I don't have a "big" heard of cattle anymore, age is getting revenge I think. This is the 3rd. year in a row my steer has won grand champion at Alaska State fair here in Fairbanks. Attached picture of this years winner and 4H girl

You should be very proud! Very nice steer that has beautiful depth. I wish I could see the chest width. I can imagine it is excellent. The girl has the steer in an excellent stance keeping the lines favorable in any judges eye. The only tip I would give the girl is to straighten her legs so her posture looks better. With just that tip I bet she could win the best showman award. She did a great job finishing that steer.
 
Good deal!
Many years ago my Dad picked up a couple Limo steers in Assiniboia Sask and my brother in law hauled them to Talkeetna Alaska for his son and daughter. They went to state with them. Did very well. I would have to go to Dad's to look at pictures to see what ribbons they got.
