Many repeat buyers were once again gathered for the annual Sandmeier Charolais Bull Sale. Up and down the line, this was an outstanding set of bulls. This sale offers three different age groups, but still the quality stays to the very end of the sale. The prices were very steady, with some higher selling lots in each class. Outside of the wind that day, this was a very good day for the Sandmeier family.
