first tip to tip...
Ben had his first tip to tip measurement today (it wasn't easy - 8.5"). He is inspired by this massive 5 year old steer at Dick Cain's. 60,70,49,0,B,0
that would take some faith to climb in the corral with Cain's steer for a measurement - is that what happens when the energy is re-directed from one end to the other? Could picture him heaving the big sigh & rubbing his neck at the end of the day when he hung those on the "horn-rack" Gary Larson style. expectations leak
ALRIGHT! looking forward to more rack measurements. Look how those little horns are agrowin. Ben's gonna be a winner (just cuz he's so cute!). By the way, Mr. Cain has that fierce lookin steer hangin 'round? Major watusi, right?

ReplyDeleteIf you commission a painting from one of your photos of Benita, I bet it would be magnifico! Her website is quite inspiring.
ReplyDeleteArt collector is added to the many titles you hold.
I'm betting Carl wishes he could grow horns like that. If he had horns, he could REALLY be the boss!
ReplyDeletedude, if he was castrated, would he be happy there like in a jail ? is that his true nature (wild free longhorns) ?
ReplyDeleteNice framing.
ReplyDeleteThe little guy is on his way.
That is one awesome rack.
