Kent and Janet LaDue, along with their family, raise their cattle on their ranch, Sunrise Angus, near Meadow, South Dakota. For the first time, they offered strictly two-year-old Angus bulls. These were high-performing bulls that could cover a lot of country and maintain good health.
Many folks on the seats were return buyers, including those looking at and bidding on the replacement heifers.
