EDITOR’S NOTES IF THIS, THEN THAT Conditional logic. Something I was introduced to in fourth grade and thought it was useless information. It turned out to be something that served a great purpose in my work life working with a program extension that formats text from a spreadsheet automatically as you import it into a page layout program. It is entirely based on if, then statements. These statements come into play as you make plans for winter, or for processsing, or even for a marketing plan. For example, if it is windy, then body temperature is affected at higher temps. Another step would be if wet hair + wind, then cold effect is much greater. Or simply, if my region has cold temperatures, then I need to make sure my cattle have windbreaks available. For beef, it may be “If I want to sell on the hoof, then I can use nonUSDA processors” or “If I want to sell across state lines, then I must use a USDA processor.” For a marketing plan: “If I want to remove my culls, then I may want to offer beef for sale.” or “If I want to sell at a consignmentsale, then I need to choose one of the best examples of my breeding program to present.” This is very basic, but sometimes it is a good starting point to see steps ahead of you when you have a goal or option you’re considering. Another blanket statement: “If no one knows who I am, then they will not have any trust in my program.” That’s perhaps the easiest one to remedy. Attend some Longhorn functions such as sales, shows or affiliate gatherings and interact with fellow breeders. If you are new to the breed (under 4 years) you can reach out to me and do a “Meet the Members” questionaire to be published in Trails Magazine along with a photo introducing yourself to our membership. Attend community events in your area with a hat or shirt with your ranch/farm name - one with Longhorns on it is event better - and don’t hesitate to engage with people who ask about your Longhorns. Participate in association or affiliate photo contests in order to get photos of your animals in front of people. Try your hand at futurities and see where your animals stand in the eyes of peer judges. Just keep in mind that at each step of building a reputation and promoting your program that each decision you make, each action you take, you want to lead to a postive and effective outcome. So read your Trails, research online and talk to experienced breeders to help develop strong conditional logic to achieve success.

Dave Evans Breeder of the Year Award
Elmer Parker Lifetime Achievement Award
Dale Metz Sanger, Texas
Jimmy Jones Greenville, Alabama
My wife and I first met Mr. Metz at the 2020 Legacy Sale. At the time the ink was still wet on our application to the TLBAA and we were completely bewildered on how we were to begin our journey in the longhorn industry. Had it not been for the advice Dale provided at such a pivotal time in the formation of our brand, I can honestly say we wouldn’t be where we are regarding our fervor to participate as stewards of the longhorn breed. What I admire most about the way Dale conducts himself as an ambassador of the TLBAA has to do mostly with the way he has constructed his herd. Rather than simply purchasing $100,000 brood cows, Dale has done the research, studied the pedigrees, and has educated himself on how to produce superior animals from less than superior genetics. By doing this, he has proven that anyone with the desire to become a serious breeder can have success regardless of their budget. More than that, he participates as an exhibitor, sponsors sales and futurities in and out of his home state, and is often seen purchasing donation heifers during large auctions. Similarly, Dale has taken his personal time (often at his own expense) to mentor and educate those, like us, who are new in the industry on how to avoid common costly mistakes that could eventually lead to dissatisfaction of the breeding process as a whole. In these actions, Dale is doing his part to solidify the success of longhorn cattle for future generations. I cannot think of a better example on how new breeders should conduct themselves for both, their heightened enjoyment of the breeding process, but more importantly for the continued success of the longhorn breed than the example Mr. Metz has sets by his everyday actions. When I think of what boxes must be ticked in order to qualify for the Dave Evans award, I firmly believe Mr. Metz is a perfect candidate for this level of recognition. H

