[QUOTE="kjonesel, post: 1221421, member: 16842"] Two years ago my son and I bought a cattle working system (pen, sweep, alley way, access gates) from Chubby Baird in Middleburg Kentucky for a little less than $4,000.00. It sat on pallets till last August just prior to my son leaving for college. He spent several days making a limestone pad and setting the system up so that I would be able to work cattle when he wasn't there. It has been a Godsend. I am able to work the cattle alone, since they are securely confined they remain calm it just wonderful. I'm thankful I have such a considerate son and had the funds to purchase the system. I have a neighbor who is a few years older and he sold his cows after he had his leg broke in seven places because he was trying to work his cattle with light weight corral panels and a head gate. I would suspect he would have been better off spending the money on a system rather than a hospital visit and the subsequent follow up visits to the doctor. Anybody who is on the fence about a cattle working system should reconsider and just purchase one as there are always people on the lookout for used systems if you decide to get out of the business or sell it.
