[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 347678, member: 1683"] I watched it for the entire sale. They had a good representation for their "1st ever National Aubrac Sale" and a lot of the bulls were worth, in my opinion, more than they brought, which is the case in a lot of sales. Aubrac is an unknown breed, comparatively speaking, so a lot of breeders know nothing about them. But they should now, after Superior carried the sale. Those of you who have read Eric Grant's comments on the Forum regarding Aubrac cattle several weeks know that he is VERY knowledgeable about the breed. He has been involved with them for 10 or 15 years, is the current President of the Association and has a Ranch here in Colorado in the Steamboat Springs area (about 8000 ft. altitude). Eric also writes articles in several publications - as a matter of fact he has five articles in the current Angus Journal, and will have in each issue for the next year or so. He is the owner of Wahoo! Cattle Company of Oak Creek, CO. His six entries in today's sale averaged $2716.66, with his best lot bringing $5000.00. There were several pens of females which were really bargains, and were fine looking examples of beef females. Aubracs are noted for their ability to gain of just grass and forage, and I am impressed with the breed. DOC HARRIS [/QUOTE]
