The guy that helps us and our neigbor is going up for a week to clip for the sale and he is in the ring or a ringman. Do you need something? His name is Charlie Tiner.

I have a close family friend that works there, it appears to be a well run facility that produces some really nice cattle and hay as well.  It will be interesting to see what kind of prices the cattle bring since the ppp is down right now.

Des,

     I have my eye on equipment rather than any livestock...Can't afford to feed anything ;)
Here is the "items of interest" list, I am sure it will grow prior to sale day. Depending on the sale prices it may shrink drastically too :o
12 bale hay van
3 bale van
Dodge flatbed
28' stock trailer
hog trailers
batwing
panels
aluminum boat


There is an attorney/ rancher that I do some buying for as well and he is looking at hay equipment and the JD 7510 FWA 

Matt,
    I am not so sure they will be quite the producers that they have been known to be in the past... I think the last few years has been pretty painful for them. I am told the equipment is an absolute sale, no reserve.   They used to put up some nice hay, and I used to haul some out of there until they quoted me a price over the phone, then when I got out there they had jacked up the price. That was the last time I bought any hay from them.
