The high quality of these animals make them attractive for commercial cutting due to superior chop and/or steak yields. Prior to the auction the animals will be weighed and graded.  This information will be available on a bidder's information sheet given out at the auction.   Buyers will be presented with a framed photograph and certificate of support. Buyers of Champion & Reserve animals will have their photo taken with the 4-H or FFA member and their animal.  Photos may be used as you wish.
