwood will go to Chadron State Col-lege in the fall to study dentistry. She will continue to develop her knowledge of and experience with the beef industry.
“There are so many people out there that don’t know about our beef industry and agriculture. I hope to help consum-ers become more informed about where their food comes from,” Elwood said.
For youth currently showing cattle or those who would like to begin show-ing cattle, Elwood says there is one im-portant key element at the beginning – a mentor.
“Find a good mentor,” Elwood said. “I would not be where I am without them. I’ve learned a lot along the way. It’s been a lot of hard work, but I’ve en-joyed every minute of it!”

“We do three qualifying rounds in the morning, and nine teams advance back to the finals, which start at 7 p.m. The top three teams from the year be-fore are also invited back for the final round, for a total of 12 teams com-peting in the evening performance,” explained BHSS Ranch Rodeo Chair-man Kevin Schmidt of how the event is structured.
In addition to being held at new lo-cation in 2013, Schmidt noted that new prizes will also be awarded this year, the biggest being four trophy saddles to the average winners.
“That’s a first for us this year. In the past, we have awarded a 20X felt hat of choice and a pair of K Bar J Chinks to the top hand, and a bridle, bit, win-
ter horse blanket and spurs to the top horse,” explained Schmidt, adding that jackets, breast collars and cash are also common prizes awarded at the event.
Since Schmidt took the reins of the event, it has seen tremendous growth, going from roughly a dozen teams 12 years ago, to well over 50 last year. En-tries for the 2013 rodeo close Jan. 14, and while Schmidt said he would be happy as long as there were 12 entered teams, he added that he also wouldn’t be surprised to see competitor num-bers increase again.
“It’s a lot bigger than most ranch rodeos, with 60-some teams compet-ing last year, which made for a lot of good competition,” explained Kadoka, SD, rancher and member of the 2012
a publication of tri-state livestock news Black hills stock show & rodeo® 2013 91
Reserve Champion team Luke Van-derMay of the sheer size of the event compared to other ranch rodeos he competes in throughout the year.
During the three preliminary morn-ing rounds, each four-member team competes in such events as steer load-ing, range doctoring and stray gather-ing. Emphasis is placed on keeping events focused on ranching related practices that the contestants may en-counter in everyday ranch life.
“It’s all about having the fast time – you need to get a solid time in about every event without any major screw-ups. It’s also important to have guys that are knowledgeable about ranching and roping, and they need to be able to read each other and work together in a solid

and steady way,” explained VanderMay of what makes a good ranch rodeo team and on what helps a team make it to the final round of competition.
The finals will include a combination of new and old events, including the Titan Trailer relay race, rope-mug-tie event, double mugging and the Crown Royal ranch bronc ride. Wild cow milk-ing is also typically a final round event, but had to temporarily be removed from the contest due to a lack of usable cows, and will replaced be with stray gathering this year.
“We apologize for not having a wild cow milking. With everything being so dry this year, the gentleman who we have been getting cows from sold them. We are working on find-

ing cows for next year, and hope to return the wild cow milking event if possible,” explained Schmidt of why the event was temporarily removed.
According to the BHSS website, the trailer relay starts with all four contes-tants exiting a pickup, then mounting their horses for a relay race in which each team member rounds the arena. Once complete, they must reload their horses into the trailer, and time is called when all contestants are back in the pickup and they flash their headlights to signal time.
The rope-mug-tie event is similar to the preliminary range doctoring event, and requires each team to rope and bulldog a preselected steer, then tie it by three legs. Stray gathering involves roping and tying down two pre-selected steers in a specific fashion.
“My favorite event is the bronc rid-ing, because it’s the roughest and wild-est of the entire day, noted VanderMay of the last event of the final round, where one member of each team is re-

quired to ride a bronc for six seconds in a stock saddle. Following the ride, a mounted team member catches the bronc, and the remaining two team members assist the rider in dismount-ing, then the team is required to un-saddle the horse.
Being among the top three finishing teams in 2012 means VanderMay will return in 2013 with the same team, and is guaranteed a spot in the final round of competition. He commented that the whole team, sponsored by the First Na-tional Bank out of Phillip, SD, is excited for the 2013 contest.
“It’s almost like a vacation for some people. Lots go to compete, but there is also a lot of visiting and interacting. I’ve met a lot of people that I consider really good friends. Plus, there aren’t any brandings to go visit during the winter so we all go to the ranch rodeo instead during the winter,” he noted with a laugh.
Lots of families also make an evening of watching the fast-paced final round of competition, which can include just about anything as far as rodeo goes.
“You just don’t know what you’re going to see. You might witness a big wreck, and you will for sure see some fast paced events that are fun to watch. I definitely recommend seeing it,” concluded VanderMay of his advice to those who will not be enjoying the rodeo from a competi-tor’s vantage point.

