[QUOTE="Ojp6, post: 1242456, member: 23608"] Yeah kill cows they usually only have two or three guys to look at before they sell them. My dad used to buy for Cargill and JBS and a lot of the sales he went to it was just him and one other guy on everything but heiferettes. And generally everybody tries to get through them in a hurry. I was at a bred sale yesterday and they had a bunch of heifers and heifer pairs and the owner put a 3,000 dollar bottom on the pairs and 2,500 on the close up breds. I know some owners at smaller sales around home will come look at your cattle and guarantee you a price on them just to give you a good reason to bring them there instead of taking them to a big sale. I've seen an owner get hung with them because of a guarantee a few times. [/QUOTE]
