Western Montana's 2012 Angus Tour was well attended in spite of smoke filled skys in the West and concern of new fires across the rest of the state. Attitudes are good considering the summer we've had. One thing for sure...everyone agrees we need rain!
There was a lot of talk about the price of bulls this fall and next spring. My conclusion....it's anybody's guess but the general consensus is they will sell well given current and future cow numbers and demad for replacement females.
It seems to me we are at a time in the market cycle were the good ones will comand premium pirces. Quality should rule and buyers could be more selective as we move forward in an uncertian economy. Quality was certianly the rule of the day at all of the tour stops. Four busses and lots of cars and trucks in the caravan proved to be a good time with great eats and conversation along the way. Some had more fun that others but if you weren't on the tour you'll never know who they were.
