Charolais in South Dakota...who brought em?

[Turkey Track Bar]

After the sale I heard Bryce Lindskov say the "whites" averaged 6100 and the blacks 4700. They had a million dollar day and definitely deserved it. Brent works really hard for that average---it's easy to sell the good high, but tough to maintain that high of an average throughout the entire sale.

The high Char was $47500 (I think, I know the $47000 part but might have been $47750 or 250) and second high was $42000). Sorry I don't know what the high selling Angus was--maybe 10 or 12 thousand???

Also Lynn Weisharr (?spelling) is a great auctioneer--some of the great sale needs to be attributed to his talent.

Mike I was looking forward to meeting you at the sale--and was disappointed when Brent said you weren't going to make it.

Great cattle and great people--

Congrats to them all---

Hey everyone!!!! I found the data for the "blacks" at the LT sale---they averaged $4913 and grossed $309,500. I was off by $200 =/- on the average and off by more than that on the high (see below)---opps. I guess that's what I get for not paying better attention! Sorry---so here's the scoop on the blacks---
