Now for a pack that's another animal. There are a bunch of things that you can throw in it that can be used for every hunt. Examples: first aid kit, flashlight, fire starter, knofe, sharpener and a host of other items. Things like binos, spotting scope etc can be added depending on the hunt.
Just read your post. These are the words of an experienced hunter. I absolutely agree with your list. I always take first-aid kit, my flashlight from
olight store, knife, and sharpener. I have a bino and I take it with me (it would be weird to buy and not use it), but it's true that Iit s the most important thing.