Justin, Jeannie and Kassidy McKee
a publication of tri-state livestock news Black hills stock show & rodeo® 2013 109
Justin McKee lives a double life, he’s part announcer/part cowboy. But that’s not all… for the last decade he has been the host and play-by-play an-nouncer of the Professional Bull Rid-ers tour which airs weekly on VERSUS (formerly known as OLN) and several times a year on NBC, CBS and ESPN. He also appears regularly as a host on RFD-TV.
Besides being the “Voice of the PBR” McKee announces many rodeos including some of the biggest rodeos on the circuit, like Cheyenne, Pend-leton and Ellensburg. During these rodeos Justin has been known to dis-appear from the announcer’s booth for a portion of the performance only to pop up in the arena as a contestant in the Steer Roping. In 1999 he finished in the top 35 for the year in the PRCA standings. In 2004 McKee won the 1st go-round in Steer Roping at Chey-enne. Then went on to place at several other rodeos including 2nd in the av-erage at The Pendleton Round-Up. When the year was over he just missed qualifying for the NFR by three spots, ending the season in 18th place in the world standings. The remarkable part was he did it with a very limited roping schedule. McKee struck again in 2005, placing in rounds and making it back to the short-go at both Cheyenne and Pendleton. In 2006 Justin’s schedule with VERSUS and the PBR made it harder for him to compete as much as he would have liked to but his zest for steer roping has not diminished and he remains an outstanding competitor whenever he enters the arena.
The ranch raised cowboy from Lenapah, OK, not only talks about bulls a lot, he raises his own. With the
help of his wife, Jeannie, and young daughter, Kassidy, McKee Ranch raises purebred bucking stock selling bucking bull futurity prospects and re-placement heifers. The McKee Ranch is also well known for their quarter horses. Jeannie raises, trains and sells wel-bred barrel racing horses.
“I thank God everyday for blessing me with the opportunity to make a living
at something I enjoy so much.” Justin’s enthusiasm for rodeo and life is conta-gious and genuine. He admits, “I am one of the biggest fans in rodeo, when I’m behind the mic, I’m having a great time and one of my main goals is that every-one there is having fun too.”

PrcA Announcer of the YeAr
2005, 2010 & 2012
Wayne Brooks
a publication of tri-state livestock news Black hills stock show & rodeo® 2013 111
As a PRCA announcer, Wayne Brooks brings a fresh enthusiasm to the sport enjoyed by thousands across the nation. Like many announcers, his rodeo career began in the arena as a contestant. While competing in the rough stock events, he gained an in-sight into the sport which he presents to the audience to make them truly a part of each performance. His broad-casting background has proven invalu-able in rodeo promotion and sponsor recognition. Combining these experi-ences, Wayne creates an announcing style that is both informative and en-tertaining. Whether it’s wild and west-ern or polished and professional, it’s excitement at its best!
A PRCA member since 1994, Wayne had the honor of being chosen as the 2005, 2010 and 2012 Announcer of the Year, with six additional nomina-tions in this category. Wayne was se-lected as one of the announcers at the Wrangler National Finals in 2005 after making his NFSR debut in 2000 with the legendary Clem McSpadden. He has announced the Dodge National Circuit Finals Rodeo in Pocatello, ID, three times and the Pace Picante Pr-Rodeo Chute-Out five times. Wayne has been the voice at the Canadian Finals Rodeo for the past six years, as well as the Indian Nationals Finals five times. His resume also includes finals in the Mountain States, Turquoise, Co-lumbia River, and Wilderness Circuits. He announces other such respected rodeos as the Calgary Stampede, Reno Rodeo, Pendleton Roundup, Cali-fornia Rodeo Salinas, Rodeo Austin,
Red Bluff Roundup, Black Hills Stock Show Rodeo®, and the Clovis Rodeo.
Though he was born in Prescott, AZ, he was reared on the ranchlands of Wyoming and Colorado. He be-lieves it was this raising that instilled in him the importance of preserving the heritage of the West. He continues to give credence to the mystique of being Western at each performance he an-nounces. He believes “being involved in rodeo has provided me the opportu-
nity to do what I enjoy. It’s the people that make a difference-and rodeo has the best.”
When he’s not announcing ro-deos, Wayne serves as a commercial voice talent. He and his wife, Mela-nie, have two daughters, Taylor and Sheridan, and a son, Ace. Although they travel across the United States and Canada, they make their home in Lampasas, TX.

