Should no if it’s going out the side before you start pulling.I couldn't have put it better myself.
It is quite surprising the good one can do if used patiently, sympathetically and intermittently - not 1 massive rive, but a series of contraction enhancements
THE most important thing to know about a calving jack, (mines a Vink too) is when to stop pulling, and take it out the side.
Ceasareans are not nice, but a damn sight better than a dead calf/ cow that can't stand/ dead cow.
A calving jack/ vink/ pulley is to assist the cow if it's gonna be a bit tight, not to drag the poor little barsteward out of the old bitch at all costs.
