Tracking is pretty much all we do, obviously when we have snow, I find so many “sitting spots” off the beaten path when I’m tracking that I decided to research lightweight stand options this year after season during the winter, for when we don’t have snow early season or some years all season, and thats what got me onto saddlehunting this year. Growing up I read every book and watched every video I could of them guys (benoits) and went to one seminar, great guys. Tracking is a trial and error sport, more error than anything at first until your dialed in, being successful is doing a lot of little things right and having it all come together when it needs too. Hands down my favorite and most successful method for me to deer hunt. 75% of the time I’m tracking it’s with my hunting buddy, we usually work together.I love Kittery Trading Post. It was my favorite part of a summer trip to Maine as a kid (even over the beach!l).
I have 7600 carbine in 30-06 that I picked up used from Gunbroker for a little over four benny's a few years back. It has an elevated scope over iron sights. I'm not much of a tracker, though I yearn to be and have read Larry's book and attended his son's workshops.
I'm not a rifle aficionado but I like this gun. It's size works great in a saddle application also.
