Day #1
Most steers don't show up till sale day.
- - - They are sorted by rought size/age/weight - - - I agree

Also #1 - - - After steers are bought they are taken home that day and not left at the salebarn for a few unless you want to pay boarding charges and watch them shrink like hell eating old cane hay and wheat straw.

Also Day #1
I agree with the idea of letting the kid visit with the salebarn head guy about where the livestock came from and what the intent is in mind with the purchase to see if he can't direct to some of a certain birth date or weight closer to what we are after.
- - - I disagree - Don't embarass the kid for a few $$$$

Start with a lower quality calf and you won't have to pay market price either. You'll have less invested into a gauranteed money loosing proposition.

Matter of fact, most of those yard guys don't know squat about good cattle.
