How many of you use Bud Williams stockmanship techniques and what are the biggest benefits you see? Those of you that do use it, do you use it every in every situation or do you pick and choose when to use it? I know lots of people that just use some of the concepts that are easily grasped, the discard the concept when they are extremely challenged. I recently shot some video of loading a cow in the pasture. The first time I attempted to load the cow it took some time, I suppose 8 to 10 minutes. I let her out of the trailer to try to capture better footage of the process. The second time it only took about 2 minutes to load her. The true savings was in the time it would have taken me to drive her to a set of corals to load her. For comparison sake, look at the time difference between the 2. If there was a time saving of 70% and you paid a person $20/hour, the savings would be significant. Just to make it simple say that you could cut your time in half and it normally would take you 10hrs to work a set of cows. You would have a $100/person savings everytime you worked cattle.
