Pictures are impossible to tell the nitty gritty from.
The cat I posted has some coffee&cream colors in his belly that hurt the clarity. The camera flash makes it look better than it really is. Going on the picture at face value = I, II, but in person though it's probably a low II. With its overall dark cast, semi heavy heft, and II belly, it will probably bring more on the Taxi Market Than in the fur market.
Camerons is a clinic on fur prep and presentation. If you put up cats, learn how to do it this way.
The back is probably a semi, but the belly is heavy, long, and silky. When a buyer pops it, the belly will be a little narrower than appears here. It is also a pale cat, with pale transitions from the belly to the sides, that helps too. With four piles this one will go in top pile most of the time.
The British Columbia cats are heavy but appear to be dark and narrow. If they don't come out of the finnishing process any better than they look now, they will probably go on the low end of the Heavy piles, just above the lactating females, and brown bellies. The cat on the right in the picture of them laying on the ground might be a Taxi canidate.
I've already looked at the photos of Pro Hunts cat a couple of weeks ago, so I won't comment on that one till some of you other guys look at it.
Remember these are my opinions, and I'm no stranger to being wrong. Its the discussion, and sharing of info that improves our lives, and makes our time on the internet actually worth something.
