Hunting position - Trail carry

If a hunting party is traveling in single file, only the lead person should use the trail carry. This one-handed carry provides the least control in the event of a fall or other problems. 

Don’t use when debris can get in barrel.

Never use this carry if someone is walking ahead of you.
