2010 Ft Worth Stock Show...
January 16-20 We did well at the show and came home with Grand Champion Beefbuilder Heifer and Beefbuilder bull. Division Winner Fullblood Bull TLC Buds Cowboy. TLC Turks Malinda and TLC Turks Bart both baldies caught lots of attention. TLC Turks Jacki O won her class and Turks Olive owned by Brittney Free also won her class of Beefbuilders. TLC Turks Doc won his class of coming yearling bulls. TLC Hello Dolly was 2nd in Class of Senior Yearling Heifers. TLC Silver Lace was 5th in Class of Fullblood Purebred and TLC Buds Starzina was 4th in Class. All in all we had a great show and were selected for the Herdsman Award of the 120 head show. They lost our entry for Breeders Herd and Get of Sire otherwise we would have came home with it also as we were the only one there with that many head in the Beefbuilder Division. We took a total of eight head. Three Fullbloods and five Beefbuilders.

Jaden Jones from Sorcorro New Mexico purchased TLC Major Moneyman Steer from us last year. He was TLCC Tina's first calf. ( DJ Titan x TLC Whoa Girl) His average rate of gain was 4.127 pounds per day on a 189 day feedout. He weighed in on Feb 20, 2010 and weighed 1470 on September 2, 2010. That says something about the feeding ability on our Maine cross calves. Congratulation Jaden and Family! We are happy you won the Buckle and Plaque.
TLCC Moneyman as a calf at side. Jaden and steer jsut before last weigh in.
