[QUOTE="Ryan, post: 198767, member: 615"] I went. topsquar, you are right, lots of horn, ribs, and fancy hides, however not much sheath as longhorns are pretty clean breed. It was crazy. lots of big prices. Last year the gross was $1.8million, and this year that number was surpassed by lot 63 or 64. There were 2 cows that went for $100,000+ (thats right, not a misprint), and an [b]unexposed heifer[/b] that went for [b]$150,000[/b]. Lots of cows went for over $20,000. We did buy 5 cows, 2 with calves at side. We didn't pay anything near those amounts for them. We went for the "steals of the sale", animals with the bodies we demand, and still had very good horns. The animals we bought went cheaper, b/c they didnt have the ridiculous amounts of horn. Overall, it was a [b]very [/b]interesting sale. I was surprised by many things that night. But I do feel that our ranch came out with some good, bred cows that can help our program. Ryan [/QUOTE]
