In between running a tractor, feed truck, or managing livestock while working on his parent's farm and ranch operation, Corbin Steinbeisser manages to raise a quality 4-H steer, and helps his younger siblings with theirs, as much as they allow him to, that is. In his first year of showing, he won Reserve in Novice Showmanship with his market steer, so he certainly knows how to get one in the winner's circle. Maintaining a reliable feed schedule and lots of time are his keys to a good animal to present at the Richland County Fair.
The son of Jim and MayAnn Steinbeisser, Sidney. Corbin also enjoys shooting sports and woodworking projects.
He earned Best of Fair with a potato battery several years ago, and last year won Judges Choice for his display of different shotgun ammunitions and their uses. Two years ago, Corbin attended 4-H Congress after winning his division at Richland County 4-H Speech and Demonstration Day, and greatly enjoyed the experience. He and other 4-H members were able to observe a cannulated cow; which is a cow that has a surgically installed port-hole device through which their stomach can be studied. The dance was also a highlight of his Congress trip.
Corbin in the past has competed on the Richland County 4-H Livestock Judging Team, and in his time on it they won the Keith Steinbeisser Memorial Livestock Judging.
Montana State University, Bozeman, is Corbin's destination this coming fall, with a degree in farm and ranch management in mind. He hopes his years in 4-H have him well-prepared for the courses and knows the value of Parliamentary Procedure in future leadership roles. He would like to eventually join the Montana Stockgrowers Association and plans to continue his ((family's ranch and farm operation.
