[QUOTE="kscowboy, post: 627837, member: 6726"] Cattle skin is a lot thicker than horses , horses are used to sitting still and being messed with , cattle are not. Do you have a vet ? If not get one , call them and tell them you need vaccs , how many steers , and what the weights are. Most will set you up with the right , and best meds. If you try to give them shots without safe restraint you are foolish and will get hurt or whoever is helping you will get hurt or your cattle will get hurt. That's about as plain as anyone can say it . You need the restraint to take your time and do it correctly , to know your in the right area , not in a vein , not squirting thru the other side of your pinch , heck , I've done it all those and if not restrained it would have been a nightmare. If you seriously don't believe the advise youre getting just take a sharp nail out with you and give em a poke and see what happens. [/QUOTE]
