I was slick shear some Angus calves for the summer and got half of a bevelled comb right in the forehead. Funny thing is I fell over backwards, almost blacked out, and reached up to find my face covered in blood while my buddy was talking on his phone on the other end of the barn and didn't even see it happen.

I don't have the site or number handy, but I am sure that someone on here has that info.
