WIN, WIN, WIN

from Dickinson Cattle Co. (DCC)

It is a great joy to breed and raise cattle that win shows. It is great to see your grand kids out there in the ring working at being professional show people -- its high energy -- electrifying! However, even above that is to see many others showing, winning at the highest levels with cattle DCC has bred, planned and appreciated -- is even more stimulating. The joy of owning great genetics is a good feeling.

This past weekend at the Houston Stock Show and Rodeo, Winnin' Kid was Grand Champion in Texas' toughest competition. He was shown by Sara Jennings and owned by Kathy Palladini of Junction, Texas. Winnin' Kid was sired by Joe Kid, a DCC bull sired by Jubal Jangler out of Jester. His dam was Winnin' Streak by Clear Win, also raised by DCC.

OL Likely, just an hour before, won Grand Champion Female at Houston. She was exhibited by Lainey Lampier and owned by John & Brenda Oliver of Malakoff, Texas. Her sire was the DCC bull, Clear Play by Clear Win out of Play The Jam by Jamakizm.

OL Outplay was Grand Champion Bull at the recent Fort Worth Stock Show, also a son of Clear Play, shown by Mark Oliver and Lainey Lampier with the loot. Fecal remover, John Oliver behind bull.

OL Oversweet, with John and Mark Oliver won Grand Champion Female at the State Fair of Texas two years in a row, 2016 and 2017. OL Oversweet is sired AI by the DCC bull Over Kill.

Carla Payne, head showing in back, exhibited this young bull, TL Revolt, to Reserve Senior Champion Bull at the Houston Livestock Show. He is a son of Clear Play -- how about that? Look at the bone and substance on this heavy muscled guy. Everyone says this is the way the future is headed, not just horn, but horn and lots of thickness, bigger cattle, quicker. This is what shows are supposed to do -- identify the best and most valued cattle.

Dickinson Cattle Co would like to extend a heart felt congratulations to great clients like Kathy, Carla and the Olivers for using DCC genetics and having the wisdom to present them in strong traffic at their best. The Championship awards prove their superior skills and planning. When you see them at the shows, say hello. Sincere congratulations from DCC.
