We just get them down on the ground on their side and one guy lays across the head and upper body while holding the top leg towards the head. The second guy takes a single edge razor blade and cuts the hog directly over each testicle. Reach in and pull out with all attachments. We did not cut the cords but pulled it all out. We then put iodine on the wound and let them go. They went out across the hog lot dragging the surgical area for a while but they get over it. In all the time we have done this we have never lost a hog. Almost lost a holder once, but that is another story. Boy was that sow mad!!!
