[QUOTE="DavisBeefmasters, post: 648014, member: 2263"] From a safety standpoint -- you really need a squeeze. Get a manual squeeze chute (perhaps you have an equipment auction or something like that near you -- or ask around and you may be able to pick up someone's old one at a reasonable price)... we have a Powder River Manual Squeeze with a right hand exit (I'm glad for the side exit because some just won't go forward when you open the head catch). ...we used to wrestle calves for castration, etc. because we were too cheap to buy a calf table. Eventually we bought one and now the only question is why we didn't get one sooner! Question for you: How expensive would it be to replace either one of you? Now how expensive does that squeeze look? Squeeze chutes should be mandatory... leave the creative cowboy up methods to those who are younger and heal faster! Good luck. [/QUOTE]
