Yup. Why I don't use one dogging.


I would have thought that a sling would have been quite useful while running after dogs!

Walking in/out : Scope on 6X, safety on, round in chamber (I lost a deer once because I didn't have one chambered walking out)
In vehicle : Chamber emptied, magazine removed
On ground : Sling strap removed
In tree : Sling strap attached




I don't want to pass quietly into the night. I want to slide in sideways kickin and screamin

I can't think of a single time a sling ever cost me a shot, but I carry upside down over left shoulder. Very fast to aim from there.

Barrel up over yer shooting shoulder is sloooooow.


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I don't understand taking the sling off the gun.

I do take the quiver off my bow. But, I never shoot with the quiver on my bow.

Scope alwyas stays on lowest power, but my slings stay on my guns, all the time. When i'm walking in or out, i don't use the sling, unless it is dark. Its laying in the crook of my left arm.

I never take my sling off my weapons.


just looked them up, not really sure what advantage they offer? I remove them, because a sling is just one more thing to get in the way, or bump against something.


Look at one on a gun and you'll see the advantage. Notice how it is adjusted tight to the rifle and not hanging loose.

I'm sorry I couldn't see the strap because that rack was in the way...

Sling stays on rifle. Quiver comes off bow when in the stand. Sling comes off shotgun when I setup on a turkey.
