I was intrigued too, and Anker Berg-Sonne described it to me in an email. The
way it works is that you have a lineup of, say, four winches with chutes but no
retrievers. Everybody launches. After the chutes land, there's somebody out
there who runs around, grabs the chutes, and hooks them to the cart, then a
winch winds the cart back to the launch line, and there’s a retriever operated
by the chute-shagger to pull the cart out to him.

Friends,
I believe I saw a message that described how one club used a wood dolly on
wheels to retrieve multiple winch lines during a contest. The dolly was
operated by a winch and retriever arrangement, as I recall.
Anyone know about this? I thought I saw a photo, but I did not keep it.
If you know about this, or if you set it up, could you let me know please?
We may want to try it at an upcoming contest.
Best Regards,
Ed Anderson
