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

5 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $210.53, low $178.67, median $201.25 across 5 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
