This was another very strong sale for the Pieper Annual Fall Run Sale. Mark and Deb Pieper, along with their son, Tate, hosted another big crowd. The cattle have a tremendous amount of eye appeal, with a lot of natural thickness and muscle bred in. The commercial customers see the value of having Mark at the auction barns bidding on their calves. These are good ranch horses, and their horse sale gets stronger each year. As always, the food was fantastic.
