Jack 99. The guy that did that for a living around here was referred to as "the man with the golden arm". He was called by other names when he was not around.
Now guys, where I am from and what I do for a living, this stuff is a way of life.
You want to see something wild? Go to a Vet. when he /she is semen evaluating a bull, or watch me pull a calf out of a first calf heifer. OB chain,come-along and a Prayer. This goes on from 2am to 6am. Heifers can't have trouble in the daylight.

Speaking of artificial insemination of cows...
The assignment in one of my college courses was to do an "informative" speech on our area of study or expertise. In the class was a guy who had done AI on cattle in his home country of Botswana.
For his speech, he had some of the equipment as a visual aid. Included were some, ahem... "cartridges" for the semen gun.
One of the students had a question, and in giving the answer, our speaker placed the semen gun against a full-scale drawing of a cow's plumbing he had made on the chalkboard. He pressed the trigger, and... Let's just say he had to go down the hall to the restroom to get some paper towels.
It's clear that he violated rules #1 and 2 of safe semen gun handling:
1. All semen guns are always loaded.
2. Do not allow the muzzle to cover anything you are not willing to inseminate.

Boy, that's the truth. And they can never get into trouble anywhere near a barn, or even out in the open. They generally like the middle of a briar patch or so deep in a creek bottom they have to be floated out on a raft.
I once used a hay fork on the front of a tractor to lift a distressed heifer out of a briar patch, and then used a chain on a six-wheeler to pull the dead calf out of the birth canal to save the heifer. Man, what a day that was with everyone else out of town and no help in sight.

JHS, there's a great little cattleman's school in Kansas (I just happen to be a "gadiatie" of) that will teach you how to deliver them critters without the come-along and the 4 wheel drive! They also teach AI and preg checking. I was a ranch manager in another life and agree with all you have to say, always have the calves in the worst weather and worst possible places. Had a friend who had 20 cows did invetro and made more off of his few than the guy he worked for who had over 1000 head! These city boys need to spend some time on the farm. I have fond memories of standing in cowsh@t all day giving shots and grubbing. Have some great stories for my son someday! It may not be glamorus but it's an honest living with clear lines of right and wrong. For anyone who's still doing it, my hats off to you!
