We caught up with Ms. Kirsten Walck, exhibitor of the Reserve Champion Market Lamb at the 2024 American Royal. Learn a little more about Kirsten below!
What was your favorite thing about the show?
Spending time with friends Tahts are from different states!
What is one experience in the ring you will never forget?
Getting the opportunity to be in the American Royal Grand Drive. How they have all the species show at once is definitely unique.
What is one thing you try to not take for granted while showing?
Taking away from having fun! I do my best to forget about everything and go out there and just cherish the last few shows I get with these lambs!
If you had to use one word to describe the people supporting you, what would it be?
Blessed
If you had to pick a favorite judge, who would it be and why?
I’m going to be honest that’s a tough one and honestly don’t think I have a favorite judge.
Do you enjoy doing showmanship? Why or why not?
I loved showmanship when I was growing up! As I get older it just isn’t for me anymore but I would say it has made me the showman I am today doing it and listening to the tips and reasons people win showmanship!
If you could pick another species to show, what would it be? Why?
I have always wanted to show cattle! They just seem like a big teddy bear.
