Monday's auction had a much larger offering with long strings of pot loads and large groups of top quality feeders with no recent comparison on overall numbers and quality, but all sold with a higher to sharply higher undertone. Quality was top as prices reflected with many impressive/reputation feeders on hand selling in pot loads, part loads and large groups with good weighing conditions all through the sale as buyers were active and aggressive to own cattle. Stick out sales were many with 88 hd of steers weighing 617 lbs at 501.00; 82 steers 650 lbs at 462.50; 47 fancy heifers 515 lbs 536.00; 93 hd of heifers 578 lbs at 483.00 and the list goes on. Slaughter cows on a light test sold firm to 5.00 higher.
