Coach Report post Posted November 30, 2009 Binos and tripod first, range finder second, my headlamp or at least a working flashlight third, my Browning FDT - best knife I've ever owned - nothing fancy but does everything a guy needs when taking care of game - yeah baby wipes, but let's face it, we've all used whatever was handy and lived to tell about it. Ever cut your chonies off and walk out commando? I bet you have! Seriously, my mantra when checking my gear is "tag, gun, bullets - ok I can hunt (or tag, bow, release)". Everything else is gravy. That said, I keep my fanny pack stocked with an emergency blanket (one of those foil thingies), magnesuim fire starter, two bic lighters, a GOOD flashlight and a backup flashlight and a couple Cliff bars.

COUESAZ Report post Posted November 30, 2009 My Bark River knives. I know because i went through this in november when i had to gut my dear with my Unsharpend pocket knife. My knives are always sharp. But this time my popcket knife had been used at work very hard for a few days before the hunt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coach Report post Posted November 30, 2009 CouesAZ, I gotta get one of those Bark River knives. I've been salivating over the Bravo I or Bravo II in ironwood burl with turquoise. Not a better looking knife around. Here's the one I'm after - PM me with cost etc. I've got to sell some stuff first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
