Cattle | Quality | Passion

Searching for your next show ring prospect can be stressful and overwhelming. There are so many options! At Scott Land and Cattle, we believe finding your next steer or heifer should be a time to look forward to. Some of our favorite childhood memories were made looking at livestock and planning for the year ahead. We're here to make your experience fun and educational, offering a stress-free environment for juniors and your families.

Part of our job is to understand the goals you want to achieve with your project and match you with a calf that fits your needs. Whether you're looking to proudly exhibit at your county fair or compete at the national level, we will serve as your guide to help you achieve your goals. If we don’t have the perfect calf for you, we'll connect you to our nationwide network of show cattle enthusiasts to find the right one for your barn. We believe showing livestock builds a foundation for success beyond the ring and creates memories that last a lifetime.

Travis and Sara Scott both grew up in the livestock industry. Their strong family values and dedication to raising quality livestock while teaching and helping young people reach their goals is what led them to raising their family in Southeastern Kansas.

To the dads in the barn and in front of the backdrop, happy Father’s Day!
From loading the trailer before sunrise to rinsing calves late at night, you do it all without seeking the spotlight.
To the show dads who teach hard work, sportsmanship, and pride in a good animal—Here’s to you today and every day! And of course a special shoutout to Travis, who goes above and beyond to not only help our children but others as well succeed in and out of the show ring!

It’s our final #WinningWednesday of the month! 🏆

And we’re wrapping things up with one of the most important skills in the ring: setting up your calf.

Leading your steer or heifer into a show-ready position is ideal. It takes time, practice, and patience at home to get there, so be sure to practice, practice, practice! The goal? Minimal use of the show stick to place feet.

A few other tips:

✅ Slightly stagger the back feet, with the show side back just a bit further.
✅ Leave 3–4 feet of space between you and the next exhibitor—no crowding, more room to show off your calf.

Keep practicing at home, stay calm in the ring, and don’t forget—it’s about progress, not perfection.

Last week, we covered halter hand placement, this week let’s talk about mastering the show stick.

✅ Keep a little distance between your elbow and the show stick. It might feel different at first, but it helps improve your posture and presence in the ring.

🖐️ When leading, hold the show stick in your left hand and keep it off the ground.

📏 On the move, your thumb should line up with your ear, and the stick should stay out in front of you, not dragging or hanging to the side.

Small adjustments like these can make a big difference when you’re under the judge’s eye!

Let’s talk halter hand placement, because how you hold the lead matters more than you think. Hand placement helps you remain in control of your calf while also being able to move around the ring with ease.

When you’re on the move:
🤏 Keep your grip close to your calf for control, but leave enough slack so they can walk naturally and comfortably.

When you’re standing still:
🔼 Choke up on the halter and always keep your palm up. This gives you better leverage to keep their head up and their frame show ring ready.

Little adjustments = big improvements in the ring. 💪

An ode to the stock show moms:

She’s the first one up and the last to bed,
With steam from the iron and thoughts in her head.

Wrinkled shirts pressed and boots by the door,
She’s handled more laundry than a dry cleaning store.

Her home? The barn. Her seat? A folding chair.
Her nails? Caked in paint, adhesive, and care.

With comb in one hand and snacks in the other,
She juggles a million roles—coach, cheerleader, mother.

She teaches with grit, both tough love and grace,
Corrects a bad setup, wipes tears from a face.

No blue ribbon needed to measure her worth,
She’s the heartbeat of hard work,the salt of the earth.

She sacrifices rest, her time, even pay,
So her kids learn what matters at the end of the day.

For she knows deep down, it’s not just a show,
It’s where work builds character and young people grow.

So here’s to the moms who make it all run:
Your legacy’s loud, your job never done.

Happy Mother’s Day 🧡

Like anything in the ring—practice makes perfect. 💥
