Once more, we had a smaller offering we decided to go with lesser numbers due to the current drought and fire conditions affecting most of our country at the present time. This year our sale received an 85% clearance rate. Bowe and Lidbury were very pleased with the clearance rate of our sale considering the conditions most of our country is presently facing. The agents were most impressed with the prices of the females achieved in this hard season. Buyers came from mainly the south of the state, Central Coast, Sydney area and we yet again had great local support from our locals and repeat buyers. Unfortunately, this year we didn’t receive our usual spring rain in the lead up to our sale as previous years.
