[QUOTE="grubbie, post: 448327, member: 5478"] Had the same problem two years ago. Trying to load him by myself, or even entering the corral, he kept coming at me. I took a sorting paddle and smacked him across the face every time he came at me (hard) and after a few times he went and stood in the corner. I then built a small pen with portable panels in the corner of the corral, which I could not get him into by myself. So every chance I got I dumped a little cake in that pen (for about a week, morning and night, got him in the habit of coming in). He got used to coming in to get his cake with no interference. One day I closed it up behind him with a rope I had tethered to one of the panels. (Every time I would try to get behind him he ran out). I now had him in about a 12 by 12 pen. I could reach in with the hotshot and he had no choice but to load. Facilities make the difference. These were not my main corrals, just a big "catch 'em" corral in on of the larger pastures. So I had to improvise. MAybe some suggestions to help. Good luck [/QUOTE]