Jimmy Jones, Horseshoe J Longhorns, has been actively engaged in the longhorn industry since the 1980’s. He is a genetic genius as he has devoted his life to studying and applying longhorn genetic strategies in order to better the entire breed. He has created numerous outstanding longhorns, both bulls and cows, including buy not limited to, Concealed Weapon, Horseshoe J Example (100” Tip to Tip), Horseshoe J Important and the widely known triple twist Horseshoe J Journey. His animals have won countless awards over the years in both the Horn Show Case and Futurity Events. His genius for breeding outstanding longhorns is superseded only by his humility, honesty and willingness to help other breeders succeed, while seeking no recognition for himself. He has assisted many new breeders by sharing knowledge and time. He has nominated others for awards when he was equally deserving as those he nominated. Jimmy is highly respected in the longhorn industry as a mentor and as a successful breeder. He has participated in numerous bull partnerships with other breeders in order to continue to preserve, improve and promote the breed; much like Elmer Parker, after whom this Lifetime Achievement Award is named. Jimmy’s passion for longhorns has been a commitment of hard work, “on a shoestring budget” (his words), constant study and research of pedigrees for the betterment of the entire industry. But first and foremost he has lived a life of service to others without seeking anything in return. His selflessness likely began as a young United States Marine who began serving his country in Vietnam and has continued without ceasing. Jimmy Jones and the Horseshoe J brand is iconic in the longhorn world. There is no one more deserving, more dedicated and more passionate about the preservation of the Texas Longhorn breed. If you don’t believe it, just have a conversation with him and let me know at the end of that two or three hour event! You will have a renewed faith in humanity.H
TEXAS LONGHORN TRAILS
Rex & Sherese Glendenning Frisco, Texas Rex and Sherese Glendenning have been breeding Texas Longhorns for almost 40 years. In 1986 they bred GF G-Man, a bull who is in most of today’s industry leader’s pedigrees. They then bread GF Heavy Hitter, the first bull to hit 80 inches tip to tip. It all started with four longhorns in 1984, they immediately fell in love with them and their hear has grown to be one of the largest in the country. Glendenning Farms became the home to the iconic Drag Iron to bring more color, size, body and horns to their herd. Not only have Rex and Sherese lifted the longhorn industry with the passion they have for the breed, they attend, participate and sponsor most of the TLBAA longhorn events. With so much passion, love and commitment to the Texas Longhorn Breed and also the love and support they show to the industry, we feel they are well deserving of this award. H
Jack Phillips Award Scot and Jodie O’Bryan Belvidere, South Dakota In the last few years that I have been involved in the Texas Longhorn breed and the Great Plains Texas Longhorn Association I have not seen anyone work harder to promote the breed and/or other people in the breed than Scot and Jodie O’Bryan. They have been and still are the driving force behind the two world qualifying shows held in Rapid City, South Dakota. Scot and Jodie were and still are an integral part of putting together a market for Texas Longhorn cattle here in the north central part of the United States. They make sure if a kid wants to show a Texas Longhorn, there is a Texas longhorn to show. They are firm believers in getting younger people involved with the breed. “Without getting younger people involved, you won’t have a breed, you won’t have an association, period!” as Scot would say. Scot will load up his pickup and haul kids to the Denver Stock Show. Jodie works her tail off to make sure the two world qualifying shows go off without a hitch, and the Top Hand Sale runs as smooth as possible. They have great all around cattle, period. They can compete in the show ring, sale ring, bull market, meat market and rodeo arena. Promoting the breed any which way they can. That’s what it all boils down to, promoting the breed, and people involved with the breed any way possible. This is just a short number of reasons of why I am nominating Scot and Jodie O’Bryan for the Jack Phillips Award. H
Rodney Cooper Scone, Australia NSW We look beyond the US Borders to find this year’s nomination for the Jack Phillips Award. This individual represents sincere dedication, ongoing support and continually works to promote an active affiliate and the Texas Longhorn breed in Australia. Rodney Cooper, Koorooa Longhorns, has strived to make their national show in Australia one of the best, including a very successful sale weekend. Their show continues to expand each year, and what’s unique about this gentleman is he also participates, he isn’t just one of the organizers, he is in the ring as a showman and doing well with his cattle. As President of the TLA, he along with his directors, have innovative ideas in promotion of the breed and for attracting new members. He works diligently to ensure that youth members are valued and recognized and that sponsors are appreciated. Their youth program has grown, with Rodney and his daughter Adelaide as great ambassadors for the youth. It isn’t an easy job keeping the breed promoted outside of the U.S. and Rodney is involved year round in a variety of promotional projects. It’ time to recognize those members who work selflessly for the breed and keep our TLBAA affiliates active. Rodney Coop from Scone, Australia NSW is one of those individuals. H

