[QUOTE="Craig-TX, post: 21350, member: 39"] Over the years we’ve had good results with cows bought in the ring. You’ve got to be careful and look closely, just like when you’re buying anything else of value. It pays to get there early go back to the barn. Spend some time on the catwalks and see what looks good and what doesn’t. If the salebarn owner or auctioneer is starting a cow by the pound, it’s fairly safe to assume she’s already seen her better days. The trick is to never get in a hurry to buy and be willing to walk away empty handed on any given day. You can pick off some nice deals if you have the skill and patience. It’s more work and more time consuming than buying private treaty or from a special sale but it sure can leave a lot more money in your pocket. Craig-TX [/QUOTE]
