A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

24 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $205.17, low $160.31, median $191.92 across 24 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
