I know and talk with a lot of guides and a lot of experienced ones claim they really don't care what a client brings because if they can't shoot the guide will have to kill it anyway.
Which is why, when asked what rifle a client should bring, I always ask what they have and what is their favorite and then recommend they buy a box of premium bullets and bring it.
Sounds sensible enough, Phil.
But that makes me wonder about your choice of a 30-06 for your backup rifle... is that what you carry when you know your hunter can shoot well and you figure you won't need it? From your articles, I had assumed you always carried Old Ugly or one of your other big-bore rifles!
