Hardy - This is really interesting. Thanks for taking the time to explain. I have minis - one a seasoned driver and the other a baby that is very lazy. They have only been out together a few times but the experienced mini seems to do all the work. I've been working the baby on his own but I'll keep this in mind when I put them together again. Also, I'd like to know about the suspended poles. Would this be more suitable for my little guys? How is it "suspended"? Do I have to buy a new cart/pole or can an existing pole be welded somehow? Thanks for everyone's input. I just love reading about your experiences and advice since I am very new to driving. - carol _________________________________________________________ To Unsubscribe, change to Digest or Vacation mode go to: http://www.drivingpairs.com/dpmem.shtml `````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
