We caught up with San Angelo Stock Show Wether Doe Judge, Chase McPhaul, to ask him a few questions before he steps “INSIDE THE RING”!
How did you get started in the livestock industry?
I grew up in Big Lake, Texas where my family owned a club lamb operation, having around 300 head of club lamb ewes. My passion for the industry continued to develop through being an active member in the Reagan County 4-H and FFA program.
Tell us about your career.
am currently the County Extension Agent in Reagan County specializing in Ag and Natural Resources.
What is your all-time favorite show?
The Houston Stock Show
What is your biggest show ring pet peeve?
I would have to say it would be having the show held up due to exhibitors not getting there on time.
What’s the best goat you’ve ever seen?
I would have to say that it would be the Grand Champion Goat from the CowPalace Show that I judged in California this year! Although the goat is little, it has a bunch of future ahead of it.
A FEW FUN QUESTIONS
What did you want to be when you were younger?
A Texas Tech football player.
It’s Karaoke Night… What song are you singing?
I’m a terrible singer so lets just say I would be helping everyone out by not singing at karaoke night!
What’s the most daring thing you’ve ever done?
Taking over my family’s club lamb operation with my business partner. Very daring and challenging at times.
