[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1511703, member: 18945"] It, to a large degree, answers the question you asked. Tho I don'tknow for sure, the pic that Silver posted looks like a Dr Frank's calf Jack. Mine looks just like it and is a Dr Frank's, designed by Dr B.N. Frank DVM. To be truthful, I do not like to put a heavy bred in a squeeze chute unless I have a good reason to. My Priefert chute's side door is hard to unlatch if it has much pressure on it and if one goes down in the chute, they sink further and further down in the vee with each exhale. I saw a heavy bred suffocate for the same reason in a vee shaped alley at a ranch in N Texas some years ago and they lost both the cow and calf (did a c section as soon as they got the alley apart--the cow had already suffocated. I agree on both issues. It looked like an easy pull. It would have been nice if they nixed the music and recorded audio. I assumed the 'big guy' was the vet and he was instructing the female assistant on how to use the calf jack. About 4:15, you see what appears to be him motioning for her to lower the rod so she is pulling down and not straight out..it's right after he drops the stick on the floor. [/QUOTE]