116 Black hills stock show & rodeo® 2013 a publication of tri-state livestock news
Jim Willson has lived on Crook Mountain Angus Ranch since 1946. His folks moved to the rural White-wood, SD, farm and ranch when he
was just five years old. He joined the Junior Angus Association in 1956 and has owned purebred Angus cattle ever since. “I’ve registered cattle for over 55
years,” he said. Jim and his wife Donna have been married and worked together for 45 years and “she deserves an award for putting up with me,” he joked.
Willson’s father Frank and his mother Mildred bought three regis-tered Angus cow-calf pairs from Bon View Farms, Canova, SD, in 1953, and the family Angus operation was born. “We added some cattle later from Hy-land Angus Ranch, (Highmore, SD).” While neither of those businesses is in operation today, both were instrumen-tal in helping jump-start a young man’s dream. “I was in the service for three years, and when I returned, dad kind of turned the breeding over to me. He liked farming and other things better,” said Willson. Fifty years ago, the Angus breed wasn’t as popular, but Willson credits his stubborn nature for helping him stick it out. “We struggled a lot in the early years, everybody was still Her-eford; I honestly never thought back then that Angus would get this big.”
“But I always say, it’s not a job, it’s a hobby. It’s fun,” said Willson, who showed cattle at the Black Hills Stock Show® and the winter show in
Jim Willson has seen Angus cattle of every shape and size in the past six decades. “I’ve watched them go from little tiny, belt buckle high cattle to the kind that I couldn’t see
the top of. I always try to stay in the middle, about a frame score six.”

Watertown, “in the early days” but now focuses his attention on intensely breeding a couple of his favorite pedi-grees. “About 30 years ago I got more interested in line breeding cattle and trying to get some cattle that you could double up. Cattle that would get better the closer you bred them together. But it takes a long time to find those cattle.” Willson admits he made mistakes along the way. “I used lots and lots of bulls that didn’t work and very few that did. That’s what everybody goes through.”
One that worked for Willson was Rol-lin Rock Hero 2418, a bull he purchased from Bill Davis, Sydney, MT,(formerly of Belgrade, MT) 20 years ago.
“I always call him the best bull I ever bought. I got him 20 years ago and I still AI to him every year,” said Will-

son. “My breeding philosophy is differ-ent from most of the other breeders. Many of them use the hottest bull out there, but the females were so good out of the 2418 bull I kept using him. I’ve got cows that go back to him five or six times or maybe more, and I’ve only got one cow that doesn’t have Hero in her at all.” The other bull on Willson’s short list of favorites is Crook Mountain Re-ally Windy 141, a grandson of the great 2418 bull. He’ll be 12 this spring when Willson turns him out with the cows. “I just cross those cattle back and forth and back and forth,” he said. “I use an outside bull every so often, just to try them,” he said. But even then he usu-ally shies away from the “popular ones”
that everyone else is using. “I guess everyone has a niche, and my niche is being an outcross for people. I get excited when someone asks what I’m using in my herd and they say they’ve never heard of it. That makes my day.”
Willson’s niche has made him a unique source for efficient, moderate line bred genetics. “Every so often, I get a call from people looking for a heifer with a sire/daughter mating, a lot of folks are looking to do something dif-
ferent, I guess that is what makes what I’m doing kind of neat.”
It has taken some time and patience to achieve his goals. “I tried other lines and even when I’d find a bull I liked, after I’d breed them up real close, the calves would get worse instead of bet-ter. When I started breeding up real close with that old Hero bull, I could breed daughters to their sire and they got better and better. I think some of the modern breeders find a good bull

