It’s not always a highlight reel…..

We had what we felt was the best set of donors we’ve ever lined up, paired with buck choices we were extremely excited about.

And just about the time you think you’ve got this game somewhat figured out……it has a way of smacking you right in the face.

We’ve been on both ends of the flush-record spectrum, and today definitely wasn’t the end you want to be on.

The record heat we’ve dealt with this week certainly didn’t do us any favors, and we feel like that played a pretty significant role in the results today. That’s part of trying to make sheep in South Texas, but it doesn’t make a day like today any easier to swallow.

I know that’s how this deal goes. There are highs and lows, and no matter how much you prepare, some days just don’t go your way. But I’d be lying if I said today didn’t feel like a kick in the 🥜.

The good thing is, we prepared for exactly this. We’re set up a lot better than we were a year ago, and one bad flush isn’t going to make or break what we’re trying to build.

And there’s still a LOT to be excited about.

We’ve got a hell of a set of ewes still lined up to flush and AI to Wallen, Common Ground, and Paradise City.

Today wasn’t our day….But there’s a lot of game left to play. 👊 ... See MoreSee Less
