Compared to the sale a week ago only one weight group was comparable; steers 850 to 900 lbs. sold 11.00 higher. All other weight groups were not well compared. There were many smaller packages, however one consignor brought nearly 300 head of reputation cattle. Demand was very good today and included internet bidding. Supply was moderate.
