it says there will be all most unlimited access to all donors, breds, show heifers, and promotional bulls...etc. Just read Dave's statement on his website.

You guys do realize that a large portion of the cattle that are on Dave's sales are from other producers  that he has gathered up and then works with and sells on his sales. I would venture a guess that not half of them are actually Guyer bred cattle. There's more than likely more money to be made that way and maybe less work. I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with that, there are plenty of traders in the business.

I doubt Grizzly will be in the offering...he said the mommas are going, didnt say anything about the bulls...and I bet there will probably be a few mommas hanging around the place...nothing against Dave, I think he is a pretty upstanding guy, just the way it typically goes in this business.

Anyone else notice that there were no mature cow lots everything was either a donor or a bred or open heifer in the female portion.

Is that a bad thing? Or is that just something you noticed. Just curious

yes, did you read Dave's letter, and the sale manager's letter??  Twice in there it already stated that the mature cows had already been sold, as well as all the recips.... 

Then later in the book, it lists the buyer's of quite a few of the recips--  as in the lots geared towards pick of the farm, where it listed what recip was carrying what calf.. and they winning bidder would get their option of calves from that property...

Did not read the letter in the catalog.    Did it mention why some of the bulls or semen interests aren't in the sale as well?

Sometimes when any partnerships are involved, it's just not like you can drop out of the deal without mutual agreement about who will be the new partner/partners. Dave Guyer is a great promoter and if you bought into a bull of his or he into you, you just don't go out and find a Guyer type partner.
