Virginia 4-H Livestock Program

2001 Block & Bridle Livestock Contest Results


On March 17 and 18 4-H and FFA members from throughout Virginia came to Blacksburg to compete in two different livestock contests that were planned and conducted by members of the Block and Bridle Club of Virginia Tech. The Block and Bridle Club conducts many activities throughout the year and these contests involve the most people by far.

In the Livestock Judging Contest a total of 363 contestants competed. They judged classes of beef cattle, sheep, and swine, interpreted performance records, answered questions about the classes they judged, and gave oral reasons to justify their decisions. Two separately scored contests were held, Livestock Judging, and Advanced Livestock Judging. Results from both divisions follow.

2001 Block and Bridle Livestock Judging Contest Winners in the Livestock Judging Division are below. Contestants did not give reasons, and consist of members age 9 through 19. There were 230 contestants and 56 teams of at least 3 members. They came from 47 different locations. Total points possible was 550.
