Aluminum Tube RedCote™ Crook
Use this neck crook for grabbing animals as they are passing by or singling one out of a group.
Red outer finish means it's less likely to be "misplaced" in grass, straw, closets, etc. Also prevents uncoated aluminum from leaving black oxidate on your hands and clothes.

The product is fine. But the cost of shipping is excessive and creates a financial barrier to purchase and return items.

I was recovering from a concussion when I bought this and have zero memory of doing so. That being said I’m glad I did. It makes a great hiking stick. If I run into any sheep, I’ll be sure to grab one!

Lightweight and durable shepherd’s crook.

In the first ten minutes I have bent it. Better than nothing.

I like the length of this crook and the weight.
We use it for herding our cows and it is useful that it is a little heavier.
I also use it to pull down overhanging branches I can’t reach for cutting, and to check the brush for fallen branches or stones before weed whacking.