TLBAA SPECIAL AWARDS CONT’D what genetics work with what animals. He came up MEL RALEY RISING STAR AWARD and with his own new ideas as to who would do well being
Wayne & Joanna Manning Lipan, Texas I would like to present Wayne and Joanna Manning, M7 Longhorns, for the Mel Raley Rising Star Award. I met them in 2021 when they came to my ranch to search for their first longhorns. Their enthusiasm to buy and clearly invest themselves into becoming serious breeders was amazingly apparent from the start. It was obvious to me they weren’t going to start off walking, they were going to be in a dead sprint. I watched Wayne spend countless hours, for weeks on end, studying successful programs
bred together, to forge his own mark on the industry and build his own brand. Those efforts have seriously paid off with his animals being the total package of confirmation, color, disposition, and horn. In a very short period of time, Wayne has become someone I consider as knowledgeable as anyone in the industry when it comes to genetics. Wayne and Joanna have also been very active on every level of the industry. They participate in futurities and attend almost every event put on by the TLBAA. You will find them supporting other breeders by attending sales all over the country. They step up and donate to the many causes the industry asks for help with. Their animals are the complete package and so are they. I can’t think of anyone that fits the criteria, or is more deserving, of the Mel Raley Rising Star Award any better than Wayne and Joanna. H

Herd Health
Windbreaks and
Shelter for
Fall-Calving Herds Photo courtesy of Walter Hance
In climates where wind chill can be an issue during colder months, planning ahead for winter weather can save stockmen money (in reduced feed costs, reduced illness and health costs, and less loss of body condition—and better growth for young animals). When cattle are stressed by wind and cold, they seek shelter. If there are no natural windbreaks available, stockmen can provide artificial wind barriers to give protection from wind and drifting snow. Dr. Joseph Darrington, Ag Engineer, South Dakota State University, says shelter is important for fall-calving herds, depending on when they are calving. “This could be anywhere from September through November. The later the calving season goes, the more likely you might run into winter storms. There are two main types of windbreaks-- natural shelter such as trees or planted shelterbelts, and constructed windbreaks. One problem with a shelterbelt of trees is that they don’t have much foliage in winter/spring to stop the wind,” he says. “If you plant a shelterbelt windbreak, it’s best to have a couple rows of tall trees and a couple rows of smaller trees. If you need the windbreak in the fall, there is a lot of vegetation still under the trees during early storms and you may not need to include evergreens in your tree planting.” If you want more protection during winter and spring, it helps to have some evergreens because the other trees will have lost their leaves. Constructed windbreaks are generally made with boards (often placed vertically), leaving spaces between them rather than a solid barrier. “The target poros-
ity, according to several studies, is from 20% porosity (open) and 80% solid, down to 65 or 70% solid. If you have more than 35% porosity (and 65% solid) or closer to 50-50, you lose some of the benefits of the windbreak; you’ll have more air velocity coming through rather than being pushed up and over,” explains Darrington. “The reason you don’t want a solid windbreak is because it significantly reduces wind speed right next to the windbreak and if there is snow with the wind it tends to dump a lot more of it right behind the windbreak.” This cuts down on the protected area for cattle to bed or stand behind the windbreak. It’s better to have a porous windbreak, so you don’t end up with a big snowdrift behind it, reducing the shelter area. “With 30% open and 70% solid you can expect the protected zone behind the windbreak to extend 10 to 15 and sometimes up to 20 times the height of the windbreak. The protected area is always estimated based on the height of a windbreak. An example would be a 10 foot tall fence slowing wind for about 100 to 150 feet behind it. If it’s a straight windbreak and the wind is coming head on, perpendicular to it, this creates a triangular protected zone behind it,” he says. Windbreaks are usually constructed to face prevailing wind direction. If the wind tends to come from several directions some people create a curved/cornered windbreak. “In our region the predominant cold wind comes from the northwest, about 60 to 70% of the time. The best position for a windbreak here would be to run it from southeast to northwest, to be perpendicular to
If building a shelter for fall calves, be sure to keep fresh bedding to cutdown on contamination issues such as scours.

