Sling.
I used the sling a few times to drag deer, mostly when it's raining. Used one time to hold a branch out of the way for a better shooting lane.The moment you mention the word "hunters" the sling to me is a must. In a hunt the sling isn't just for carrying the rifle around, it serves a lot of useful purposes.
At least I don’t use faux leopard skin slings like LoonWulf.
I’m with you though I can see how the terrain I hunt influences my preferences.Used to be that I HAD to have a sling on everything. Hunting with long barreled muzzleloaders has taught me two things. Slings on hunting rifles aren't 'that' important and short barrels are overrated.
