Let's Walk The Pens - 9/27

Hey Brian, Larry Marble, that's my cab cook, Hop Singh. He's fixing to feed us colage and coffee. And I'm going to give you a livestock market operator report. The Arklahoma Livestock Market News Service, Let's Walk the Pens, Red Dirt 96.7. Trent Hokett sells them in Stigler every Wednesday. Trent, how was last Wednesday's sale? Sale was real good, Larry. We had 545 head run through the ring. Market was pretty good in all areas. It was just a touchdown in the Packer area, but it's still awful good. I'll give you some highlights here. On the yearling side, we sold a set of steers that weighed 375, ran 340. Another set of steers that weighed 578, brought 275. A set of heifers that weighed 525, ran 240. A set of heifers that weighed 764, that's the ones that we advertised there, they ended up bringing 228.50. And then on the Packer side, the high selling Packer bull was $1.25 and the high selling Packer cow was $1.15. So, still an awful strong market all the way through. Good. How much rain did you catch, Trent? I didn't ever get exactly the amount, but I'm pretty sure in this area around here, we got about an inch and a half through this whole deal. So, it was awful good. It sure changed things around here. The morning temperature is getting kind of cooler. Feels better. Yes, it does. Yes, it does. Now, what do we got coming this Wednesday? It looks like we got a pretty good sale shaping up so far. We're going to have a set of 70 heifers off one place. They're going to range between 400 to 700. And another couple other deals, it's already contacted me a set of 25 and a set of 30. So, it looks like we're going to have a pretty good line up so far. Good deal. Well, tell everybody how to get a hold of you. You can call me on my cell phone at 918-470-9760 or just call the Barn phone. It'll come directly to this phone.