but they don’t use him enough, they can’t wait to go on to the next big thing. My philosophy is, if you find a good bull you ought to use him a bunch and get a lot of that line in your herd. The daugh-ters of Hero, the more you get in them, the better they are, and the same with my Windy bull.” Willson admits that linebreeding takes time – years – and some breeders don’t want to wait that long. “I breed for percentages – I want a high percentage of good ones. You’ll always get a few poor ones, even out of a good bull. But if you use a less than great bull, you’ll get a high percent-age of poor bulls. Sure, you’ll still get a good one once in a while, usually just
because the mama’s good, but I want consistency and great females.”
Willson says he is always thinking of the maternal side when making breed-ing selections, in fact he believes that the most important thing a purebred breeder can do is develop a fertile and productive cowherd. “I’ve always bred for the cows, the bulls will take care of themselves if you’ve got good females.” Willson insists in large scrotal measure-ments and low birthweights, and his cows have to breed within 45 to 50 days or they go to town.

with Willson and now runs most of the “semi-retired” breed-er’s cattle on shares. “Lance and Kerry Frei have most of my cows. Lance and I split up the bulls when we wean. We get along great, I can’t say enough about that great family, I re-ally enjoy them,” said Willson. He met Frei at the Faith Stock Show one year when the two of them judged the Pen of Three Show together. “I went home, and I was so excited to tell my wife, Donna, about this young man I had met, who saw cattle just like me. I just couldn’t believe it. A while later, Lance’s dad, John Frei, came to buy some semen, and we got to vis-iting about my desire to slow down a little, and he told me to give Lance a call. The rest is history. We’ve built a really good relationship.” At his peak, Willson sold about 50 bulls per year. Now he sells about 20, with Lance and Kerry offer-ing about 30 for sale. Willson hosted a sale at home for a few years, and at the salebarn a couple times, but in recent years has sold his bulls via private treaty. Hosting a sale was a lot of stress. One year he got 14 inches of snow on sale day. “This way, I don’t have to feed the bulls as much, and it takes a lot of pressure off me.” Willson said that if he doesn’t have just the right bull for a customer, he sends them to Frei, who will do the same thing in return.
Willson’s son Doug lives in Texas and his daughter Melanie in Colorado. The Willsons have been blessed with four grandkids.

He has been a longtime member of the South Dakota Stockgrowers Association and the South Dakota Angus Asso-ciation, served on the fair board, was a charter member of Black Hills Angus Association serving as their president at one point. Additionally, Willson is a charter member of the Black Hills Bap-tist Church in Whitewood, and sat on extension boards. He says he’s busy now that he’s retired but he doesn’t know if he’ll ever be able to fully retire because he won’t have time. “Once you retire, they all think you’ve got time, pretty soon you are so busy doing everything for everyone
else that you’ve got no time for yourself,” he laughed.
Although he has a different gameplan from many of the newer Angus breeders, Willson is optimistic about the industry and quick to offer praise for the next generation. “I think the Angus breed will always stay on top of the game because we’ve got a mama cow that does ev-erything right. We’ve got a lot of good young Angus breeders coming up, they’ve got different ideas than me but they’ve got the same energy and fire to keep the breed going. There are a lot of these young guys who will get the job done.”

One of the most critical times of the year for proper trace mineral and vitamin supplementation in your cow herd is prior to calving. Weak calves and poor colostrum are often due to inadequate protein, energy and phosphorus intake. CRYSTALYX® BGF-30™ and Breed-Up® 28 are self-fed, nutrient-dense, high protein supplements fortified with the extra phosphorus and trace minerals cows need for optimum reproductive performance.