If planting shelterbreaks, you should include some evergreens.
the prevailing wind. If ranchers want a larger protected area, they sometimes run another windbreak from northwest to southeast, creating an arrowhead shape pointing to north. This gives the greatest protection,” he explains. “When planting shelterbelts we situate them north-south and east-west. With constructed windbreaks or planted windbreaks they have their corner in the northwest.” Some ranchers also create shelters with roofs, especially for the baby calves to get into, so they can stay dry as well as out of the wind. “According to USDA studies, a young calf’s thermal-neutral zone (where it is comfortable and can do well) is about 50 to 68 degrees Fahrenheit. They can do fine below that temperature if they are out of the wind,” he says. After the newborn calf is dry and has nursed (gaining “fuel” to stay warm from the colostrum, which contains a higher level of fat and energy than regular milk) he can handle colder temperatures. “While that young calf is growing, as long as the mother is producing a good quantity of milk, calves can handle very cold temperatures. They just consume
more milk—to create heat energy to keep warm. The trade-off in cold weather (below the lower critical temperature of their thermal-neutral zone) is that the extra milk they consume goes for maintenance and body heat rather than growth.” They can stay healthy and be comfortable during the cold, but won’t grow as fast. Thus one of the potential benefits of providing protection from wind is that the cows and calves won’t need as much extra food just to keep warm and the calves will grow more. “Shelters for young calves will be helpful, especially if temperatures drop quickly in the fall. A three-sided shed works well, with the opening facing to the south—away from the cold winds.” This also gets some morning sun in those calf houses. “Make sure you keep fresh bedding in shelters, and have some vents high on the side wall, end wall or roof ridge to allow for some ventilation,” he says. For baby calves, make sure shelters stay clean, to avoid contamination from scours; it helps if the shelters are on skids and portable. Then you can regularly move them to clean ground and put in fresh bedding. “You can figure about 10 calves per shed, so you should provide enough sheds for the group—and move them around as needed. Calf shelters need 12 to 15 square feet per animal,” he says. The bedding doesn’t get as dirty as if would they were more crowded. “It may seem strange giving baby calves more space for their size than we do for confined finishing beef animals, but with scours being a problem in calves it pays to give them as much space and clean bedding as is economical.” Congregating the calves (and possibly concentrating contamination from scours) is the downside of shelters, but this can be alleviated greatly by moving the shelters around and putting in fresh bedding. The calving cows generally don’t need more shelter than brush/shelterbelts or windbreaks, but it helps to have a shed or barn where you could bring one in if you have to assist a birth. “It’s nicer for the cow (and newborn) and the human. It’s no fun to deal with a calving problem out in the wind or sleet, with your hands freezing,” he says. Wetness accentuates wind chill for cattle, making windbreaks a necessity. Cattle hair coats are very good
Constructed windbreaks should not be a solid barrier, rather have open spaces.

Herd Health insulation against the cold when the hair is dry, standing up fluffy with air spaces between the hairs. “When the hair is wet and flattens down, it changes their thermal-neutral zone. A cow with full winter coat that’s wet has the same insulation capacity as if she merely had a summer hair coat,” says Darrington. “This is one of the things we saw with the Atlas storm a few years ago. One of the reasons we lost so many animals in that storm was that it rained on them first and then got cold. Their hair was wet and they were not able to stay warm. It didn’t get terribly cold; it just got cold enough that they couldn’t maintain body heat without the insulation of a dry hair coat.” They were chilled too much, too long, and couldn’t survive. “That same storm, if cattle hadn’t gotten wet just before temperatures dropped, they would have been able to handle it. Calves are even more sensitive and vulnerable. If you know the weather will be wet (rain or rain changing to snow) and then drop in temperature, they definitely need shelter to keep from becoming chilled.”
Often after a storm, the weather clears up and temperature drops. Calf shelters make a huge difference because those babies can stay dry. This is better than just a windbreak. “If cattle are in a pasture with access to trees so they can get out of the rain, this may be adequate, if the foliage is still there.” In some regions fall calving has drier weather and drier, cleaner ground for calving than spring calving, depending on how early in the spring the cows are calving. February, March and April can often be stormy as well as muddy, depending on the region, though there can be occasional fall storms, as well. There are challenges to every calving season and a person has to fit the season to what best fits their own situation. In the South, hot weather can be a challenge. “In some climates, windbreaks and shelters can be a useful tool for winter management, especially for fallcalving cows, to help protect young calves from winter storms. The important thing is to manage them, just like you manage anything else on your operation,” he says.
Wet coats greatly increase vulnerability to wind chill.
CONSTRUCTING WINDBREAKS “If you build a windbreak 6 to 10 feet tall you need to set the posts deeply enough to hold it, or build it on skids for portability. If you use 1-by-6 inch boards (which are actually 51/2 inches wide and ¾ inch thick) the spacing would be 1 ½ to 2 inches apart. This would be 7 ½ inches on center (from the center of one board to the center of the next) for spacing,” says Darrington. “Some producers make solid windbreaks using vertical metal roofing. A 30-inch wide piece of roofing metal is enough space for calves to nestle right against it and be completely protected. You need a bigger gap, however, to create adequate porosity, so snow won’t collect right behind it. For cows, these types of windbreaks are a little less effective because air speed coming through those larger cracks is enough that if they are right next to it they may still get cold and are not protected as much, but once you get one a little distance away from the windbreak, there is decreased velocity of air. The calves, however, can be very snug next to those 30-inch sections so you might be able to get the benefits of both (solid windbreak plus some porosity). These are also faster to build, with fewer total pieces to put vertically. The spacing, if it’s a 30-inch piece of roofing metal, would be 5 or 6 inch gaps between them, or about 36 inches on center,” he explains. Portable windbreaks are handy when rotating pastures or strip grazing fall and winter pastures, moving the windbreaks when cattle are moved. “The main thing for portable windbreaks is to make the base heavy enough and wide enough that they don’t tip over in the wind. Or you need to stake it down with two foot lengths of rebar or T-posts to help stabilize it,” he says. You can make these in sections so they can be moved with a tractor—either pulled around or picked up with a loader and repositioned as needed. If you have to take them very far, you could lift them onto a flatbed truck to haul to the next pasture, making sure you strap them down securely for hauling. 20 | November 2023

