i get a call from a friend to go and clear his fence rows.. i said i would like to see them first. he say's ok. he then tells me, he's in a law suet over the fence rows being cleared with the neighbor... i said still would like to see them... we set a time, i go over.... we take the tour through the pastures out to the fence in question,no big deal... twenty trees to be cut. we start cutting and got them down, still no problems get loaded up, as we start out the guy is in the skid steer feeding hay to the bulls...we get to the pasture crossing as soon as we get into the pasture with the bulls they attack the skid steer knocking the guy down between the bucket and the body of the skid steer. he starts yelling for help...one bull dives into the skid steer head first,luckily the skid steer shut off....this pins the guys leg and arm beneath this bull.me and the wife get the other bulls back from here and pin them off in the barn, he tells me then to get the gun from under seat of his truck and shoot the bull stuck in the skid steer. we do this, but he still cant get out... i take the guys back hoe and drag this bull out... took us fifteen minutes to get the guys leg out, and he had a torn ligament in his leg and broken arm, other then that he will be fine...long crazy story short, i then tell him there's no way i will cut trees in the pasture with the bulls he wants down... i pass.. enough excitement for a week. as crazy as this is,i didn't get one picture of it. but we got a good laugh afterwards... whats the odds of a 1500 pound bull diving into the bobcat?
