Black Swamp Preview Show

We would like to announce our 2026 Williams County Fall Classic Open Show Judge, Jason Bihl!

Originally from Washington Court House, Ohio, he developed a strong passion for the cattle industry at an early age. He furthered his education at Blackhawk East Community College before attending Michigan State University, where he continued to build his knowledge and experience in the agricultural industry.

Today, he operates a small cow-calf operation alongside his wife and their three children. Their family focuses on raising and selling quality breeding cattle and show steers. Through their operation, he continues to be actively involved in the cattle industry and remains committed to producing functional, high-quality cattle.

His education, hands-on experience, and years of involvement in the cattle industry have provided him with a well-rounded perspective that he brings to the show ring as a cattle judge.

We hope to see everyone on September 20th, 2026!
