*Does anyone here hunt for a week at a time ? *If so what equipment do you take ? *How much does it all weigh ? just a little question to pass the time ........
ill start , *yes i usualy hunt between 3 days and a week at a time. *i take my army harness packed with , camp shower , soap , toothbrush , t-paste , first aid kit , extra arrows and bh's , 2 spare bowstrings ,sharpening stone ,rope, tent , hat , spare socks , aeroguard ,pig sticking knife , and general skinning knife and my 4 leaf clover lol My swag roll . all together it weighs 18Kgs
Depends what I'm chasing and where. Camp shower, soap and toothpaste? The key to packing light is to make sure that everything serves more than one purpose... you can brush your teeth with soap and a pot works as a camp shower just fine. My first aid kit is a bandana. What's key is to separate niceties from necessities.
yeah we all arrange things differently though , the harness i carry with takes the feeling of most of the weight away , plus one week of hunting i see personal hygine as a necessity , i guess i just like to equip myself for the worst possible situations , its australia , it can rain , storm , be sunny, or up to 45 degrees , or below 16 , the flies are nasty aswel as the mosquitos and sand flies , but hunting for a week almost helps you forget about those things :P
Yeah, hunting for a week at a time here in AK is pretty common. Tent, Sleeping bag, Thermarest, Jetboil stove, Mountain house, game bags, packframe, daybag, gun or bow, bullets, knives, and the list can go on forever. haha
haha indeed , always expect the worst , damn i even have stitching kits and adrenaline in my first aid kit , i can basicaly preform surgery on limbs or puncture wounds at ease , but i had rn training for that . You never know what can happen .
Ohh Yeh! The Jet-Boil and Mountain House.....watch out for the the Jamaican Chicken....it tastes good but does horrible things to my large intestine.
