Much like the sales last spring, this event took on much the same look as activity was strong on the top 30% of the sale. Mytty In Focus and Bon View New Design 1407 progeny commanded strong attention. Calving ease was active. Circle AK Ranch, Galt, CA; L & N Angus, Lodi, CA were joined by Cal Poly, Pomona, CA; Chase Classic Angus, Torrance, CA and Matheson Ranch, Lockeford, CA. Bulls were presented in super fashion. Hospitality at its usual best. Taking five bulls or more were Bisla Cattle Co., Linden, CA; Buscher Ranch, Bonanza, OR; Cardoza Livestock, Los Banos, CA; Fields Livestock, Castro Valley, CA; Dennis Kiely, Escalon, CA and Richard White, Atwater, CA. The nineteen bred commercial heifers from Matheson Ranch sold at $1,235 each to McDonald Ranches, Petaluma, CA. Indeed a day that a bunch of quality was purchased at somewhat conservative prices. A day that paid you well to be on the seats.

Another great day for this reputation program. Leading commercial ranchers and purebred breeders reaped the genetics offered at the Borror’s 33rd production sale. A beautiful fall day greeted a big crowd. Bulls sold at a rapid fire pace with Boston Ranch, Exeter, CA; Marshall Hendren, Bodega Bay, CA; Boekenoogen Ranch, Carmel Valley, CA; Camatta Ranch, Santa Margarita, CA; Murrer Ranch, Susanville, CA and Ken Morrison, La Grand, CA all taking six or more bulls. Strong interest as usual, for the low Birth EPD bulls. Tehama retained 1/4 semen interest in all the bulls sold. Our hats are off to Bill, Sandra, Kevin, Linda, Eric and the entier Borror family and crew for a job well done.
