RE: Must Have Pack List
What I pack is dictated by where I'm going to be hunting. Of course it is always going to have tags, license, ID, spare ammo. Then whether it's on the farm or big state land and the expected weather will have different requirements. Also everyone has different needs. I say needs because what you need might not be what I need. I know some guys who can't hit the woods w/o 2 or 3 boxes of slugs - me I can do with just 1. Some guys bring a bottle or 2 of water - I need (and want) 4 or 5 bottles of water as I'm big on being hydrated.
One thing is for sure - ain't no 2 lists gonna be the same.
Another consideration is how deep ya going and how ya gettin there? Gonna do an all day stalk? Sit on a few different stands?
If I'm going stalking you better believe I'm going light. If I'm going to sit in a stand or blind all day and am getting dropped off by an ATV, I'm bringing the bbq grill,laptop, space heater and sleeping bag(humor).
