TDA 18TH ANNUAL CONVENTION AUCTIONS * AUGUST 2016
1
Welcome to the 18th Annual Texas Deer Association’s Superior Genetics Deer Auction
and Select Sale!
We could not be more excited about the energy, commitment, and quality of animals
our consignors have brought to the auctions this year. Our industry is back! We have
weathered one heck of a storm over the past year. New regulations have finally been
adopted – restoring certainty back to many of our breeders. A new, brighter future lies
ahead for the Texas Deer industry.
Our consignors at these auctions have shown their support of TDA by not backing
down in terms of the quality of deer they have consigned to the sales. Evidence of that
lies on every page throughout this auction catalog.
With that said, due to the timing of the new CWD rules, the auction committee at TDA
agreed that we should give our industry leaders some latitude to work within the lot
construction in order to facilitate better communication between the consignor and
the buyer. In many cases, during the construction of this auction catalog, live testing
at consignor facilities may have occurred – creating change in breeder category status
from TC2 to TC1. Therefore, we would ask that you pay very close attention during the sale for verbal changes to the lot status
and overall consignments.
In addition, many of our consignors have made concessions in terms of when you will be required or able to take delivery of the
deer you purchase; the amount of money owed to TDA at the time of the auction; and/or any money back guarantee’s for deer
purchased that may remain at a lower status facility.
If you are a buyer at these auctions, it is imperative that you are clear on any terms and/or conditions that a particular consignor
has set on their lot/lots. Please understand that announcements from the auction block will take precedence over printed material
in the catalog.
As always, if you have any questions about our auctions, please feel free to contact myself or Bob Price, TDA President and
Auction Committee Chairman.
We look forward to seeing you all at the best deer auctions in Texas!
