Do not hesitate to put your name on all bulls you have an interest in, because once you fill your order you are not obligated to bid on anymore bulls. Ÿ Your evaluation of the bulls will help determine the sale order. We will start the sale with the bull who has the most slips, and the second bull to sale will have second most slips, and so fourth.. Make your selection before 1:00 pm. Ÿ As each bull come up for sale, the auctioneer will announce the names of the bidders for that particular bull. Once the bidders have been located they can remain at their table, hold up there bid cards, and bid on the bulls from the comfort of their seat. As the auctioneer raises the bid in $100 dollars increments the bidders are asked to continue to hold their cards up until the bid on the bull exceeds the maximum price he or she may wish to pay. The auctioneer will continue raising they bid until only one bid card remains aloft. In case all bibber numbers are lowered at the same time, the bidder with the lowest number on his bid card will be the purchaser of the bull. Ÿ Bulls with only one base price slip will be sold to that person at the base price printed on the Supplement Sheet. Ÿ If you have any questions on our equal opportunity buying procedure please call or ask at the sale site.
