Strong, Steady March Bull Sale In Springfield

Patrick Davis, University of Missouri Extension livestock field specialist, described the 107th Southwest Missouri All Breeds Performance Tested Bull Sale in Springfield as “a strong, steady sale.”

At the event, 24 bulls sold for an average of $7,058 each. While this is about $70 less per bull than the average from the fall 2025 sale, it was $1,600 higher than the spring 2025 sale average. The sale included 22 Angus bulls, which averaged $6,895 each, and two Sim-Angus bulls that averaged $8,850 per animal.

Davis notes that the high-selling Angus bulls came from established consignors. The highest-selling Angus bull, offered by Naylor Angus in Buffalo, Mo., was purchased by James Leuker of Louisburg, Mo., for $9,000. The second-highest-selling Angus bull, from Jerry Pyle of XL Angus in Seneca, Mo., went to Dale Dunseth of Halfway, Mo., for $8,800.
