It happens. I can't believe the number of ets that still use a knife on those big guys. I have gone to only using a bander. I have done 1000 pounders that just walk out of the chute and go to eating. The vet that works a local sale barn won't use a bander on anything under about 600#. Sad to say the last feeders bought there that needed his attention turned out to be a disaster.

I just wanted to stand up and scream at some of those producers today for letting their cattle bring $50-65/cwt just beause they didn't vaccinate or castrate an weaned them on the truck. The economy may be tough but, those producers don't have a chance at making a profit.
