I'm loaded by the time I start walking away from the truck.  Fences are no problem.  If I'm hunting with somebody, we hand each other the guns.  If I'm by myself, I just lay it on the ground pointed away from me.
Me too.

I put three shells in the sleeve...but I do not chamber a round until I'm setting up on bird.  If my set up fails I remove the chambered round to change locations.  My Supernova has a VERY convenient button on the forend that allows me to un-chamber a round without re-chambering another round....safety first for me.  I WILL NOT hunt with another hunter that doesn't do the same.  I've seen TO MANY guys that don't practice good gun handling.

My daddy always told me carrying an unloaded gun was like carrying a stick

By myself: in woods lock and load at the jeep.
With buddies: load gun (overunder) but walk with gun broken over my shoulder from truck to setup.
Hunt with a guide: follow his instructions (load at setup).

I really dont want to have my 835 go: SNICK,SNICK, KACHUNK, SNICK-CLICK at the setup. My safety is always on and barrel is straight up until I sit.

YEP.. SOON AS I START WALKING TO SPOT.. FENCES ARE NO PROBLEM .. JUST MAKE SURE SAFETY IS ON AND ALWAYS POINT THE GUN AWAY FROM YOU..
GOOD LUCK HUNTING
