Re: Intermediate Showmanship
Keep pig off judges feet and do not go behind the judge. show the judge every angle of the pig. do not lean down when showing except when you are driving the pig directly to the judge to keep its head up and show chest floor. look calm and natural and don't have a panic look on your face. make sure you know how to read ear notches (not just your own pigs), weight, date of birth, what you are feeding and the judge may ask you what the flaw in your pigs is. Do not tell a judge "i don't know" on any question. Hope this helps. Have fun and good luck.

Re: Intermediate Showmanship
Stay off the judges feet, work 1 side of the pen ( the judge turns alot and if you stay out of goups and work 1 side of the pen the judge should see your pig and look at it more.)and don't get into groups of pigs. After the judge places you, make sure to shake his hand and say Thank You.

Re: Intermediate Showmanship
Be confident and show the judge all angles of your pig
be sure to have its head up and be sure to study questions about swine prior to showing
