It's for bulls alright but not for the nose. It turns bulls into bullettes.

A burdizer crushes the cords and is a much simpler tool, I don't see anything there that would do that.

That's a different tool and much newer. You're comparing a screwdriver to a crescent wrench and saying the crescent wrench can't remove screws. So what. :confused3:

So that tool in the picture is much too complicated to do a simple job. It would be a real experience trying to use it on a bull

The bull calf is typically in a pen or shoot and can't go anywhere. You're not going to be crushing veins on a bull out in the field either. He's not going to let you get that close. It's done when they're young calves. That's what you'd do if you're raising steer for meat anyway. You usually don't "steer" a full grown bull. It wouldn't be a bull unless you're using him for breading.

In earlier days, they just used a knife.

Yes I have done hundreds of them, and that thing, would be for something else and not that. Ed
