Out here, most bull calves are turned into steers at branding which occurs when the oldest calves are around 2-3 months old. I helped a friend during a castration of a 1-1/2 year old bull and he had a vet do the deed. You have to have a large castrater for the bigger animals and it has a device on it that clamps and crushes the artery so that it clots faster. You have to hold it clamped on each side for about a minute. In the bigger bulls, the artery is relativelylarge and they can bleed out if you don't get the artery clotted.
