[QUOTE="sstterry, post: 1715988, member: 28912"] I had a few cows and calves at a small spot next to a creek that started getting out this past month. They had been there all summer. Neighbor's bull got in with them and started testing the fence on the far side of the creek (really really old fence). Needless to say, some of them started getting out into my hay pasture next door and eating their fill, and just waiting for me to put them back in. Knowing it would be a couple of weeks before I could get them moved for winter, I put on my waders and ran a poly wire about 100 yards on the far side of the creek, right on the edge of the water. A couple of calves were standing near when I hooked up the battery-powered energizer. Just as I connected the positive terminal I heard a loud pop and a calf let out a bawl. I had to smile. No matter how small the joules, if they hit it while standing in water, it will get their attention. [/QUOTE]
