        Thought you all might enjoy this video of us that aired on MD public TV last week on MD out doors channel. No archery here but you will see me and the lovely wife and of course the real stars–the dogs–it runs for 9′.

                  Very cool, Mike. And I’ve never seen a sled like that!

                    I enjoyed watching! I’ d never seen a sled with wheels before either. Has anyone ever kissed a tree going around a corner wide?

                      Paleo

                      Hitting one on the outside of the trail is OK–Well sometimes–it’s those on the inside that really hurt. Particularly when we are running sleds they are made of wood (traditional, we don’t use the carbon aluminum modern sleds). We actually don’t worry about the rig, important thing is keep the dogs from hitting a tree or bush. In 10 years we haven’t injured a dog or guest on the trail. That’s a record we are proud of.

                      Why don’t you come check it out–special rates for family and friends and members of Trad.Bow–free. Come join us for a training run. This year we are only running tours 2 weekends a month vise 5 days a week–I’m getting old and tired. If anyone is interested check our website and give us at least 2 weeks notice.

                          No summer runs–we start training in the fall temps at 50 although we have done some short runs at 60 but need low humidity and cloud cover. They run best at 0 to -10:D
