     * TSCRA MEDIA RELEASE  Veterinarian James Gober shares steps for ensuring bull health and reproductive success this breeding season. Thousands of dollars are spent yearly on the purchase of elite livestock by operations large and small. Whether it be a seedstock producer or a commercial cow-calf operator, both know the investment a herd bull is. His ability to produce high-value calves is mandatory for long-term business success.  While many considerations affect a bull’s success at producing calves of that caliber, one thing serves as the foundation — his health. “Healthy, productive herd bulls are vital to the success of any cattle operation, not to mention one of the more expensive input costs,” says James Gober. “It is important that we have the bulls functioning and peak performance during the breeding season.

  Spooked Horses Get First Place Checks  Courtesy of Yellowstone TV 2020 Snaffle Bit Futurity in Ft. Worth Texas has sure caused a stir on the intrawebnet with a banner on the fence. Most of the horses competing in the hackamore class got spooked by the  Yellowstone banner on the fence. Many of the horse got low or no score, so  the show officials wanted to take it down and give the riders a do over.....  Banner stayed up and Taylor Sheridan (one of the creators of Yellowstone) who is at the show doing some filming announced that the banner would stay up and he would pay the first-place money to all the competitors in the class. That is $13K each for a total of $181,000.00 is that good marketing or rewarding failure? What about the horses who competed and did not spook at the banner, should they all be rewarded equally?  When you train and haul horses for a living competing in different arenas across the USA you must be ready for any environment.
