[QUOTE="flaboy, post: 91499, member: 1726"] I have two pair. Basically different brands. I haven't used them but maybe once in the last 5 years. Used to use them everytime. We also used to drench when worming. I alternate now between injection and pour on wormers. I usually don't have to mess with the heads much anymore. If I do, I usually just use my thumb and index finger, grab the nose and pull the head to one side. Only a couple of time were they able to get away. Now the bulls I don't even try that one as they can throw me across the pen and have. I just put halters on two young heifer this weekend in a head catch. Actually went easier than I thought. You really have to watch those flying heads. They will knock you out or knock your teeth out. Be real careful. The fun part was when I released them and held onto the lead ropes...YeeHaw! It is pretty amazing just how strong a 500 pound heifer is. I won though as I managed to get the rope around a tree on the way by :lol: [/QUOTE]
