whats in your pack?

Recommended Posts

Aside from the obvious and what has been mentioned already, I carry a full set of rain gear and a down jacket along with a head sock. Wind puffer, bone saw and rubber gloves. In addition, a E.L.K. 'deer talk/deer stopper'. It stops semi spooked deer including bucks dead in thier tracks. Either for one last size em up look or for a clean shot or both. With my metabolism, LOTS of food and water.

On my last hunt the zip ties that hold my binoculars to the harness broke and my butler creek flip open scope cap broke off. Things breaking can be a downer on the trip. When i got home I put together a little repair kit that fits inside an altoids tin. I cut a rectangle of cardboard, wrapped it with strong thread, threaded a needle and then stuck it all the way into the cardboard. Then I added a bunch of zip ties, super glue and some duct tape wrapped around half a bic pen case. Since I had some extra space and didn't want things rattling around I put some emergency butt wipe and a small bag of pain killers. I wrapped a strong hair tie around the tin so it does not come open in my pack. It is small enough I can stuff it in the back and forget about it, but it could potentially salvage a trip.
