Mauser 96, I've been on seven outfitted elk/deer hunts in Colo., Idaho, Wyom., and Mont. I've seen only two fat dudes in camp. One (Colo.) tried to hunt but wasn't able to get around well and the other (Wyom.) kinda sat around camp and enjoyed the view. I think he was just there with his buddies for the camp experience.

Almost all the hunters in those seven camps were in fairly good shape, some better than others, but none was what could be described as a "fat slob."

Just my experience.
