[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1679447, member: 24027"] I am so unsophisticated! I have an OK Corral portable corral/chute that is perfectly fine for smaller groups and a friend of mine brings over his big hydraulic portable corral for when we work the entire herd. There is no sweep or tub. Simply apply pressure, slowly, to the cattle and they will follow the outline of the corral into the holding pen, which is separated from & into the alley by another gate. Close the gate. Filter them along the alley. Separate them lined up in the alley with bars. Run 'em through. When working small calves, cram 3 or 4 of them in the chute at a time & open the side door after administering shots. Safety first - absolutely. But even with cattle that are a little on the wild side or not accustomed to being worked, read their signals and work with them. Don't apply pressure in their blind spot. Go slow and you'll actually save time. [/QUOTE]
