Favorite method has to be OWB. Current cooler weather makes that doable. Otherwise, a Summer Special "knock-off" in appendix carry.

Ruger P345 in a High Noon Holsters shoulder holster most of the time since I drive a lot.

Otherwise in a Desantis Defender belt holster.

I'm too small a person for IWB with my 45. Sticks me in the ribs.

90% of the time it's OWB. If that's not possible the it's either a Kramer shirt holster or an ankle holster depending on the circumstance.

I tend to use what works best for the situation at hand.

1) OWB
2) IWB
3) Shoulder rig
4) Fanny pack
5) SOB

And YES I have practiced drawing from all. ( I live on a 1006 acre ranch)

Primarily IWB
OWB I have been using Blackhawk serpa BLACKHAWK ! *BlackHawk CQC SERPA Holster - Active Retention - Matte Finish
I like the added retention since it is easier to access. Required added practice drawing from holster to gain speed.
