[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1584467, member: 18945"] For a 10' rub, it's always taken me 3 1/2 to 5 gallons for the initial 'charging' of the rub. Once it has been filled the 1st time, a 2 gal garden sprayer will usually get it back to the dripping stage. Put as many of the 'face flyps' on it as you can..torn up tee shirts will work in a pinch. When I first put the rubs out, the cattle always tended to kinda hurry thru it next to the posts where the rub was highest from the ground...mostly avoiding the lower hanging flyps. That soon changed and they'd go under at the low center of it. I've watched my old beefmaster bull and the char/simm lost of times walk under it, and just move back and forth under the rub...they figure out pretty fast that going under it is helping them.
