Compared to last week: steers of different weight classes today than last week so an accurate trend can not be established, higher undertones noted on steers. Best test on heifers 1000 to 1050 lbs 2.00 to 5.00 higher. Good to very good demand for today's offering of attractive yearlings both off grass and out of feed yards. Flesh varied with most yearlings off grass in light to moderate with some moderate plus flesh at times, yard cattle in moderate to moderate plus with some heavy flesh at times. Quite a few strings and many loads to choose from as well as many packages of tested open heifers. An active market with buyers many times taking all loads in a cut when offered. A couple packages of spring calves offered, these saw moderate to good demand. Some rain in the area earlier this week with very good chances for more precipitation tomorrow. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, September 1.
