[QUOTE="stocky, post: 815072, member: 1150"] My thoughts are a little different than West Dakota. The field man will come in later, if at all. The owner/operator/manager will either be doing the auctioning, running the ring, or sitting beside the auctioneer. He will be setting in the price of the cattle. He is the one you need to talk to. Some places the owner will have you work with the field man on logistics, which alley to pen, etc. but it is the owner you want contact with, he is the one where the money is and he is the boss. When you only go through a field man, you do not have the mental committment from the owner and then it is the fieldman whose job it is to give you some lame duck excuse as to why the price was bad or the service was bad. If it is the owner who has to apologize for bad service, he will have someone's rear end on the line. No one will take care of your cattle as well as you, why put another person in between you and the man responsible for getting the money? [/QUOTE]
