The new and improved Good Morning thread!

Finally caught my calf tonight that has been a renegade for 3 weeks now. I got him with a tranquilizer dart, let him sit for about 10 minutes then walked up and got a rope on his head and another around his back legs, he seemed sound asleep. 2 minutes later all hell broke loose. 500 pounds of pissed off calf woke up, I knocked him down but lost my heel rope in the process. He got back up and charged me, damn near got me too, you cant pull slack when they are coming at you. Got him Snubbed to a tree. My Dad backed a trailer up to him, we got gates around him and eventually got him on the trailer in the dark. I knew I should have had a horse but I expected him to sleep longer, a horse would have made it a hell of alot easier and safer and I would have had a lot more control. The son of a bitch was about to get lead poisoning if this didn't work.
