definately carrying ever since it became legal. i carry my every day glock, my main concerns arent game animals. i have met far too many not so neighborly flash lights in the pitch black, and despite my towering 5'6 frame i like the back up. a few years back turkey hunting i got snuck up on by two very large mutts that showed a lot of teeth and snarls, being a dog lover i was not anticipating the next move. as it turns out i pulled down my face mask and they both started wagging their tales the one even let me rub its belly, they had collars on so im glad it went like it did, despite my kindness one of them ripped up my hen decoy!

I carry a Ruger Redhawk in 44 Mag when Deer and Bear hunting. I have worked out a darn good load with hard cast bullets for it and they hit like thor's hammer. Like one of the posts before, If you carry a rifle leave the handgun at home if you are serious about hunting with one! In my past experiences and with several other hunters I've talked with you will go with the long gun every time. If its just a walk in the woods I have a real nice Dan Wesson model 15 that I can change from a 2 1/2" Stubby to an 8" 357 Mag in about 2 minutes.
