2009 North
Carolina
Angus
Association’s
Out West
Sale
By:
Suzanne
Brewer,
Secretary
 I
think Out
West Sale
means rain!!
If memory
serves me
correctly,
the weather
was usually
better when
the sale was
in March; we
usually
enjoyed an
early spring
weekend.
Since we’ve
moved to
April, it’s
“April
Showers”.
But after
late 2007
and early
2008, let’s
not complain
about the
rain.
We had a
really good
set of
cattle; not
as many as
in the past
years, but
really good
condition,
good bred
cows and
some
excellent
calves at
side. We
sold 46 lots
for an
average of
$1,320.00,
sale gross
on
$60,700.00.
Keaton
Vandemark,
Vandemark
Angus of
Spring Hope,
consigned
the top
selling
cow/calf
pair. Lot 16
was an OCC
Kickboxer
cow with an
OCC Missing
Link heifer
calf born in
December at
her side.
She was A-I
bred to OCC
Magnitude
and is due
in December.
James Grant,
Kendleton,
Texas,
purchased
this three
in one
package for
$2,600.00.
Cow/calf
pairs
averaged
$1,662.00.
David Ray of
Double Down
Ranch,
Marion,
consigned
the top
selling bred
cows. Eddie
Leagans of
Mocksville
bought lots
18 & 19 for
$1,300.00
each. Lot 18
was a GAR
Consensus
daughter and
lot 19 was a
BT Ultravox
daughter,
both were
A-I bred and
then pasture
exposed and
examined
safe. Bred
cows
averaged
$1,170.00.
There were
15 lots of
exceptional
bred
heifers. Lot
50 consigned
by Andy
House, House
Farms,
Smithfield,
was the top
selling lot,
she sold to
Danzel Fox,
New Holland,
Pa., for
$2,200.00. A
Rito 1I2
daughter she
was safe to
HF Farm
Hand, a Boyd
on Target
son. Bred
heifers
averaged
$1,257.00.
Cool Spring
Plantation,
Halifax
always
consigns
good bred
and open
heifers. The
top selling
open heifer
was one of
their
consignments.
Barry Gray,
Lexington,
purchased
Lot 45 for
$975.00. She
was a Mytty
In Focus

of a Sugar
