Hmmm even a blind pig can find an acorn once in awhile I guess-better send a catalogue.

Try a rider cage we used them in the feedlots i have worked in including a large bull test at strathmore. Simply weld a cage out of drill stem make the outside panels 8 ft long and 6 ft. high make two of these then weld together like a box make it about 3 ft. wide. then wend some sucker rod to the sides and top make the spacing so they cant get stuck, grind off sharp points so they can't rub off the hair. the bars on top won't allow the other bulls to mount and the side bars won't let the other bulls to work him over. Usally the sweetass will hide in it when the riding starts and it is tough for the other bulls to get at him. As for why they ride, it is usally is a dominance issuse he is low on the pecking order but he could also he smaller or weaker. He may be a good breeding bull just not the most agressive. He will sneak into feed and sleep with the other bulls, but if they hassle him he has a place to hide . I have found it to be much more effective than pulling the bull out. But if they won't leave him alone that is the other option. I hope this helps you out.
