I used the newer "rub off" (scratch off) heat detection patch this year, rather then the K-Mar tht I have used in the pass. The sales pitch was that the idea of the rub off was fewer false readings due to tree limbs and ect.
Well while they where much cleaner to put on, everyone turned red in two to three days (not even close to being due to coming into heat). So I sat and watched, they are hitting the patches with there tails swatting flies. Everyone is bright red because of tail action. I guess unless I get a good suggestion it's back to K-mars and pastures without trees.
Just a rant,
Alan
