plenty of guys that do it different
know more than a few Alaskans that like a sidearm on their hip when hunting.
but not for me in high country, no thankee, not gonna take a kiddie toothbrush that I sawed the handle down, the lightest stove I could find.....
and then add two lbs. of iron on my hip.
different strokes for different folks
but I've seen some strange things in the mountains
one of the most memorable was a guy donating his wool pants to the rocks and finishing his hunt in his polypro longhandles
hard to understand why folks are so goofy about going light weight to sheep hunt
until you've carried a few sheep back with you.
then sawing the handle off a kiddie toothbrush and buying a new jacket for another $200 cause it's 2 oz. lighter than the one you had makes nine kinds of sense.
