I know the Howells are big fans of Grazon- Don't know, I've never used it. I've had good luck with Weedmaster (basically 2,4-D) for years.
I recently tried Milestone, and am impressed with it- very pricey ($116 per quart), but you use a very small amount, so it probably balances out to some extent. For spot spraying, its 4.5 cc's per gallon of water- I use a syringe to measure it.
There is no grazing hold-out period- apparently it isn't metabolized by critters, and goes right through them- because it does say not to use the manure on broadleafs from animals who have been on pasture sprayed with Milestone for some period of time.
As long as the weeds are actively growing, I don't see any reason not to spray now.