Marketing
By Myra Basham
Choose Your Spend Wisely 10 Things to Consider When Making Marketing Decisions While there is a myriad of ways to get exposure for your breeding program without a lot of expense, ultimately you’re going to have to invest a little capital to achieve the best results. While some may think this is just a ploy to get more Trails Magazine ads, that’s not the missive. (Although if you’d like one I’d be more than happy to oblige). The point is, how can you direct the money you have to spend to be the most successful in selling Longhorns. A few points to ponder: 1) Invest in nutrition. Yes, Longhorns are hardy and tend to have a different build than typical beef cattle. However, they should have the proper nutrition to have a healthy glow and not present as gaunt. Proper nutrition not only makes for better calves, it makes for more productive females and fertile bulls. Buyers can see that the animals are well cared for and there is less concern about the health of the animals. Healthy shine sells better than “maintained”. 2) Invest in genetics. While sire and dam does not guarantee a calf that will sell, it can certainly increase the odds. Look for genetics that have the reproductive traits you desire, as well as the traits that appeal to the market you are targeting. 3) Don’t feed culls. This is more of a “money saved is money earned” item. Don’t let your heart cause you to be unable to improve your program or have a marketing budget. The minute you see a heritable defect or something that will affect productivity or safety, remove that Longhorn from the table (or put it on it). Throwing feed and vaccines, etc. into an animal you know is not an asset to your goals takes money away that could be used to improve your herd. 4) Plan your marketing. Don’t groan. Plan can be as simple as saying “Where and how do I want to sell my cattle and what will help facilitate that” and then jot down some ideas, look at costs, spending budget and a calendar. If you need help with that process and you know some of the outlets you want to use for marketing efforts, most have representatives that can help direct you to the best methods and times of year to achieve your goals. 5) Hire a photographer. All of your digital and print marketing efforts from social media to your website to print materials will be astronomically more
productive with good photographs. While everyone can take a photo that is the correct technical quality for its end use, not everyone can capture a photo of an animal that needs no editing to present at its best. Trying to save money by doing your own background removal or playing with lighting and color can give you an image that makes people question what is real and what is missing or added from your photo. The new AI tools available do not handle Longhorns well, especially with a tree line behind them. Horns and legs especially tend to get really rough. If you do have decent photos but want the backgrounds removed…see Number 5. 6) Work with a graphic artist. When do you need a graphic artist? When you need animals removed from backgrounds, want great looking ads that you can have multi-purposed across print and digital platforms and, in some instances, help planning the most cost-effective attack to achieve your marketing goals, a graphic artist can help. It pays to reach out to several for pricing and ask to see samples of work relative to the materials you wish to have produced. Ask for pricing for multipurpose graphics that can be used across print and social. Printers and print publications will often have staff designers that will work with you at low or no additional cost. Website companies have them available to help as well. 7) Put signage along your property with website or phone number. If there is any part of your property that can be seen from a road, put something up saying that you sell Longhorns and at the very least put a website or phone number for people to be able to reach out. An all-weather banner big enough to read as one drives by can be had relatively cheaply $35-$50 many places online.

Marketing – continued from pg. 24 8) Update/revamp/launch a website. An attractive, well organized, easy to read website is an invaluable tool these days. If you have one that’s neglected, update it. If you haven’t ventured into the website arena yet, now’s the time. While there are lots of DIY options out there, this is a tool that investing a bit more to get professional help can really pay off. 9) If you consign, make it one you’d buy if it fit your program goals. You may simply have a bull or a female that you have ample genetics from that its simply time to go or your program is changing direction. These are great reasons to take a good animal to a consignment sale. However, if there is anything about the animal that makes you start a sentence with “I hate…” then maybe reconsider. If the calving record is sketchy, the udder is undesirable, the attitude is bad or any number of other complaints… choose beef or the regular sale barn over gaining a reputation for poor quality consignments. 10) Attend events. While travel can be expensive, if you are operating your Longhorn program as a business then that is a business expense. You may choose to participate in shows, futurities, consignment sales or simply just attend to network and learn more. This industry thrives on networking and while ads and social posts are great, letting people know who you are face-to-face is a great asset in building interest in what you are producing.

