Charolais Friends:
Welcome back to the 6th Annual Wright Charolais Bull Sale. It just doesn’t seem
possible that this outstanding bull sale started in 2008 with Derry and Mary and
their first offering of only 23 bulls in that first bull sale catalog! But it is interesting
to go back and read that first catalog and look at what I wrote in that first letter.
“I want to welcome you to the first of which I’m sure will be MANY
YEARS of Wright Charolais Bull Sales.”
“as you get to know him(Derry), you will realize that he has an intense
desire to do everything and anything RIGHT.”
“as soon as he figures out how to do it right, he starts planning to do it
even BIGGER and BETTER.”
“so plan on a LARGER number of bulls next year and more QUALITY
each and every year.”
“this bull sale will become a SOURCE on which you can depend”
It has been an exciting trip as Derry, Chris and Cody have moved this sale forward.
At that first sale in
2008 we sold 23 bulls for an average “by the nose” of $3,448 with a
high of $25,000
2009 - 46 bulls at $2,484, with a high of $8,250
2010 - 55 bulls average $3,270 with a high of $10,000
2011 - 83 bulls did $4,137 with a high of $40,000
2012 - 110 bulls through the ring for an average of $4,353 with a high
of $32,500
Everyone is always afraid to print the averages when they get high. My take on it is
why would you want to go to a bull sale that doesn’t keep improving? It could only
mean one thing — bull buyers don’t like the product and don’t come back! This sale
has been built on “customer satisfaction.” Yes there will be bulls in everyone’s price
range. In 2012, 39 head sold from $2,000 to $2,900 and 15 head in the teens. Come
and take a look at what they will present to you. You will like these bulls.
If I can be of further assistance to you please give me a call.
