I've added a display of the average price of 600-700 lb feeder steers in the five regions of Texas to the market reports for that state...
You know how every year a calf will get loose at a show and run through a crowd of people but miraculously never actually run into somebody?
It’s mainly because people hear the yelling and get out the way but largely because most show steers, even the stupid ones, don’t actually want to run through people, they just want to get free. There was even an episode of Myth Busters where they put a bull in a china shop and he didn’t hit anything.
Have you ever wondered what would happen if one of those calves just blew up somebody with well below average hearing that was looking the other direction?
It hurts.
The calf that got me was evidently going fast enough that he sprained my ankles from the collision before I ended up face first in the dirt.
Here’s a six-year-old artists rendition of it…
What was that thing in the middle of the ring for several classes in Seguin this past weekend?
It was filming this...
If you’re on your phone right now, pull up that video in the Youtube App (NOT just a normal browser) and move your phone around you. The video will show whatever was in the direction you are pointing the camera.
If you had a VR head set, it would show the video as if you are standing in the middle of the ring.
