Is carrying survival gear for deer hunting silly? - hunting packs
I am a city dweller. Therefore, no hunting without GPS, compass, map, food, stock market, and a light cover bivaoc.
This corresponds to a backpack, good size lbs 45th My hunting friends are very upset about it, and found that they are never more than a few hours walk from the car. I am shocked by the intensification of the street without preparation. My fears are unfounded?

Hunting Packs Is Carrying Survival Gear For Deer Hunting Silly?

Air conditioners for the survival of the forest is almost as ridiculous as to a particular car or a fire extinguisher in your home.
Remind friends that you do not this drive Humping pack them so fired!
However, I think that probably can do a little. You can leave the tent and sleeping bag on the list and replace it with a tarp and a rope and 8'x8 when you can go into an area cold, snowy mountains, you are probably a good substitute, comprehensive place for sleeping.
By the way to go if your hunting companions are stupid enough in the woods without a compass or GPS, I suggest you find the hunting partners.
My prediction is that unless a major accident or a sudden and unexpected storm, never sleeping bag or tent. The GPS receiver and a compass to ensure that no loss. I can not predict the same for his friends.
Let me give you an example, and you want to tell their friends. Several years ago, my old friend Bryant GraEC and other colleagues went well in the marshes for fishing in one hand .. At the exit, were eventually overshadowed by passing a wet miserable night around a campfire without food, biscuits and a few dry, half-cooked fish. If it can happen, love of nature with experience in hunting warm weather in the snow, can be disastrous.
Maintain good habits!

If only a few hours out of the car on foot and you are hunting with friends, then you need to have GPS, compass, food and Pee-That 's it. If you are on the hunt for the things that you feel safer with him to
You are wise not to do so .*
Do not bring a little more light to think about it, if you carry something heavy tire, and where the real problems.
not only logically
Well, I think it's a matter of personal taste ... If your team makes you feel then maybe more convinced it's worth it to pack extra work. I personally (and I'm a city dweller) I think the GPS card, and maybe a tent (if it is a lightweight modern) or bag be enough (I'd take the cold, which can store would be difficult ... But rain is a nuisance). If you are using GPS to record the details of your car, take it back where you are. If you are in one or two hours, the battery will survive long enough, and will not need food. The carp would only be if it really starts pouring and wants to wait until the end or something, but in most cases probably better always equal to the car.
I also recommend a minimum of emergency equipment that everyone can fit into a Fannypack: an LED flashlight (which make the small super bright now seems), is a disposable poncho (it small and keep the water more than anything else, support for small first matches and a waterproof membrane (package of emergency measures, I am notWhere E is obtained, but once I folded and smaller than a wallet, but it made me warmer than any sleeping bag), and, of course, a good knife or a pocket knife (if you are already a part of their game, things)
Who cares if it bothers your friends? They scare the deer, every note, or package? Even if you can monitor your equipment is being transported.
Much depends on where you hunt. If you are in an area where snow storms are a possibility which is prepared with the problem areas that you mentioned, but it was a little water add to the list of things to do. If, however, is hunting in Texas, will deal with more things to load. I used to hunt in Texas, and I would take a backpack with some light weight rain gear, water, a sweater, a few snacks. Ammunition, knives, axes, rope. Map, compass, fire and something to do with a bit of toilet paper. There was never a chance to had caught in a blizzard, but for a change of temperature and the possibility of rain being prepared. He then added a two-way radio to summon help if I was hurt. Rarely ever you need one of the things that I had (except for water, snacks and toilet paper).
Imagine what happens in the game and then the equipment you need when the unexpected happens. You should not at the kitchen sink, just enoughsurvive the night.
any person who hunts without a set of basic survival, is a fool. Perhaps the car just a few hours drive under ideal conditions. But injuries, bad weather, accidents are all 2 hours, 10 for example,
On the other hand, think you exaggerate. My complete set of the game size to fit in a backpack, rather than a small personal emergency kit in your pocket. All of this stays with me the whole time. It contains the following: 2 bandages, aspirin, 4, 2 "edge of the blade, stone and steel, pack of 00 steel wool, disposable lighters, butane, 20 'cable and a signal to think about the SS and a small spool fishing line. With this You can always heat and fire protection and signaling.
In my backpack with my hunting gear I also have a sheet of plastic rolled a 5 "blade razor and a knife, fire starter kit, 3 blankets and space, 3 large garbage bags, a package of fish in an empty film canister, a bag with zip full packet of soup powder, tea bags, packets of hot chocolate, coffee, sweets, and an officer of the firsT-aid kit with complementary medicines (including Pepto, aspirin, paracetamol, Alka Seltzer and neo sporin), and personal items. A document survival of pups, and a towel. The complete kit weighs about 3 pounds. with him I can, and have survived the winter snow storms, injuries, missing for 3 days and a dozen other incidents over the past 40 + years of outdoor adventure.
That gives me life and energy drink, the first-aid treatment, heat protection, fire, rain gear, how to help and offer a way to more food. a survival kit is just that needed for emergencies. takes no hotel on the back. and not error-quality products, if necessary. There are hundreds of pounds in emergency kits. I recommend you read a few and the provision of a personal computer. Leave your sleeping bag and other necessities to the United Nations in the country. Note that no weight. Do not forget the extra TP, and I always have 2 dining rooms complete my Fanny Pack belt.
Whether you're in town or in the boonie (whatever). Everyone needs to be prepared for the worst. If your friends are just a few feet out and demand that the hunt is great. To explore the hunters, the surrounding area wants, he / she is hunting for the hunter, the routine change gears, and a little like stalking, tools for survival, is necessary. If you are familiar with the surroundings, or if it is not used to walk to major wooded areas, get lost much easier than you think. It can happen to a beginner or an experienced hunter. Of the fresh tracks and signs that are easy to take your idea in which direction you are moving. And once again made the mistake noticed on the trail at the end of the day and when I, I never could before dark back, I was forced to take a different route to the camp. That's not funny.
Just ignore your taste. Once they realize how much ground can be covered without any worries, they will gain respect from you. And if one of them is lost, it's almost a sure bet you have the last word. Make yourReuse a large number of non-smell in it and lay a few yards from where you actually hunt. I hope you have something to contribute to their professional careers. Large animals are sufficient to carry by hand without adding 45 pounds to her.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with it, it might be a cliche, but better safe then sorry right. I do not think the city is, why you think you have to do it, do not go who is a big risk. Furthermore, most people lose about 100 yards from his car.
PS There are many hunters who us a bad reputation that makes it illegal or just the loot. Be out of fear that is complete respect for and the nature of the network for the animal life of foods for you to give.

A sleeping bag and tent is a kind of push, and maybe you could without food, but everything else is a necessity in the forest.
Habbit deff is not a bad thing. It is not completely necessary, but it's like you never hurt. I mean, if you're really not worried that you have all this, I want to clarify that a Lil Bit. 45 pounds is too much to Haulin game

Like many before us, I think, in preparation is not a bad idea. I think you've done this before. £ 45 for a pack per day?
+ Two large garbage bags 33 gallons is a good sleeping bag and wealth is much easier to bear. A case and cords of natural vegetation can provide good protection. A tube tent is even better.
do not think it's good to know idea.you never done the whole hunt accedente time.and What if you can not go 1 or 2 hours back to the car? somthing always happens when one of them, and they need your help to all that things happen you.plus celebrate exersise your right foot with this thing lol.
You need when hunting with us, we usually have. except at the time of collection we will pick the night into the morning. If you're not there in the morning, we can convince himself