For ranchers, stray gathering is just an everyday chore. Most give little thought to the skills they use in accomplish-ing the task.
However, since a stray gathering event has been incorpo-rated into rodeo and stock show activities over the past five years, interest in how the job is done has continued to grow.
The stray gathering competition is a timed event that showcases at least a two-person team that ropes and ties down a yearling. Depending on competition rules, four cow-boys may work together in the arena to catch and tie two animals. Kacy Wachob, a Gordon, NE, rancher, regularly participates in the stray gathering event.
“Stray gathering has become more and more popular over the past five years,” Wachob said. “It originated with pasture doctoring, where two people roped one animal. Stray gathering involves two, 2-person teams. Each team has one member who heads and one who heels. You have to rope the animal, lay them down and tie three legs together. The animal must stay tied for a specified time-frame, typi-cally six seconds.”
The competition begins with the riders lined up at one end of the arena. The yearlings are released at the opposite

Stray Gathering a Popular Event For
AllBy Loretta SorenSen

end of the arena. Team members start when the judge drops his flag.
After the yearlings are roped by the headers, the ropes are then tightened to slow the yearlings down so the heel-ers can throw their loops and catch the animal’s heels.
“If I miss heading the yearling, I have to make a second attempt,” Wa-chob said, “or my team member could do the heading for me. At that point, I would become the heeler.”
Once both header and heeler have accomplished their jobs, the cowboys dismount and quickly tie the yearling’s legs. In a four-member competition, if one team gets their yearling on the ground and the other team has caught their animal and is in the process of tying it, both teams can work together to complete the competition.
Every cowboy involved in stray gath-ering competition uses a rope. Prior to each event, team members make a de-
cision as to who will start as header and heeler. When the event involves roping two animals, the teams can’t assist each
other in roping, but once the animal is on the ground the teams are allowed to help each other tie it up.
“The fastest time wins,” Wachob said. “It may not seem like it, but there’s a lot of pressure in a timed event. You don’t want to throw any wild shots. You’re looking for speed and consistency and want to make every move count.”
Roping skills are a key part of win-ning a stray gathering competition. However, the cowboys need to bring much more than that to the arena.
“Being able to read the animal and figure out if it’s going to go right or left, so everything falls together and you get the animal roped, that’s important,” Wachob said. “Knowing how to tie the legs together so the animal stays tied for the entire six seconds is crucial, too. Strength and skill are very important in
“Having a horse with natural abi l i ty is
nice … Most competitors are
using horses with a lot of experience in
heading and heel ing.”

this event. Yearlings can be pretty big, so strength helps when it comes to lay-ing them down.”
The skills of the horses used in stray gathering competition are every bit as important as those of the cowboys. Heading horses are generally stout and strong so they can handle an animal without struggling. Heeler horses need the ability to stop on their back legs. An experienced ranch horse stays with the cowboy while the animal is being tied.
“Having a horse with natural ability is nice,” Wachob said. “Most competi-tors are using horses with a lot of expe-rience in heading and heeling.”

As for “essential gear” used for stray gathering, Wachob says there’s nothing special about the saddle a cowboy uses in stray gathering. If it’s one they’re used to riding it will do. Most roping saddles have thick horns to support the extra force ropes cause. Some ropers use rubber-wrapped horns around the saddle horn to help the rope grip when the roper dallies (wraps his rope around his horn) and to protect the horn from damage caused by the rope.
Roping gloves are usually made of cotton and protect cowboys’ hands from rope burns. As for ropes, the type of rope used will vary, depending on whether the cowboy is heading or heel-ing and what kind of rope he’s used to using.
“Headers tend to like to use softer ropes. It has more drop to it and you can get a nice figure eight to come back around,” Wachob said. “Heelers typi-cally use a stiffer rope because it stands up better for heeling the animal. The yearlings tend to get pretty wild when you’re tying their legs together, so a stronger tie string is better for that.”
Stray gathering is one of the more action packed events at rodeos, so spectators will not be bored as they watch the event unfold. Wachob notes

that, while stray gathering is one of the safer rodeo events, there is still a chance for injury.
“For people watching the stray gathering event, there’s a lot to see,” Wachob said. “It’s much safer than bronc riding or wild cow milking, but if you have one team set up to go left and another set up to go right, there’s a chance horses or yearlings could col-lide. You need to be sure you’re aware of your surroundings so those types of things don’t occur.”
Wachob and his fellow cowboys take part in several stray gathering events during the year. He usually prefers to head if possible.
“I’m not as strong on heeling,” Wachob said. “However, working as a team you need to be prepared to work either end. It’s a tough event and you’re catching your breath when it’s done, but it’s fun. It seems to be gain-ing more popularity and I hope to see it continue to grow.”
Stray Gathering will be held Thurs., Jan. 24 at 7:00 pm at the Kjerstad Event Center, located on the Central States Fair grounds. Music by The Beersling-ers will follow.

