[QUOTE="Cattle Rack Rancher, post: 48240, member: 245"] When we use the scalpel, that calf is in the headgate. I have one of my legs wrapped around one of the calfs back legs and I'm pulling the tail straight over the top of his back and hauling him forward as much as he can go. Its pretty rare that I lose my grip. We've castrated at least a couple of hundred calves since we switched over from the burdizzo and my brother has never cut himself yet. I can see, however, if you were working in an area where the calf was less restrained that you could hurt yourself pretty easily. [/QUOTE]
