[QUOTE="CowCop, post: 61826, member: 1049"] This is the method I have used on "escapees" ( usually in the spring ). I usually use the mother of the yearling that has runaway OR one of my halter trained show calves as the "bait". The escapee usually shows up within 60 minutes of me leading the "bait" cow to the woods, and then I walk them back all the way to the farm and into the corral. This is usually when I am wishing for a horse to quicken the process..... Method 2: I have put the non-halter trained mothers in a stock trailer and driven it to the area where the runaway was last seen--open the back door, let them hollar for awhile and usually the missing cows/calves/steer/bull shows up and jumps in the trailer to be with his friends/mom etc Last fall I had to drive the trailer home with the steer chasing it cause he wouldn't get IN it and it was getting dark. Every escapee heads for the golf course that is 4 miles away--usually in April when THEIR grass is greening up and ours is still mud. Do what you can--and GOOD LUCK~!! CowCop [/QUOTE]
