| | Pretty sure it's Jordan. Supposed to be a relative of Zach. All I've heard is he likes them thick.

|  | I teach in the same county as Jordan. If you have ever shown to Glenn or Zach, I am pretty sure that Jordan will be along those same lines. His students do very well in our county and place in the majors as well...Tim

| | Son placed 2nd under him. I thought he did a fine job. Really consistent, easy to follow and super super good with the kids. Great judge.

| | Good one! Judged at South Plains, then Tech. Hauled lots of good ones when he was a kid. I have not seen him show, but would suspect the post above are right on. I would think he is especially good with kids in the ring.

| | He was....what I really liked about him is if a kid was having trouble, he either helped them out a little or gave them a minute to get the sheep presented properly. He based his decisions squarely on the sheep and gave each and every animal a good fair look. If the animal was one of the first few pulled from the lineup, he would go over squat down and speak to the showman and explain why that individual animal was placed at the bottom. He really seemed to know his sheep as well. Apparently not many folks really know of him but I highly recommend him if your looking for a judge. you definitely won't be disappointed.

| | hmm... I notice in another post that you claim to judge shows. If you want to do very many of them, I hope you change your attitude and realize that there are lots of different types of shows and how you handle them will have a direct correlation to you getting to do more of them. I will be the first to agree that at most jackpot shows that we see in the central Texas area, folks want them sorted, their points and if they are getting any their money back to get it and go. However I am willing to bet at many county shows and most jackpots in the East Texas area it benefits the kids and judge to take their time and allow each kid to feel like they have gotten a fair shake. I think we have seen enough of judges at the majors who are arrogant, do not take their time and make the kids and parents from 5th place on down wonder why they are standing as low as they are simply because they felt like the remaining placing sheep are all getting the same money.
