jscunn, I will go ahead and glue the Kamar pads in place after the second shot. Maybe I can head off a dud before it happens. I was going to try to place the 80th hour where it would come up on a Saturday afternoon. That way if it were to swing several hours one way or another, we still could get it done. I will tell the gentleman what I am doing.
I ran a search on all the posts on this forum and did not see this method listed. He says he has always done it this way. He always has a pasture full of calves, and he doesn't run a bull.
How many days do you hold your bull out of the pasture with the cows after then have been AI'ed. I do want the bull to catch the next time they come in if we missed it. Next time I do this, I will be relying on myself and I can choose the method. I try to go by two rules.
1. If I don't have it, I don't need it.
2. If I can't do it, then it doesn't need to be done.
I don't mind helping someone else, and I don't mind loaning some things out to certain people. If I do, then I go along with what ever they want.
Some people can tear up everything they touch. These rules keep friends from running when I pull up in their driveway. I' ve heard rules are made to be broken. Don't seem right when it's your own.
