[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 622367, member: 9"] "Cattle crush" (aka "squeeze chute"). With longhorns what is NOT appropriate or functional is the conventional "Head Gate" device. The "Medina Hinge" concept (simplicity: use 2 gates close together...one is secured, the second one is used to push the animal next to the fixed one). You can see our set-up on our website...we have a number of photos of our "structures", etc...just have to browse thru the photo galleries. Anyway, the Medina Hinge concept has been used very successfully with Longhorn cattle and no injuries due to getting horns broken or mashed, etc. Bill [/QUOTE]
