Which of the following should be checked before each hunt?

Weather conditions
Firearm condition
Both A and B
Neither A nor B

The correct answer is: Both A and B

Before each hunt, it is essential to check both the weather conditions and the condition of your firearm. Checking the weather conditions is crucial as it can impact your safety and the success of your hunt. Severe weather such as heavy rain, snow, or strong winds can create dangerous conditions for hunting. Being aware of the weather forecast will help you dress appropriately, prepare for any challenges that may arise, and ensure a safe hunting experience. Checking the condition of your firearm before each hunt is equally important. Ensuring that your firearm is clean, properly maintained, and in good working order is essential for safe and effective hunting. By inspecting your firearm before heading out, you can identify any potential issues and address them before they become safety hazards during your hunt. Therefore, it is necessary to check both the weather conditions and the firearm condition before each hunt to prioritize safety and enhance the overall hunting experience.
