[QUOTE="Amo, post: 1217938, member: 14857"] Don't feel bad. All my buddies use them. Ive tried them too. Eye patch glue gets messy in a hurry. I have tried all the tips & tricks everybody says. They can get them to stay on for months. Im lucky if I get 2 days! Follow the directions for how to place them on, plus where I AI has some low hanging tree branches. Between the tail rubbing off so not knowing if its starting to come in or just the tail, or the dang things just not being on there. I don't know if it got rode so hard that its not on, or if she went under a tree & ripped it off. The Kmars are always on there. Eye patch glue garuntes that is won't "rubb" off with the tree. Plus if your on foot, I think you can sort easier because the Kmars stick up higher. Helped buddies that use Estrotects. They aren't much harder to see, easier to apply, & they stay on for them. I watch my cows pretty well during that time, but I got frustrated with the lottery ticket deal. If they go out of business, proably just give up AI or at least heat detection. [/QUOTE]
