[QUOTE="bse, post: 1469568, member: 13989"] when I started, Genex was just coming with the pocket thaw, I never did it, if it worked I think it would be the only thing used, I don't think it did because I never hear of it. So for me its by the book, I don't have a stop watch to make sure its been in the thaw long enough, but ive done enough till I think I know. Have been fortunate enough to work with a guy that was on the team that developed the 95 degree thaw, he says letting it crystalize is the very worst thing that can happen to that straw, not saying thawing in a cow doesn't work apparently it does for some, im not gonna do it. Ron im not buying the horn thing doesent matter, I know for me early on, going through the cervix wasn't that tough, placement was id go in the horns everytime, I either did exceptional or horrible, so right or wrong horn. If it didn't matter about placement after the cervix, that should be easy to teach when the gun slides deposit wherever. So for me im not buying that.. [/QUOTE]
