Assessor Comments
A great opportunity to purchase a line of F1 Wagyu steers, direct from the breeder. These steers have an excellent reputation of being high performance cattle. The steers were a pleasure to handle and have been professionally weaned, by highly experienced managers. Sold as a run out the gate of 84 and 85. Total of 169. Note other lots same vendor this sale. Bulls have been selected for the live export market to Japan in the past. These steers have been highly sort after for performance and temperament in the past. I would highly recommend these steers, as previous buyers have rated this line of cattle as of excellent quality and performance. If you are after performance and quality these steers are for you!!
