Here's the PDCA's Uniform Scorecard for judging junior dairy fitting and showmanship:
Appearance of Animal - 30 Points
Cleanliness - 10
Grooming - 10
Clipping - 5
Condition & Thriftiness - 5
Appearance of Exhibitor - 10 Points
Showing Animal in the Ring - 60 Points
Leading - 25
Posing - 15
Show Animal to Best Advantage - 10
Poise, Alertness, Attitude - 10
TOTAL 100
Showmanship classes will be first thing in the morning and will begin with senior showmanship
A. Appearance of Animal - 30 points
1. Cleanliness - 10 points
a. The best fitted animals are always extremely clean. Hair & switch must be completely clean and free from stains.
b. Hide and ears free of dirt & wax, legs & feet clean.
2. Grooming - 10 points
a. Hair properly groomed & the hide soft & pliable. Hair dressing & powders should not be used in excess. Excessive manipulation of hair is undesirable, however, toplines may be blow dried & hair spray used to straighten toplines.
b. Hooves trimmed & shaped to enable animal to walk & stand naturally.
c. All animals of all breeds older than six months must be dehorned.
3. Clipping - 5 points
a. Final clipping should be done just before the show. Clipped & unclipped areas should be smoothly blended so clipper lines do not show.
b. Head, neck, ears, tail, udder (for cows) & elsewhere clipped as needed. Front & rear legs should be clipped to give the appearance of greater flatness of bone & to remove stains. Toplines should be trimmed to improve straightness. Body clipping is acceptable, but additional credit should not be given for professional clipping.
The belly & udder are not to be clipped on heifers that have not freshened or are not close to springing.
4. Condition & Thriftiness - 5 points
a. Condition & thriftiness should be normal growth, being neither too fat nor too thin
B. Appearance of Exhibitor - 10 points
1. Clothes and person neat and clean and NOTE:
· A White shirt is PERFERRED.
· White pants are REQUIRED.
· Durable, protective shoes are recommended when large animals are exhibited.
· Clothing should be practical and tasteful.
C. Showing Animal in the Ring - 60 points
1. Leading - 25 points
a. Enter leading the animal at normal walk around the ring in a clockwise direction, walking opposite the head on the left side, holding the lead strap with the right hand quite close to the halter with the strap neatly, but naturally (preferably not coiled), gathered in one or both hands. Holding close to the halter or with the hand inside the halter ensures more secure control of an animal.
b. Animal should lead readily and respond quickly to the exhibitor. It is the responsibility of the exhibitor to respond quickly with the animal to the signals given by the judge.
c. Halter of right type for showing dairy cattle, fitting properly and placed correctly on animal. The nose band should fit across the bridge of the nose midway between the eyes and the muzzle. A leather halter with leather or chain lead is preferred.
d. As the judge studies your animal, the preferred method of leading is walking slowly facing the animal and holding the lead strap in the left hand with the remainder of it neatly, but naturally, gathered in one or both hands. At all other times, walk facing forward at a quicker pace. When given the signal to pull into line, move quickly to that position in the ring.
e.
Lead at a
comfortable pace with the animal's head held high enough for impressive style,
attractive carriage
& graceful walk. Never allow a large gap to
occur between your animal & the one ahead of you. Do not
crowd the exhibitor ahead of you or lead in
front of that animal so it cannot be seen by the judge.
2. Posing - 15 points
a. When posing & showing an animal, stay on the animal's left side & stand faced at an angle to her in a position far enough away to see stance of her feet & her topline.
b. Pose animal with feet squarely placed. The hind leg nearest the judge is posed slightly behind the other one when showing heifers or bulls. The hind leg nearest the judge should be far enough ahead to allow the judge to see both the fore & rear udder when exhibiting cows.
c. Animal should be trained so the exhibitor can move it quickly & easily into the correct pose. The position of the rear legs should be reversed when the judge walks around to view the animal from the other side. Do not over show. When judge is observing the animal, let it stand when posed reasonably well.
d. Face animal uphill, if possible, with her front feet on a slight incline.
e. Always move quickly into line when given the signal by a judge. Neither crowd the exhibitor next to you nor leave enough space for another animal when you lead into a side-by-side position.
f. Animal may be backed out of line when judge requests that her placing be changed. Move animal back by exerting pressure on the shoulder point with the thumb and finger of the right hand while pushing back with the halter. Many prefer to lead animal forward & around the end of the line or back through the line. Do not lead animal between the judge & an animal being observed. To move the animal ahead, pull gently on the lead strap.
g. Do most of the showing with the halter & lead strap & avoid stepping on the animal's hind feet to move them.
h. Be natural. Over showing, undue fussing, and maneuvering are objectionable.
3. Show Animal to Best Advantage
- 10 points
a. Quickly recognize the conformation faults of the animal you are leading & show to overcome them. You may be asked to exchange with another & show a different animal.
b. For the judge to evaluate the animal properly, it is vital that the exhibitor know basic information such as birth date, fresh date, breeding date & due date. Knowledge of this information will help show the animal to best advantage.
4. Poise, Alertness & Attitude
- 10 points
a. Keep an eye on your animal & be aware of the position of the judge at all times. Do not be distracted by people or activities outside the ring.
b. Show animal at all times & not yourself.
c. Respond rapidly to requests from the judge & officials.
d. Be courteous & sportsmanlike at all times.
e. Keep showing until the entire class has been placed & the judge has given the results.
