[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1717237, member: 1715"] Pretty common. Not always true but pretty common. We see it too, unless there is a high priced spring kill month several feeders trying to hit. Bud Williams talked about this discount and it was a pillar of his sell buy grow yard approach. He said there are just not as many orders for 6 wts.. My neighbor sold his steers early last month. Most were in the sixes, while late calves n scrubs were high fours. I calculated his VOG for bigger calves at 74 US cents and asked what he thought about selling six weights. He said since they were unweaned calves coming off pasture - - he did not care about price per pound and was happy with more $$$ per head for the six wts.. Now he is feeding his thin cows $70 a roll drought hay instead of stockpiled grass. [/QUOTE]
