Default Removing bolt from cam gear

What's the easiest way to do this? I normally do it by taking the whole cam with the cam gear attached to it and remove the bolt by holding the pulley in the vice.

I loosen the bolt before removing the timing belt.

Some cams have a spot where you can use a open ended wrench to hold the cam in position while you break the bolt loose. You can also put a screw driver in a opening of the cam gear so it binds with the cylinder head and break the bolt loose.

Good idea! I'm trying to not use the vice technique as it can sometimes damage the teeth on the cam gear.
