General Information: Judging is based on preparation of animals for show, their apparent training and the appearance and behavior of the showman. It is the skill of the showman in presenting the animal before the judge that counts while individual excellence of the animal does not. Showman is required to be in official 4-H dress. Each 4-H livestock exhibitor is eligible to show one entry in each livestock division of the fair. Exhibitors must show their own animal. Classes are divided by the exhibitor's 4-H age (Dec. 31, previous year).
*Beef Showmanship is “Blow and Go.”
**Bucket calves show in the Bucket Calf class for Showmanship (which is “blow and go” also).
