[QUOTE="eric, post: 131317, member: 7"] By the way Matt..... 700-800 lbs. 101.00-108.00 means that at least one hd sold for 101.00 / cwt and at least one hd sold for 108.00 / cwt, and majority sold between those prices. If you have cattle in pretty decent shape, you should get at least the mid range price for them when you sell, in this case around 104.00-105.00 / cwt. Not sure why, but whenever you buy, it always seems you are establishing the high price for the day, maybe it because no one wants to buy the lower end cows. Or at least most of us dont. Some folks buy the lower end cows, fill em up with groceries and make a decent profit from them. Not me....I buy them high, sell them low and pay the hauler to haul them to and from my place. :roll: FWIW....when you see N/T next to a particular weight group, it means none tested...or no cattle that weight were sold that day. Usually occurs on very young calves or very large calves. [/QUOTE]
