Compared to last week: best test on steers 900 to 1000 lbs mostly steady with instances up to 5.00 higher on 900 to 950 lbs. Heifers not well compared, higher undertones noted on heifers. Good to very good demand for today's offering which sold on an active market. Several strings and many loads offered, mostly light to moderate plus flesh today. Quite a few consignments off grass again this week, most of these were heifers. These are in town due to the drought as many of these would not normally come off grass until fall. One consignment of spring calves offered today, these were met with good demand. Quality mostly average to attractive overall. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, July 21.
