FIRST ANNUAL

CLIPPING AND GROOMING CAMP

I have been in the show calf business nearly all my life showing and now selling club calves. I have learned many things about grooming cattle throughout my career, much of which I have learned from my uncle Duane Hilbert, who is considered by many as one of the greatest clippers and fitters ever!
Now I would like to share with everyone my abilities.

My camp will be a crash course in clipping, fitting and showmanship; along with some tips on hoof trimming, daily care and feeding of show cattle. I realize there are numerous clinics out there, but I feel I can teach you a younger and fresher approach in these areas.
