Sale started at 1230--didn't get over til after 5PM...I watched a good share of it-(good rainy day activity)- and I sure wouldn't call it a runaway...Registered bred heifers were mostly around $1100--with some selling as low as $925...Commercial AI bred heifers (bred to Nebraska and Final Answer) mostly sold in $875 range....
I thought he did fairly good on many of the bull calves with most going over $1000- and many up in the $2000 range....Heifer calves were a little weak at times-- with some going in the $525 to $600 range...A couple penciled out at about $.89 lb...
They had it set up so you could winter and develop the bull calves at Houlds Lot for an extra $550 + cost of insurance, if you didn't want to do it yourself..
Lot of the cows sold in the $1100- $1200 price...
I think the top cow was Lot 173-- #14335167- a 2002 model- E7 Guru 9586 daughter bred to Sitz Alliance 6595- which sold for $3000...

Thanks, OT. I don't know much about the Guru bull except Roger Trang, from up your way, sure likes him and has liked him for quite awhile now.

I do know that Hould's feedlot is among the very best...

Yep- Guru was a good bull- I've seen a lot of sons and daughters that were good looking cattle....Holmans had some nice cows- altho they didn't fit the type angus I prefer...
One year when I got hold of some extra pasture- I bought some of their old commercial baldy cows to run for a year...A couple I kept for several...The picture of the old baldy cow that I put on here once- after I got a good look at her number brand and realized she was 18 years old- was a Holman cow...Another one that I bought for about $400 was my highest producer of the year- giving me twins- one calf (heifer) that I sold immediately for $250- another (steer) that brought about $575 when I weaned it- and then I sold her for near $500...I told Mark that if he could give me deals like that every day- we could make money raising cows :wink: :lol:

I see where there is another Montana angus herd dispersion (partial anyway) that will be on dv auctions tommorrow at noon....Blevins Angus of Charlo- will sell at the Missoula livestock yard all their cows that had heifer calves and the calves- and 50 bred heifers...
The letter in their catalog says a Partnership breakup....

Lots of sales coming up in the next few weeks...I'd love to make it to Diamond D's at Valier on the 12th- and Whitney Creeks at Rapelje on the 14th-- but we're also weaning registered calves and shipping steers that week...
But if I had a pocket full of cash I could be like a kid in a candy store at a couple of those sales.... :wink:

The sale to attend up here this year will be the Valleyhills Dispersal-Brian is almost painfully honest I'm sure he'd tell you if a bulls granddam ate a thistle through the fence in '84. They're good solid purebred cows raised under commercial conditions-one of my buddies added up his bulls he's bought there-came up with 77 lol. We've had good luck with cattle we bought from him over the years.

If anyone is interested in some bred registered cows/heifers-(Diamond D, Cole Creek, Ohlde, etc. bloodlines)- I know a fellow that has some for sale...More cows than he has pasture problem...
He delivered a couple Whitney Creek bloodline bred heifers (bred to Jipsey Earl) to a neighbor of mine they other day- and he was pretty impressed with the cattle overall....

If anyone is interested PM me and I'll send you a phone number of the fellow that has them...
