This clinic will provide a hands-on course with supervision at all times. You will learn proven techniques and tips on clipping, hoof trimming, show day dressing, showmanship, feeding, and general care. I will also share many of the solutions to problems I’ve encountered over the years. In addition to the hands-on experience, we like to get together each day for group discussions covering a variety of topics. In the 14 years running, we have continually updated and improved these clinics in order to bring you the best and most sought after clinic you can attend. These clinics are an excellent crash course on everything in the show cattle industry.