During the bull riding event, one or more athletes, dressed in clown type clothing, stands near the bucking chute when the bull is released into the arena. When the bull rider is either thrown from the bull or dismounts on his own, the bull fighters step in between him and the bull to distract the bull and allow the cowboy to escape from danger. Bull fighters perform a daring, dangerous and vital function by both entertaining the fans and protecting the cowboy.
Bullfighters
Mike Matt bullfigHter Jan 25-feb 2
Mike Matt’s bull fighting talents are documented by the fact that he won the 2004 Professional Bull Riders bull fighting competition during the PBR national finals in Las Vegas and prior to that time was a three time winner of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys bull fighting competition before the PRCA dropped the event.
Three years ago, Mike introduced his new specialty act which has captivated rodeo crowds throughout the country. Riding roman style on two horses he has trained himself, he circles the arena to build up speed and momentum, finally ap-proaching an automobile at full gallop and jumping over it. This act can also be performed at virtually any venue where there is sufficient room.
Josh RiviniusbullfigHter Jan 25-feb 2
Josh Rivinius from Elgin, ND, began his rodeo career at an early age, from riding calves and steers, to steer wrestling and bareback riding through high school. He soon found fight-ing bulls was his specialty. In 1997 he attended Sankey Rodeo School where he developed his skills. He provides one major job and that is cowboy protection. Rivinius says every time cowboys and bullfighters leave the arena unharmed is a victory.
Some of his achievements are; 8x Badlands Circuit Finals Bullfighter; Black Hills Stock Show®; National Western Stock Show; 2x Tour Finale; Ram National Circuit Finals; College National Finals. When not running around bulls, Rivinius spends his time at home managing a commercial cow operation.

Loyd KetchumbullfigHter Jan 25-feb 2
Loyd Ketchum began his career at an early age. Growing up in a small rural town in eastern Montana, rodeo was a part of everyone’s life. His mother is a barrel racer, and while traveling with his mother he developed a love for horses and rodeo himself. While attending high school and college he participated in every event ex-cept bareback riding. It wasn’t until after college that he began his bullfighting ca-reer. He began by working amateur ro-deos, being both the funny man and the bullfighter.
In 1987 Loyd got his PRCA card and started bullfighting with the professionals. In the '80s and early '90s, Wrangler Bull-fighting became one of the most popular events at the rodeos. He not only partici-pated in the bullfights, but he also worked as cowboy protection. One of Loyd’s great-est achievements in his career was win-ning the Wrangler bullfights at the NFR in 1991. From 1992-96, he was chosen to be the bullfighter at the NFR. Loyd was also very involved with RAWHIDE (Rodeo Athletes on Wellness).
During the ‘90s, Loyd established him-self as one of the best bullfighters in the PRCA, which has generated enough work to keep him busy all year round. Not only working in the PRCA, he also worked many of the Bull Riders Only events that continued on to be the PBR. Loyd’s slogan is “Bullfighting with Class and Finesse.” He consistently shows his dedication, loy-alty, and support to both the PRCA and the sport of rodeo. You can see Loyd signing autographs, public speaking and support-ing his passion for the world of RODEO!
On Sept. 5, 2009, Loyd fractured his T-12 vertebra and sustained a spinal cord contusion when he was thrown in the air by a bull and landed badly. A rod was in-serted into his back and vertebra’s fused together. Doctors told him he would be
fully recovered in six months, but four months later he was fighting bulls at the Black Hills Stock Show Rodeo®.
“Every day is a good day” Loyd states. “Sometimes we hit a stumbling block in life for a reason; I just look at it as another
challenge.”

When Keith Isley steps into the arena as the barrelman at the Black Hills Stock Show Rodeo®, he will have an extra spring in his step.
The ever energetic entertainer has been widely recognized as one of the greatest entertainers in the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA). He joined the PRCA in 1995 and just had five rodeos booked.
His status in the association grew in 1999 when he received the Specialty
Act of the Year award and that became the highlight of his career. He has been nominated and won more awards, but it is going to be hard to top what happened to him in December of 2009, 2010 and 2011. The PRCA honors the sport’s top personnel and rodeo committees at their annual awards banquet.
Isley has left the banquet as the most decorated individual of night three times. He has won six consecutive Clown of the Year honors, five Coors “Man in the Can” awards and three Comedy Act

