WPX Checklist

“The Bible”
The binder that my family calls “The Bible” is home to health papers, pedigrees, PQA cards and so much more. This is the first and last thing we check for before leaving the house. Without “The Bible,” I couldn’t make it past check in to even unload let alone make it to the show ring.
Show Box
Show box or treasure chest? After years of showing, my show box is a mobile, mini show barn that never gets unpacked. I don’t know where anything is placed in there but I know after a little digging I’ll find it. From towels to screwdrivers, safety pins to electrolytes, the show box has everything I’ll ever need. Need a brush? Check the show box. Need a number clip? Check the show box. The best part about pig shows is you’re surrounded by family and friends so if I don’t have what [ … ]
Show Ring Style
By: Maddie Caldwell
Ever since I was a little girl, my grandparents instilled into me the value of first impressions. Whether it was being sure to greet someone with a smile and a firm handshake, or dressing well to display professionalism and class, they always made sure that I would be prepared for any situation.

In preparation for shows this summer, I hope that these tips help you navigate through the ever-growing shopping platform.
Dark jeans are the way to go.
In comparison to stone washed or light shade jeans, darker colors display professionalism and hide excess dirtiness. Also, be sure to steer clear of any jeans with [ … ]
Ready, Set, Judge

There is no feeling that compares to the moment you turn around and face a class of four. You scrutinize each up and down and evaluate the good and the bad. You pace back and forth and frantically scribble down on that steno page. You decide on your placing, develop your reasoning and prepare yourself to defend your placings in the reasons room. It comes down to all the preparation and hard work you’ve invested. Whether you bust a class or come off the floor clean, this is the world of livestock evaluation.
For many hog enthusiasts like myself, the World Pork Expo is one of the most exciting events of the summer. Between walking tacos, endless pork meals, quality hogs and numerous youth member activities, there’s something for everyone at World Pork Expo, including a livestock judging contest. If you’re new to the world of livestock [ … ]
