3rd Generation Cattle Head Scoop
The 3rd Generation Q-Catch® Cattle Head Scoop takes cattle control to a new level, with enhanced control and durability for optimal performance. Featuring an upgraded design with thicker and heavier components, the 3rd Gen Head Scoop ensures you can perform treatments on your cattle safely and easily, no matter their size or temperament. The Head Scoop is made up of two pieces - a bottom bar with scoop for cattle to rest their chin and top bar to secure the head and prevent thrashing. The two pieces move in a synchronized, scissor-style motion to clamp around the animal's head securely and provide the handler with up-close access to the animal's head without placing unnecessary stress on the animal.

Patented Single Lever Operation
The Q-Catch Head Scoop is operated with a single, user-friendly handle that allows you to secure the cows head in place with a smooth motion. The dual friction lock automatically engages without the need for a secondary lock or latch, providing secure cattle head control in any position.

Calms Cattle Down Immediately
The moment the Head Scoop is secured around their neck, even the most riled up cattle will calm down to be worked safely. The scoop provides cattle with a place to rest their head comfortably while procedures are competed, and the top bar ensures they cannot throw their head around and injure the handlers who are working them.

Improved Heavy-Duty Frame
The latest model of Q-Catch Cattle Head Scoop features an improved and bulked up frame that makes it tougher and more durable than ever, and provides a more secure hold with the top bar located closer to the head gate than previous models. The heavy-duty frame ensures you can control even the largest bulls and prevent thrashing, to keep handlers and livestock safe.

![Sternum bar 107 series]()
Best When Combined with a Sternum Bar
The Head Sweep does not support the bottom of the animal's head, which may increase the possibility that a cow will go down in the crush under stress. Adding a sternum bar is a great option to keep your cattle upright in the crush and minimize processing delays caused by downed cattle.
Product Specifications
- Hydraulically powered head restraint
- Gently sweeps the cow's head to one side to control movement
- Controls mounted on the pivoting control arm