The Benefits of Eary Weaning: Extra carcass quality (up to 25% more Choice and Prime) when the calf is introduced to starchy feeds (corn) at an earlier age. Healthier than calves weaned at normal weaning.
So how do I “Early Wean”: Start calves on creep feed early. Calves that are aware that there is ‘food’ in the creep feeder can be ‘weaned’ any time that the markets or weather dictate.

of the Year awards. In 2009, 2010 and 2011, Isley won all three of these award categories, which is known as the “Triple Crown”.
The native of North Carolina is quick to give credit to the rodeo committees that hire him and while he may not be a natural born entertainer he has em-braced the challenge and developed rou-tines that leave audiences wanting more.
“I was really shy and the audiences were intimidating,” he said. “I finally got comfortable with face paint and baggy pants put a shield between me and the audience. I started telling jokes and when the audience reacted, I enjoyed that.”
His career in the rodeo arena started as a competitor. He competed in bare-back riding and bull riding as a teenager in junior rodeos. A couple years later bullfighting caught his eye. At that time, bullfighters were expected to do comedy as well.
Isley found his niche and now enter-tains rodeo crowds across the country as the barrelman and with his specialty acts. His ability to train animals is well known. He has learned to work the crowd and spends every second in the rodeo arena doing his best to make sure that every audience member has a good time.
“After being in this business for over 30 years, I still get nervous," he said. “Then when you see the people react to the things you do, it’s very rewarding.”
He will be gauging the reactions of the fans in the Rapid City Civic Center dur-ing the Black Hills Stock Show Rodeo® and doing his best to show them why he is one of the most decorated entertainers in the PRCA.

Rodney Yost Horsemanship Demon-strations will be held for the first time at the Black Hills Stock Show
& Rodeo® this year on Saturday, Jan. 26 at 10 a.m. and Friday, Feb. 1 at 10 a.m. at the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center in the Barnett Arena.
Rodney Yost is a 4th generation South Dakota rancher who has been involved with ranching and horse customs his entire life. He’s been on horseback since he was a baby in diapers on his family’s ranch, started training ponies at the age of 10, and trained his first horse at the age of 13. Since then, he has become one of the top horse trainers and clinicians in South Dakota and throughout the Midwest. Over the past few years, Rodney has instructed many horsemanship clinics and dem-onstrations for all ages and riding levels. His unique training style and sense of humor has made him a sought after horse-manship clinician throughout the United States and Canada. He is the first and only 4-time champion of the Crosswinds Ranch Colt Training Challenge that is held at Michigan State University every spring, and has won multiple Ranch Horse Colt Futurity competitions. He has become known for creat-ing a relationship with his horses to produce extremely sup-ple, well-mannered, and responsive horses that are capable of many disciplines.
Growing up in the heart of cattle-country in South Dakota, Rodney developed a love for the land and livestock at an early age. Over the years, this partnership with the ranching lifestyle has blossomed into a progressive mindset regarding his family-owned and operated Broadaxe Ranch, along with its expansive commercial cattle herd, and American Quarter Horse breeding and training program.
What started out as a necessity of the Broadaxe Ranch operation, breeding and training their own horses for ranch use, Rodney Yost Horsemanship developed most naturally through many years of on-the-job learning and real life ex-periences of utilizing horses for everyday ranch work. For a horseman or horsewoman of any level to have the opportunity of an enjoyable and successful experience while horseback, Rodney believes it is clearly essential to have the correct tools and philosophy to enable all riders the ability to develop a horse that can pull the throttle back to sit, relax, and go slowly at times, while likewise having the ability to step down on the gas pedal when needed in the heat of the action. Horses that have the training, foundation, and ability to make that distinc-tion easily rise to the top and become the cream of the crop in all disciplines.
Rodney Yost Horsemanship Demonstrations and Ride-Along Clinics aim to demonstrate, teach, and enable everyone to have a variation of hypothetical tools, a common-sense train-ing mindset, combined with the most elite training techniques. Along with Rodney’s personal learning experiences over the years, Rodney Yost Horsemanship works tirelessly to give all individuals insight regarding the natural instinct, thinking pro-cess, and behavior of a horse in an effort to “help the horse to teach itself”.
