[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1407677, member: 27490"] I got my training from Kris- Fire Sweep Simmental. But since I am a beginner, I might be able to help. This fall I broke 8 calves. I started them in the first month after birth. I am 66 so not going to wrestle with them after they get some size on them. I think being calm and going easy with them helps a lot. I never lose my patience. Just work with them and let them them be calves. I noticed that if they get rowdy, it is best to release the tension on their halter and give them some time to relax. If one takes off, it works great to get to their side and pull their head from an angle perpendicular to them. If you get caught behind them, you better be a bear if you intend to hold them. [/QUOTE]
