A huge crowd gathered on a beautiful fall day to witness a truly strong event. Quality Angus bulls were in strong demand. Seven bulls sold for $5,000 or more. Charolais offering was very strong but saw limited interest. Each bull received a 331/3 lb Diamond Protein and Energy block compliments of Cargill Animal Nutrition. Volume buying honors went to Mike Urrutea, Friant, CA. The sale was up $440 per bull over the 2008 event. Another top event for the breeders involved.
