The best SimAngus bull I have ever offered for sale. Thick, super growth, herd bull. He should be on everyone’s list

Sale Process Each bull will have a base price listed. If you have interest in a bull, put your buyer number next to that bull’s number. If you are the only bidder, the bull is yours if you want him at the base price. If two or more have chosen the bull, you will have the opportunity to bid on the bull by $100 increments un l only one bidder remains. What we don’t want to happen is for you to miss out on any bull that will fit your program.

So, put your number on mul ple bulls to be sure you don’t get shut out. If you get your top choices and then don’t need a bull you marked, you are under no obliga on to bid on any more bulls. Our ul mate goal is for you to get the best bulls for your herd goals.
