Proper field carries: Two-handed carry
The terrain and the number of hunters that are with you will determine how you carry your firearm in the field.
The two-handed carry provides the best control of the firearm. One hand holds the firearm’s grip and the other is on the forearm of the firearm. This is sometimes referred to as the ready carry. It gives the hunter the best control of the muzzle, and the firearm can be shouldered quickly.
