Do you have some really good calves but no time to show them? Would you like for people to see your good cattle and increase your ranch's exposure to other breeders?

Let Double H Longhorns show off your cattle on the show circuit.

Maybe you don't live on your ranch so you are not available to feed your cattle daily. Or maybe life is too busy and you don't have the time or desire to halter-break your calves.

Let Double H Longhorns "fit" your cattle for the show ring.

At Double H Longhorns, we have been showing Texas Longhorn cattle since 1998. The primary showmen were Kathryn and Matthew. Both Kathryn and Matthew learned their showmanship techniques from John T. Baker through the Sunrise Showmanship Camp. They improved their skills and techniques through several years of experience. During their years of shown Kathryn and Matthew won numerous Showmanship honors (listed below) and were routinely ranked in the TLBT Hall of Fame.

Kathryn and Matthew have now grown up and left home, but Double H Longhorns is still showing cattle. Over the past several years, Kathryn and Matthew have shared their showmanship knowledge with several other kids that have been traveling with us.

Kailee Vuskov has been part of our team since 2007 and is our most experienced showman. Besides learning from Kathryn and Matthew, Kailee has also attended Sunrise Showmanship camp. Kailee routinely places in the top three in her showmanship age group.

In 2009 we met the Karbowski/Ryan family; soon afterwards West Ryan and Reese Ryan began showing with us and both of them have turned into very good showmen. Like Kailee, Reese has also attended Sunrise Showmanship Camp to improve her skills.

In the past year we have had six other new kids show with us. The youngest of these, Sara Jennings has worked hard to learn how to show cattle and it shows. Sara won Junior Showmanship three times in her first five shows.

Some of the kids that showed for Double H Longhorns at the 2010 TLBAA World Expo included (clockwise from top left) West Ryan, Allyn Ryan, Barclay Brunson, Tabitha Faske, Timothy Phillips, Blair Brunson, Kailee Vuskov and Reese Ryan.
