The reserve grand champion was BR Clearwater, a Dec. 1, 2005, son of BR Jam. Brandon Douglas, Miami, Okla., owns him.

Jensen sorted 27 females in the first-ever NJLSC Lim-Flex® female show. Douglas won grand champion with EXLR Emma 771R, the Division 2 champion and a March 23, 2005, daughter of LESF Asphalt 9N out of EXLR Miss Emma 1001L.

The steer show included 12 entries in the Prospect Division and 22 head in the Progress Division. Christopher Barton, Jarrell, Texas, won champion prospect steer with a 642-pound, half-blood son of MLGF Miss 78F. Reserve champion went to the 757-pound, half-blood son of MIKS Miss Touchback 4931 that Sy Ann Foster, Lockney, Texas, showed.

The Limousin breed and its Lim-Flex hybrid lead the beef industry in muscle-growth efficiency and ideally complement British breeds.
