2023 Autumn Bull Sale Report

Full clearance of 42 bulls

Top $86,000

Average $10,500

On a perfect Autumn Day the Prime Angus Bull Sale was well supported with a full gallery of people. Bulls were auctioned by the Ray White GTSM team, led by James Brown and Michael Glasser

The sale came alive when Lot 14 was auctioned, with a number of buyers hoping to take him home, as the price hit $50,000 then $60,000 and then $70,000 – and when he was knocked down for $86,000 everyone just sat in stunned silence.

Gerald and Lynden Spry and family were the new owners of Lot 14 Prime Sterling Pacific T29 (now to be known as Prime Pure Gold T29). A special Thanks to the Spry Family of Wagga Wagga, NSW, who could see the potential of Lot 14 Prime Sterling Pacific T29, a 14-month-old bull who they intend to market strongly. We wish them every success.  The bidding was strongly contested, and we would also like to thank Jade Park Angus of Hansonville Vic, who were the underbidders who went on to purchase Lot 42 – another Sterling Pacific son.

A number of bulls sold to Angus studs – Spry Angus, Jade Park Angus, Onslow Angus, Malebo Angus and Illa-Langi Angus and we hope to see the Prime breeding go forward into the future.

Lot 23 Prime Sterling Pacific T36 sold as the second highest price for $21,000 to TJ Pierce & KM McConville of Mudgegonga Vic

The volume buyers were The Adam Thomson Family Trust of Strathbogie Vic who purchased 4 bulls to a top of $8,000 and average of $6,500. ND & KE McIntosh of Yackandandah Vic took home 3 bulls for an average of $9330 and Lithgow Pastoral of Swanpoole Vic, took 3 bulls to average $7830 and MJ & BJ Little of Birregurra Vic, took 3 bulls to average $7330.
