First reported sale in recent weeks so an accurate trend can not be established. Good to very good demand for today's large offering consisting mostly of strings and loads, including one long string of 1200 steers off grass. Quality mostly average to attractive today and flesh varied depending on where the cattle were coming from as there were feed lot and grass cattle in the offering. Some tested open heifers in the mix today as some producers are getting fall PG testing underway. A moderate to active market with good buyer attendance today. Next feeder cattle sale is next Wednesday, September 4.