Longhorn Beef
First Steps to Processing Your Beef Find A Processor Before you load up that first Longhorn to eat or to have beef to sell, the first step is to locate a processor. There are two type of inspections available to be able to package meat for resale, USDA and State. A USDA inspection allows you to sell meat anywhere in the United States, while a state certified inspection only allows you to sell within the state the inspection was conducted in. The USDA has a very detailed resource available on their website, www.fsis.usda.gov, called the Meat, Poultry and Egg Product Inspection Directory. The screenshot below shows the web page and the wealth of information provided. There are options to download several data files and
28 | November 2023
references as well as a searchable map that you can use criteria ranging from your state to type of animal you are slaughtering, type of inspection and more. This reference pertains to USDA inspected facilities. You may also reference the tab on the left side for State Inspection Programs to see which states offer their own inspections. Currently there are 29 states offering state-level inspection including: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. This does not mean the other states have no processors, it just means all inspections in those states are USDA certified. Do your homework, call and visit several facilities. The phone call will thin out ones that do not wish to handle Longhorn cattle or may be so busy that only processing one or two every now and then is going to make it difficult to get your order through in a timely manner and reasonable cost. The visit in person is to ensure that there is indeed an inspector available, to verify for yourself that this a facility you feel comfortable with and for you to ask final questions about cost, limitations on horn sizes accepted and whether or not they will allow the Longhorn to be brought on the floor to be put down or they have to put them down in your trailer. Your costs will vary based on how you are selling your beef. When discussing cost, the following are terms you should be familiar with: Live Weight: Actual Weight of the animal on the hoof before it is processed. Hanging Weight: Weight of the beef as it will hang in the cooler with head, hide, feet, organs and blood removed. (average 62% of live weight) Cut and Wrap Yield or Package Weight (average 76%): Actual weight of all the cut and wrapped packages of meat that will go in

the freezer. Varies depending on type of cuts (boneless vs bone-in) roasts versus ground, etc. Grass fed tends to have higher carcass yield as more fat is discarded form grain-fed. Can vary greatly. Live weight x dress percentage x carcass yield = cut and wrap yield 1,000 lbs x 62% x 76% = 471 pounds of meat
Ways to Sell Your Beef Live animal – Selling the animal in whole or in shares before processing. Allows beef to be processed without USDA or state inspection as long as the person paying for the processing is the owner of the animal and is using the beef personally or giving it to family or friends for no charge. Packages will be stamped NOT FOR RESALE. There may be multiple owners of one animal so each gets a share or portion of the meat. Whole beef – When one person takes the whole animal. Normally sold by hanging weight or live weight. Halves (sides) – The carcass is split down the middle head to tail. Typically sold by hanging weight. Quarters – If one buys a quarter it is normally half of a side. The whole side is processed into cuts and then those are divided evenly since the front and back meat
differs so greatly in content. Typically sold by hanging weight. Cuts and Ground – You choose to process and package the meat as ground beef or individual cuts to resell. They must be state or USDA inspected based on where you are selling them. Sold by the pound based on type of cut. Custom orders – There are countless ways in which you can allow people to order their beef. You can allow them to choose side or quarter with a general list of what they usually get provided. You may allow people to choose specific cuts and then you can grind or make cuts from what’s left. If your method of selling involves you paying for the processing and taking money from buyers, then you must get it processed at a USDA or State Certified processor. If you sell it on the hoof and then the new owner pays the processor and fills out the order form, the new owner will determine how it is cut and wrapped without the need for state or USDA inspection.

