Vanderhoof Sale - Friday, Jul 17, 2020
It’s too wet to hay so we went to selling cattle. 250 hd showed up and we had a top notch sale. Only about 50 feeder cattle in the sale but there was certainly no lack of quality. 7 Up Ranch (Burns Lk) had 803 lb tan strs strike 186.00, 682 lb strs at 203.50, and 707 lb char hfrs hit 185.50. Guy Bambauer (Van) had 678 lb Hereford x strs fetch 200.00. Thys Jaarsma (Telkwa) saw his 779 lb hfrs bring 172.75. Little Valley Farms (Van) in with a liner load of cows, their top sort was a ring load of 1372 lb cows that notched 87.00. Dave Johnson (Fort Fraser) showed 1378 lb cows worth 89.00. Pelican Lk Ranch (Batnuni Lk) had 1292 lb cows fetch 84.50, a 1815 lb red bull that saw 110.00 and an 1880 lb rwf bull at 109.00. Down Under Ranch (Van) had 1410 lb cows crack 87.00 and a 2000 lb Char bull force 114.00. Mountain View Ranch (Van) saw their 1970 lb Simm bull push to 115.00. Pooles Arrow Ranch (Punchaw) had a 2030 lb Simm bull match 115.00. Brock Young (Van) in with a 2045 lb bull that also topped the market at 115.00. That cleans up the mid summer cattle and now it looks like time for haying! Thanks for supporting BC Livestock. Our next Vanderhoof regular sale is August 14th.
