[QUOTE="Third Row, post: 209559, member: 3823"] lol, I didn't get there until they were just getting done with the opens but I didn't miss anything. We all know it wasn't two girls who paid $10k for those heifers, it was two girl's daddies. Was it the same people from the valley that paid the big bucks last year? I could understand trying to bring cattle down here from the Triple C Fall sale but bringing a heifer from a harsh winter to an extreme Summer is just cruel in my opinion. Talking with the Texas breeders after the sale, they said it typically takes at least two years for those Northern females to adjust to the climate down here. I mess around with the clubbies and ran #18 (the Who Made Who heifer bred to Dream on) up to $3,300 but couldn't justify going $3,500. We did get a few other replacements though. That auctioneer has a bad tendency to run cattle up. Any time he asked for either $25 or $75 (as in $1325 or $1375) it was P.O. I know because I bought a few of those cattle after the sale. (they also need a better photographer, the pics in the catalog didn't do the cattle justice) [/QUOTE]
