Sir Dennis, I went and got the "XL" size Jet Sled for coming late muzzleloader season, maybe crossbow too ? I also paid the extra $30 bucks for the brown camo version, good for hauling decoys into a duck blind. Heck, at 65" long and 30" wide it is a regular dingy, might use a kayak paddle in a puddle with it.
I will remember the 3-leg hog tie trick, and a loop around head/horns in the pull rope tension train. Paracord 500-pound test. Cheap, thick poly rope 300-pound test. Hay twine if you got it for the hog tie, I have the paracord.
I replaced the dinky pull cord with poly ropes, two 15-foot lengths that loop to each side of sled front. Put a loop around each shoulder, then a gloved hand grips each one like a thumb under your suspenders. So I end up pushing each rope loop with palms forward in front of shoulders, a triceps and pecs workout. That is good for the muscle pocket where a rifle butt caresses the shoulder in recoil. So I stagger a hundred steps then rest until breathing returns to normal. Repeat for a half mile per deer. Hoping for snow for late ML season. .45-cal ML, of course, heh-heh-heh.
