Tuesday, June 20, 2017 - Packer Day


Even though we remain very current, the live market continues to be pressured by discounted futures and the threat of larger numbers ahead.  Today's top was 133.50 - $7 less than a week ago and $17 less than the spring high!  With the select discount continuing to hover at $30/cwt, make sure your cattle are fat before sending them to town!]

The cull cow & bull market remains very active and strong! 

Our sale this Thursday will feature several fall bred cows.