Message
Thankful, blessed, and grateful are common themes for November, and it’s no different in the longhorn community. November brings all these feelings to the surface for so many, so what are you most thankful for? For me, I am thankful for the opportunities I’ve experienced while showing Longhorns, I realize that’s a broad statement, and so many of us feel the same. Specifically, I am thankful for the long truck rides with my brothers all over the southern states, learning how to change a trailer tire on the side of a busy road and celebrating success with friends. I am thankful that so many weekends have been filled with time in the wash racks, circling the arena and napping with my cows. So many of us have been blessed by the kindness of others in the TLBAA and I am proud to be part of an organization that gives back. If you don’t already know about the TLBT service project for this year, reach out to one of the TLBT Officers or Directors and ask! We hope that you’re able to help the TLBT reach our goal and share our blessings with kids in need. I am very grateful for the support of the TLBT community, I wouldn’t be where I am today without all of y’all! Happy Thanksgiving! Sincerely,
Allison Lowrie 2023 - 2024 TLBT President

What have you learned from showing Longhorns? - Showing longhorns has taught me that I can achieve my goals as long as I work hard and put my mind to it. I think there are a lot of things to take away from this amazing experience, but that was the one I found the most important. What/Who has been your biggest influence while showing Texas Longhorn Cattle? - Several wonderful people have influenced me throughout the years. To name a few, in no certain order, Sierra Wood Gonzales, Halle Hance and Megan Bush. I am very thankful for their willingness to help, be a great friend and someone I can always confide in. Thank you to these ladies and several more folks for believing and supporting me. It is because of them and other like them that I think youth, like myself, are able to achieve our goals.

What have you learned from showing Longhorns? - Some things I have learned from showing longhorn cattle are responsibility in caring for my animals, to never give up just because of a bad show and I am learning good herd management skills. What/Who has been your biggest influence while showing Texas Longhorn Cattle? - My mom and Popper (Rodney Mahaffey) have been my biggest influences while showing. My mom has helped me with some showmanship and Popper got me started with my first longhorns and always listens to my ideas about breeding and answers my questions too.

Alumni Spotlight What year were you TLBT President? - 2001-2002 How has being a TLBT leader impacted your career and life? - Being a TLBT leader helped me get out of my comfort zone and assume a leadership role and made me a Christopher Schaper better communicator with my fellow showman. What do you do now? -I am a managing partner of Campeche Cattle LLC. We run about 200 commercial cows and 50 registered Beefmaster cows. We specialize in raising high quality replacement cattle with the comerical market as well as the registered cattle market. What would be your advice towards the current TLBT generation for the future? - My best advice to any young person in the animal agricultural industry, is to set goals for what you would like to achieve, seek out people who are achieving success in the same field you are striving toward and try your best to learn from them. Ask as many questions as you can think of to those individuals and do your best to soak all of their knowledge in. Another piece of advice is that a loss is only a loss if you don’t learn from it and make yourself better. I learned far more from loosing in the arena that I ever did winning.

GREAT PLAINS TEXAS LONGHORN ASSOCIATION ASSOCIATI ON
This month’s report is written by our Secretary/Treasurer, Shawn Tobin.
The Great Plains Texas Longhorn Association is working hard towards our future goals to GORDON HOWIE fulfill our mission statement of providing PRESIDENT youth opportunities, promotion of the Texas GKHOWIE@YAHOO.COM Longhorn breed, the promotion of the health and nutrition benefits of Texas Longhorn beef and helping producers market animals and/or beef from their programs. The GPTLA is in the process of holding an election for a slate of officers to install at our next membership meeting. It will be held Saturday, February 3rd, 2024, at 11:30 AM MST, in Rapid City, South Dakota, during the 65th Annual Black Hills Stock Show. All members and interested parties are welcome to attend. Not only are our members Texas Longhorn breeders and beef producers, but also lumber and building materials suppliers, insurance agents, equipment dealers, engineers, realtors, and truckers. Members include fencing and containment builders, grain farmers, horse breeders, commercial cattle producers, and other agricultural businesses. Our members come from all walks of life. With that being said, I would like to introduce myself and my wife to you all. We are Shawn and Ellen Tobin, of Tobin Longhorn Cattle Co., from Wessington Springs, South Dakota. We started raising Texas Longhorn cattle in 2020. I grew up on my folk’s place raising Texas Longhorn cattle, horses, commercial cattle, and grain. Leaving in 1996 to pursue a different path, I wound up in the trucking industry. Ellen grew up as a city kid in the farming town of Caldwell, Idaho. In 2019, we moved to Wessington Springs, South Dakota, (Shawn’s hometown). In addition to raising Texas Longhorn cattle, Shawn is an independent owner-operator in the trucking industry and a dealer for livestock handling equipment, and Ellen is the store manager for a convenience store here in town. Though a small producer, our goal is to produce animals that put on the pounds easily with feed efficiency, and a tenderness to rival any other breed of beef cattle. All the while not losing the historic characteristics of the Texas Longhorn that made itself such a unique breed in the first place. Our website can be viewed at www. tobinlonghorncattleco.com, or Tobin Longhorn Cattle Company on Facebook. Tobin Livestock Equipment can also be found on Facebook. The GPTLA membership continues to welcome new member producers (you can join regardless of where you live). We would LOVE to have you join us! $250 lifetime membership dues or $25.00 annual.

