Us farm kids didn't get trained in judging cattle. We got trained in

My uncle was a judge - sheep, goats and milkers.

Learned a lot about judging watching him do it for many years.

I still couldn't do it though. Requires a special talent to be
truthful and accurate about a whole bunch of subjective values.

It's not as easy as it looks.
