  • A beautiful day greeted a good crowd for the 6th Angus of Distinction Sale. Cattle were presented in top order with the usual top notch hospitality and lunch. The hosts Circle AK Ranch, Galt, CA and L & N Angus, Lodi, CA along with Vintage Angus, Modesto, CA; Cal Poly, Pomona, CA; Chase Classic Angus, Torrance, CA; Oak Ridge Angus, Calistoga, CA and HAVE Angus, Wilton, CA had everything in tip top order. Demand was active throughout the day, however, many good buys were made from the beginning to the end. Cost of feed certainly played into the results at the end of the day. Quality received for the dollar spent was exceptional. A job well done.
