[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1733698, member: 24027"] I have the Calf Catch and love it. Yes, it does say up to 200 lbs, but the hook is pliable enough I can bend it out a little for larger calves. [USER=40418]@simme[/USER] is right, catching is the easy part. It's generally a 2-person job unless it's a newborn or very small calf. I'll catch it and have someone else ready with the lasso. Once we get it down, we'll switch to a halter so it doesn't choke. What you're describing sounds like the Hook Doctor, with a hook on each end. I bought one for a friend of mine and she's only used it once but liked it. You can (theoretically) hook the calf by the leg and secure the other hook in a utility hole on a UTV.
