Speaking of sneaking up and hand pulling calves, it may be worth mentioning that one should never put the other loop of the OB chains around your wrist while hooking up the first foot (or at any other time during this stealthy operation)  :lol:  I know of a couple of people who did this only to find themselves hooked on hard and fast to the hind end of an irritated, rampaging cow and actually got hurt fairly good.
