Happy boys returning to the paddock after TSU collection and a fly tag.
Amazing how fast a season can turn around when it wants to!
This year we offer the “First Release” offering from Dangarfield Big Casino (PS)
They say the sign of a top sire is the line he produces.
Check out some of these sons (especially Lot 6) and see the stamp he has put on them.
Big volume, easy doing, placid natured. Loose right through and trim underneath.
Time for some data collection today and final time being in the yards before the auction.
Final weights, muscle and fat scanning and scrotal to be done later today.
Supplementary sheets should be ready by tomorrow.
If anyone would like to have a casual inspection this afternoon feel free to stop by from 3-5pm
It might even coincide with beer o’clock?!?!😜
We had our best heifer classification to date earlier this week.
80% classification rate
70% poll
All were PTIC before being considered to be eligible.
It was a great day had by all.
Only downer for the day was knowing it was Russell Gray’s final inspection of our cattle.
Always enjoyed your visit thanks Russell and after 36 years in the job we hope enjoy your change of pace.
And the young guns turn on Saturday
Lot numbering done, now time for a catalogue to be compiled
A good way to finish off the week, lot numbering the sale team for September 5th 2023.
Plenty of nuts, butts and guts in this team!😎
Driving out today was a nice way to finish off going past some of the young guns for 2023
Pasture fed only.
Sometimes is good to pull up and enjoy the view.
Mustering some of the commercial herd for branding and fly tagging earlier this week.
Dangarfield is enjoying a great summer.

Lot 41 Drax (P)
Check out the skin on this bloke!
Dark, slick and fine hair, while still having a trim sheath!
Drax is a real eye catcher and he draws your attention out in the paddock. Watch him stop and stand proud, something all the good ones do!
By the one of our “First Release” sires Bunda Nugget (PS) and out of a Quarterback daughter.
She is a full ET sister to our show cow Zoe (P) and she also has a son catalogued.
Drax (P) scanned 132 EMA,
12 & 8 for fat
And scored 91% for morphology.
Pretty much a perfect combination.
Would be great to see this bloke go on to do stud duties for someone!
