Try filming if you think those lists are bad.[:-]

We honestly talked about using a game cart this year to cart in the equipment when filming. Big treearm, all camera equipment(alot), hunting bag, two stands, a bow sometimes two bows.....it is ridiculous. lol

When I am going solo...I have an extensive pack that goes with me until I part with the truck...from there it is a simple list.

bowhook.
rangefinder.
sometimes water bottle/snack
idk it just depends really.

RE: ok ..what goes in your back pack on every bow hunt?
 

Here;s my list.. AND MY REASONS>>

Range finder ...it's small and I plan to keep this spot foreever..so I'd liketo memorize all the trees round about..I will only take it once..
bow hook ...when it;s dark..theres no since me holding my bow
New Testament ..helps the time go away..builds faith ,,pleases God.every buck I've shot has veen when I was reading the Word..
extra batteries fo rmy 2 head sets
Last year..both head sets went dead..IN a Florida swamp ..that is petrifying..


Thermacell and repellant as a back up
Mosquitoes are horrible..I need a backup..and it's a screw off top not an aeresal can..


10" Folding saw ..just in case aI missed a limb..or tree.
compass ..got lost last year..never again. I hunt 20 square miles
Flagger tape for downed deer ..to help mark blood trail,,everything looks th esame in our swamps
trail tacks for possible moving of stand
grunt call ..fawn bleat ..must use calls in FLorida

buck folding knife ..field drressing
rubber gloves ..hogs can carry diseases
sandwich....pee bottle and water ,,may get hungry.
extra release ...might drop mine..

Small Taurus 38 revolver ..we live in the meth capital of the world..also hogs can go nuts..

You must remember we all hunt different terrains. I hunt deep in thick woods and I sit all day, so who knows what I will need. It's better to be prepared than wishing you had something.

Anyways, my pack consists of:

Rangefinder
Binos
Pull Rope
Flashlight
Knife
Batteries
Gloves
Hand Warmers
Grunt Call
Bleat Can
Pee Bottle
Water
Trail Mix
Granola Bars
2 Way Radio
Small medical kit
Thermacell
Orange Reflective tape for tracking
Poncho
Book

Trust me, when you truly sit all day you can come up with a whole list of things you would like to have.
