[QUOTE="eric, post: 98696, member: 7"] Yes, sale barns are a great place to find someone who has cattle for sale by private treaty. Just have a seat next to some ol' guy who looks friendly enough, offer to buy him a soda or cup of coffee just before the sale starts (since you're getting yourself one anyway ;-) )and kinda start up a conversation with him. I've picked many a cattle mans brain by asking him why that particular cow went so cheap, or what makes that cow so expensive. You'll find that 99.99% of these guys are very humble and very willing to help beginners as long as you dont go in there bragging about how good your cows are and are willing to admit you're a beginner and willing to accept any and all advice he can offer. So go grab a seat, keep your hands in your pockets and your head still, and sit back enjoy the show! [/QUOTE]
