[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1792797, member: 6291"] A few years back I was looking for a Hereford bull and potentially some heifers so I drove a pretty good ways to a fairly well known ranch for their sale. Drug the trailer up there, got a hotel, the whole deal. I got to the ranch real early and got signed up. When I started walking then pens, some of their cowboys were talking as they saddled up about what bulls they did not catch. They were going out to rope them one by one. That was a definite red flag for me but I figured I would have no issue spotting them as they ran by. Got my wish list togther and put some numbers beside them. As I sat down and got situated some guys came out and set up several big tv screens in front of the normal half circle ring. No animals actually went by. It was videos of them on tv. I was pissed. I didnt by any thing. As I was leaving out the manager asked me if I found any thing I liked. He got an ear full. He told me they decided to do it like that last minute because it was easier on the animals. 🤬 [/QUOTE]
