Dale has a dog left in Star. Those numbers are about average I would say.

Expect to lose about 10% in the upland.
At least that's been the way in years past.

Why don't they break it into two flights and get 'er done today fo sho???? Heck, it's already 10:30 central and they're just starting??? (yes, I know they're on diff. time zone)

If you figure 6 or 7 minutes a dog, that's 7.5 hours minimum...not counting planting and no-birds, etc. They could cut that time considerably with side by sides.

I'm not being critical, it just seems inefficient.

They do sometimes. So i guess they got 2 going on in conjunction.
When the do, they usually get one going and start the next one. It just depends when you arrive to where you go.
They don't seperate. It's a first come served type of deal.
