Slick shear, well you are in the right area of the country for that.  You'll never see slick shearing in Ohio I will assure of that.  People have to realize that their isn't anything in life that is fair.  I would still love to get do this once though is have the fair buy 20 steers your name goes into a hat and randomly picking your steers.  I still will guarantee ours will be hairy, and ready to lay the smack down.  Name me one thing that is fair, people need to get over it and show cattle.
