Have worked cattle all my life. No matter how safe you are, you still stand a chance of getting hurt. That just goes with the game.
I would suggest putting a type of anti backing up device in the chute run to keep the animal from backing up. Also on those metal gates, put a 2X6 or 2x8 along the top of the gate. It will save the gates and also will give the cow the illusion of how high the gate is. Most people will use an all most solid gate for the same reason. Ask me how I know...... If you park a tractor or such at the gate,the cows will be less abt to try to jump the gate and the tractor. Once we had some steers to load and they were jumping all the orange gates. Finally chained a homemade gate to the front of the small dozer and pushed them down the alley to the truck. Now I know some Nebraska guys ain"t going to believe that, but that was a hard days work, loading those steers. We never went back to that guys correl any more. HTH Good Luck and be careful mb
