As filed

No recently tested market for a price comparison, undertone higher. This was the first day of the Annual Beef BBQ Customer Appreciation Sale, featuring yearlings on Monday and calves on Wednesday. Roughly 30 straight loads of yearlings moved through the ring on Monday, all from well known local reputation producers. Weigh up ran the gamut throughout the day but the steer loads sold later in the day were pretty empty. Buyer numbers were fairly limited but buyer power was not; most of the loads, particularly the heifers, went to a very small number of outlets but still at some pretty salty prices. Supply heavy, demand good to very good.
