I have always found MS's posing/posturing with dead animals and some of the gung ho stuff in the few videos I have watched of him hunting were a bit much for me and like some above have expressed, I too have thought that I would find him hard to take in the field or around the camp fire. Funnily enough I actually enjoyed this video, the battle and battlefield stuff is not a big deal just figures of speech no different to many who use terms of thumping or decking an animal and similar off the cuff sort of descriptive language.

I couldn't fault anything he said in terms of preparing for hunting, safe carry, and waiting until a charging animal was close enough that the odds of missing were greatly reduced. Hell didn't Taylor, Hunter and most of those great professionals of that era practice and promote this.

I thought the ammo carrier and belt set up and the checking he does before venturing out extremely good, I cringe when I watch so many videos on this and other forums of hunters fidgeting and fumbling at their ammo belt trying to get ammo out for a reload and invariably looking down at what they are doing, all the time often trying to run to keep up with the PH.
The number of times I've been out with other hunters who leave their safety on when trying to take a shot or even some who leave the safety on when on the clay target field is incredible.

MS certainly seems to have good rules and good systems in place to limit the occurrence of stupidity.

Would I hunt with him? Would probably consider it now but he would have to carry an empty gun. I want to deck my own animals on the battleground!!!!
