Hmm. I cogitated on this a bit...

I debated if I would go the Africa route because as a teen my school library had the 1952 copy of Hunter. The life of John Alexander Hunter who was a game protector and PH in Kenya. I was mesmerized by his exploits.

Or India as in the time of Jim Corbett and the leopard of Rudaprayag. I believe that cat killed something like 400 plus people.

But as I think further, I would like to go back to 1965 or so at the time of Al Goerg and his exploits in Alaska.

I'd go with a Smith and Wesson M29 44 magnum and a Smith and Wesson K22 Masterpiece. Hunt big game with the scoped 44 and small game with the 22. Knife would probably be something like a Kabar Marine corps knife . While I am at it, I'd run with his kit. Light canvas tarp, mummy bag and a few bare items.
