BullZeye Sale, Capella
The BullZeye sale held each October offers bulls from some of the industry’s leading studs. In the past year vendor successes have been verified again with top prices in sale rings and several commercial championships awards. Each year the sale’s reputation grows as a reliable source of leading Droughtmaster genetics. The line-up of sires are right where you want them…. 760kg’s, 22mth’s, 131 EMA (past averages), and this year’s draft will be no different. The sup sheet on the 90 plus sires this year will include the fat scans and last 100-day weight gain results for a more informed choice. There is plenty of value for those chasing a few, and the odd young stud sire if you’re looking to the solid genes on offer. The big plus when you’re buying from BullZeye is the female lines that the bulls are drawn from. Keeping consistent, fertile and functional cowherds are key central breeding objectives. With decades of selection from cattlemen and women with commercial herds, the important criteria for breeding beef industry focused sires are backed with real knowledge. The Capella undercover arena will again accommodate the sale on Friday 15th October. If you can’t attend remote bidding can be accessed via Elite Livestock Auctions and there will be transport assistance offered to a number of local centres including Charters Towers. A big breakfast and refreshments are available from 7.30 am on the day. Please contact Georgie Connor (GDL): 0428347550, or Matt Beard (Nutrien): 0428765687 www.bullzeyedroughtmasters.com
