Pretty familiar face here! 
If you have ever sat in the crowd at a BoPat sale, then you will recognize this gentleman from working ringside! Tucker Kail is a great friend and we couldn’t be prouder to have him apart of our team. Best of luck Tucker!
Tucker Kail wanted to be a livestock auctioneer for as long as he can remember.
Last fall, his lifelong ambition took a major leap forward when he competed in Greenville, Tennessee, earning a coveted qualification for the World Livestock Auctioneer Championship semifinals.
His advice to aspiring auctioneers is clear and grounded: stay humble, never stop learning and surround yourself with those who push you to improve.
Amid record-high cattle prices and an ever-evolving industry, he sees the auction method — and the auctioneer's role — as more vital than ever to true price discovery and the future of livestock marketing.
Watch him and 30 other top bid callers compete in June.
