2018 National Show Fullblood Doe Champion Drive in memory of Minda Witt Minda Witt, along with husband Randy, owned and operated Witt's Rio Vista, Lamar, CO. The entire family was fully engaged in the production of quality, ABGA registered Boer goats.

Her love and passion for the breed was brought home by her son's decision to show 4-H market wethers. From those first brown headed goats, an ambitious and progressive FB breeding program was born.

Minda's tireless efforts were rewarded in the growth of her herd's size, quality, and reputation. She was a highly competitive exhibitor who enjoyed going up against the best. "It's no fun beating ugly goats." More than that, Minda enjoyed the friendship and fellowship gained at ABGA shows and others in the industry.

Minda brought a high degree of integrity and credibility to any association, friendship, and competition she engaged in.

She was a sponge for information, keeping meticulous volumes as reference for herself, and freely sharing with others.

Her true joy was found helping others, in particular youth. Young people starting a breeding program or buying wethers could count on Minda's honesty, information, and support to help ensure success.

Minda was a strong competitor, but took equal pleasure in the success and achievements of others. She loved and promoted the Boer breed with passion, integrity, compassion, and sportsmanship to the highest degree. It is in this spirit that we dedicate this drive to the memory of Minda Witt.

Robert Duke Ambassador to the Breed Robert Duke of Utopia, Texas, is one of the most influential individuals in the Boer Goat industry. This humble rancher doesn't credit himself with shaping today's meat goat industry. But, don't let his humility fool you. Duke helped bring in some of the country's first live Boer Goats and worked in leadership roles in the association.

"The first Boer goats came in through Poland," Duke said. "Buck #29 was one of the best in the breed." The first imports were only identified by numbers. These numbers are recalled easily for Duke. "Number 1021, 1032 and 1020 were some of the best imported embroys," he said.

Over the years, Duke was influential in the industry as a rancher and as president of the American Boer Goat Association from 2003-2006. During this critical timeframe, the association was educating the public about this newly imported breed.

"During the first years, we had some great county agents, breeders and advocates." Duke recalls the many seminars put on by the industry in hopes of educating the public about the insutry as a whole. Duke said it was just as important in 2003 as it is in 2018 to look at the industry from all sides.

"Understanding that the meat goat is just that -- a meat goat, is so important to [producers]," he said. Duke said that the rugid, hearty Boer goat is alive and well on many ranches. "I run about 500 head and they can be very hearty animals," continued Duke.

It is this heartiness is one of the characteristics that Duke said that our future generations must continue to strive for. "In order for the goats to survive long-term as an industry, they have to be able to survive in all types of terrains," he said.

With goat ranches ranging from 2 to 2,000 acres, the Boer goat must be bred to survive in all types of environments. "We changed a lot of characteristics about the Boer goat, both good and bad," he said, "But, one thing we've managed to keep is the amount of meat on the carcass."

One of Duke's biggest concerns for the industry is the ability to look outside of the showring or the pasture.

"We have to look at the industry as a whole," he said. "While there may be some lines that are bred specifically for the show ring, there will always be some who ultimately hit the slaughter house. And, selling by the pound instead of by the number, like Spanish goats, is critical to the survivability of the meat goat producer."

2018 National Show Buck Champion Drive in memory of Don Smith A name that is synonymous to the Boer goat industry and the success of Boers in the United States is Don Smith. Don Smith of Talpa, Texas, has been referred to as the "Grandfather" of the Boer industry here in the States. O The Smith Ranch began as a sheep ranch in the late '30s and then diversified into Cutting horses, cattle and goats in later years. Don recalls that the shearing crews always wanted to have goats to slaughter during the shearing season. That was one of the primary reasons that goats were kept on the ranch. As time progressed, Don began to see a need for a meat goat in the United States that exceeded the quality and size of the existing Spanish goats. He began to crossbreed dairy goats and Spanish goats to develop a meatier goat that not only was larger in size, but was also faster growing. In the late '80s, a friend of Don's at Texas A&M visited South Africa to investigate the Angora goat. He came back and told Don of this meat goat that he saw while in South Africa called the Boer goat. Don became the first person from the Northern Hemisphere to lay eyes on a Boer goat in the quarantine pens in New Zealand.

Once Boer goats were introduced to the States, interest soared. Don supported and fostered the new industry. Don was the first person to ever judge a Boer goat show in the United States. This show was held in Lampasas, Texas, prior to a sale hosted by Jurgen Schulz. At this show, Don crowned the great buck Krugerrand the champion, making him the first Boer champion buck in the United States.

Don has been an approved judge since the beginning of Boer goat shows. Don's prior judging experience with sheep and horses has provided him with the knowledge and skill to be one of the best Boer goat judges in the U.S. Don has judged Boer goat shows in all parts of North America - from California to Quebec.

Don has supported many new Boer breeders as well as established breeders over the years. Don's ranch sale in Talpa, which was usually held in late August, is the longest-running Boer goat production sale in the industry. Don has continuously strived to produce and market exceptional animals to enhance and better the Boer breed.

Don Smith is a true Texas gentleman. Many Boer goat enthusiasts regard Don as one of the most renowned breeders of Boer goats in the United States. Don was the first person to win both the International Boer Goat Association and the American Boer Goat Association National Championship Doe titles in 2001. In 2001, he was the first person to win both National Shows in the Champion Pair of Does class.

Don went on to repeat winning the National Championship Doe title for both associations again in 2003. This was the first time that this feat (winning both National Doe titles) had been repeated. Many have said that Don Smith consistently produces the top does in the industry as well as some of the best bucks. - Edited from original print (written by Chris A.
