Could be but I'm thinking things would get pretty western trying to get a cow hung up by her back legs. Especially working by myself.

I have done a tail block with lidocaine to push back in a prolapse.

All done with cow in a chute which is safer for both me and her.

I have had legs back and even a head back presentation but usually you can work between the cow's pushing.
If she won't quit straining, then I have used a tail block for that too
I agree that is full on desperation western. He calved a couple hundred angus heifers a year bred to charlais bulls a year with only his wife for help. He finally quit the ranch and they changed their breeding program. He would hand winch them up to the side of a trailer if he couldn't get his tractor their.
