She was a "Star" from the time she hit the ground... and she has been a explosive heifer in the show ring to watch with her get to business attitude!!  A heifer of this caliber only comes along in some herds once in a life time.   We feel very fortunate to have had the privilege to share her success with the Flying I Ranch.  With your superb show knowledge and handling she has far exceeded our expectations.   Thank you Mark, Suz, Zach, Roger and family!

If you will notice at the top of our web page there is a picture panorama of our cattle and ranch!  In that picture in the middle is Baby Star and her Momma grazing in the pasture.  The picture was taken after she won Calf Champion and Calf Division at Tulsa State Fair in 2005.   We took her off her momma for five days to show.   We brought her home and put her back on her momma until it was time to wean her!   There aren't many heifers that you could do that with and be successful.  It's been fun to watch Star develop and grow into a beautiful female! 

We all hope for great things from Star's progeny down the road and in the pasture!

TLC Bud's Star R5150 and Rachel McDowell
