Elmer may not have been an authority on doubles. He did, however do a damn site more hunting with one, in Africa, Idaho and Alaska than I ever will and probably more than anyone on this forum has done as well. We do seem to have a lot of experts here, though with more knowlede than he had.
: I merely stated what someone with great experience in hunting and some experience with doubles preferred, not that it was the proper way to do it.
