Friday's sale going into the Labor Day weekend and with the extreme heat this week had very light receipts this week. Feeders were not well tested selling in small packages and singles. Slaughter cows on a light test were mostly average and low yielding cows selling mostly 3.00-5.00 lower.

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $466.70, low $359.39, median $422.06 across 13 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
