This was the best set of overall bulls that BoPat Farms has sold to date. The bulls were in excellent condition. Of special interest were sons of B/R Extra 815. A bull that has helped add new dimension to the BoPat program. Again this year, BoPat offered complete performance information, along with scan data. The EPD's on this set of bulls was outstanding, especially the yearling weight EPD's. The BoPat program is quickly becoming recognized as one of the best complete performance programs in the South.
