Re: Busy again

ah bulls are no problem. They will back off to a good staring session. You just need to stare right in their eyes and walk towards them, staring at them intently, right in the eye, square, wide eyed, not blinking, just straight at them. Don't falter, don't blink, drill into their minds, intense, aggresive, confident. Eye to eye, power, banish the fear, let the negativity go, feel dominant, devoted to winning the mental encounter, un-nerving the beast, man versus bulk. Think, give it the big 'I am, I can overcome'. But take a spare pair of pants just in case.

Hmmm, Still not sure about that I am 6ft 2 and weigh 13 stone v's 6ft at the shoulder 2 ton Bull trying to protect his 'nice' little herd of cows..... He has the support from his nice lady friends in the field (and motivation, testosterone levels are high this time of year)..... I thought it better just to let him be, have you seen the way they stare at you?

Re: Busy again

I forget which it is, the Bull or the Cows, that you are OK going into the field with as long as you are not pregnant. Don't suppose it applies to you guys.

Re: Busy again

Many a ' so called brave person' has done just that Boddie and lived to regret it. PLAY SAVE DON'T GO WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD ie STAY AWAY FROM BULLS. That's the safest thing and the most sensible.

Bulls are OK on their own, my friend used to work as a farm hand and we used to ride him! (I was much younger then and less weighty) But soon as it was 'meeting the ladies' time, he wouldn't let you any where near!
It's the horses you really have to watch though, they lull you into a false sense of security. I have been bitten, kicked into a lake (kicked just short of some place best not to be kicked), and chased by them!

.

It makes a difference if it's a dairy bull rather than a beef bull tough doesn't it? And what about those charoais beasties aren't they supposed to be a bit on a violent side male or female?
