Todd Bull Catching............


This one is a lot better, very rough as you can see....we see a lot of Todd's legs, but it shows the bull catcher at work. (didn't realise but these video's take about 1/2 hr to load!)




Below is a photo of the bullcatcher. On the front you can see a steel arm. You race along beside the bull, nudge up against him, with him on your right side and close the mechanical arm down over his neck. This holds him till you walk him to a tree, then you tie him to a tree until you can bring the truck and load him and take him back to the yards. Takes a lot of skill.
