Even though the weather did not cooperate and had been wet and muddy, Larry Patterson, owner, and Randy Harper, manager along with their families got the cattle ready for a great sale. The barn was at overflow capacity and the bidding was active on the bulls as well as the females. Many repeat buyers were on hand to purchase the proven genetics associated with the BoPat program. Of special interest was a pen of five brothers by "Pfred," These bulls did well on feed test and had strong ultrasound data. This pen averaged $3,210.
