Hi guys
This came up in another thread but I thought it was worthy of its own thread.
I am pretty new to guiding guests, and I love it.
In another thread it was mentioned that 2 people had had close calls with guests nearly shooting them both times due to a ND.
When I am guiding I lead the party and I carry the gun. This way there is no way the person behind me can shoot me by accident. They get the rifle to take the shot, once the shot has been taken I take the rifle back off them.
Another member of this forum said they have never had anyone carry their gun on a paid hunt.
So simply my question to you guys is how to do you guide.
Do you let the client take the lead?
Do you let them carry the gun?
Do you take the lead and carry the gun?
Interested to hear your responses.