Affiliate News MOUNTAINS & PLAINS TEXAS LONGHORN ASSOCIATION NICKY ADAMS PRESIDENT BEARBABE56@EARTHLINK.NET
Well, it is a gorgeous fall here in beautiful CO! Just a few days ago we were close to 80 degrees and this weekend we will get down into the teens. We seem to go from fall to winter overnight (literally). Typical CO! It’s been a fun summer here with a few local shows. In July the ITLA affiliate here in CO hosted a fun show that they called the “Heart of the Rockies”. All cattle, whether registered ITLA or TLBAA were invited from the local area. We had a good turnout and a lot of fun with the judging done the old fashioned way on horseback. We shared a nice meal from a chuck wagon and enjoyed a good time
with fellow longhorns friends. Then came the Colorado State Fair on Labor day weekend. We had participants from as far away as TX & WY and many more local folks. As usual it was hot, but the stalling area where the cattle are is covered and the arena is air conditioned so it wasn’t too bad. It’s always fun to talk with fair-goers who have never even seen a Texas Longhorn. It’s a perfect opportunity to educate the public about our magnificent animals and they may even have an opportunity to feed or pet one. This year was special for us because it was the 50th anniversary of The Mountain and Plains Texas Longhorn affiliate. We invited some previous members who were part of the affiliate back at the beginning. They were our special guests for the event. Every year the Alan Clemmenson Memorial buckle is awarded to a member of the affiliate in recognition of their contributions to the longhorn breed and our affiliate. This year the buckle was awarded to Ron Pearson of Windy Point Longhorns in Fowler, CO. As usual, we had a great time with longhorn friends and were able to see many beautiful cattle. Our next big event will be the National Western Stock Show in Denver on the 1920th of Jan. The 2 yr old facility is beautiful on the same site as the old stockyards with many new upgrades. We hope to see friends from out of state at this joint ITLA/TLBAA event.
The East Texas Longhorn Association hosts the Kaufman Police Association Show this month in Athens, Texas, the weekend of November 17-19, the event is chaired by ETLA member Joel Norris. We encourage all who are able, to attend, the event host a silent auction in which proceeds go towards the ETLA DEBORAH BURKHAM Scholarship Fund. Entry forms have been made available and late entries are due PRESIDENT by November 4. Entry forms can be sent to you by contacting Show Chair Joel DBURK5@HOTMAIL.COM Norris by email, joelnorris.83jn@gmail.com! The 2023 Judges are Lauren Dean (ALL Youth Events), Justin Hansard (Non-Haltered and Miniature Haltered Events), and Gary Bowdoin (Haltered Events). The 2022 event hosted nearly 300 entries and was a huge success. The Henderson County Expo Center is a great facility, featuring panel stalling, several wash racks, a hoof trimmer (available Friday ONLY), as well as access to food on the grounds, and conveniently located near numerous top-rated restaurants, hotels, and shopping! The ETLA would like to begin featuring youth, breeders, and families who have been a part of our affiliate. These individuals are selected at random and have been active members attending meetings and other events hosted. The first breeder we’d like to feature is Holy Cow Ranch of Ben Wheeler, Texas.
EAST TEXAS LONGHORN ASSOCIATION
“Hello from Holy Cow Ranch in Ben Wheeler, Texas! We are a family of 9 with Tanya and Joe Mendenhall and their 4 daughters plus 3 spouses. The herd is managed by the eldest Mendenhall daughter, Meredith Kirkscey. We originally chose Longhorns in 2001 because they were a prettier option than the black cows for yard art. Lucky for us, we were right down the road from some of the top breeders in the country and we picked our first 6 cows from those herds. We had no idea what we were doing or what we had, but we loved the colors and horns. Years later, we have learned what is important in developing a herd. We strive to produce the complete cow with excellent conformation, natural maternal instincts, calm demeanor, and of course, long horns. As a small operation that prides itself on quality over quantity, we seek and appreciate the expertise of those with more knowledge and are continually looking to improve our herd. We would love to show you around and connect you with your next favorite cow, steer, or bull.” 38 | November 2023
