National Western Stock Show 2015 , Denver, Colorado USA
It was January 2015 and time to head to Denver Colorado for the fabulous National Western Stock Show. On arrival we were met with the usual cold weather and lots of snow, however it seemed to snow only at night and beautiful sunny skies during the day. What more could we ask for? The show was as exciting as ever and we were pleased to meet up with our many friends from the USA and Canada..

It was great to see that the quality of Lowlines was exceptional. We of course were particularly interested in how our bull, Yarra Ranges Jackaroo’s progeny would fare in the show ring. Would Jackaroo win the ‘Get of Sire’ (our equivalent of Sires Progeny) for the fourth year in a row? You can only imagine how thrilled we were when his progeny again dominated the show ring winning Supreme Champion Exhibit with JH Fancy Lady and the fourth year in a row for Jackaroo as ‘Get of Sire’! Congratulations particularly to Jack Husung, Brad and Julie Tummons and the other exhibiters successful with Jack’s babies.
