Prepping for my first hunt

[Magnus]

I have my A.L.I.C.E pack ready with warm clothes, snacks, a blanket, note pad, pen, first aid and batteries. I have a water canteen, #4 buck, 1911 and spare mags. I bought a paraknife with fire starter today and some chord to make a sling for my shotgun. Shotguns a 12Ga. Maverick 88 with flash light at the end. Should I bring anything else?

What are you hunting?

What are you hunting?

I am also wondering what exactly he is hunting. None of that gear seems to really match a typical hunt of game.

Viet Cong tunnel hunt? Your going to have to ditch the pack.

 

[GOYABEAN]

Wabbit's

You guys haven't heard? They cloned hitlery and released them in the woods.

Seriously: coyotes. I'm bringing the extra gear in case I need it. I do plan to travel light, but I figured I would be out a while.

 

[Criticalt]

I bring a gun and a knife.

I always carry TP, a spade, and a copy of this "must have" book:

"How To Shit In The Woods" by Kathleen Meyer

Crap I forgot the baby wipes. Thanks for the reminder.

Guns, check. Knife, check.

Just returned from 12 hours in my stand. I saw the best buck I've seen in awhile but he stayed too far out. Going back tomorrow!!!

I was thinking deer hunting, coyote hunting may need more gear. Bring what you are comfortable with. Just remember, everything has a smell and coyotes have great noses.

Cuff'em Dano!!

 

[Airborneguy]

No luck

Couldn't stay all day today, I'm actually home already. The place I hunt is only an hour and a half drive so it's not bad even for morning only hunts.

Same here. Hunt was cut short thanks to the weather. I didn't see any yotes but I slipped in plenty of scat.

 

[Blimey]

Okay coyotes makes sense!

 

[NirvanaFan]

Make sure you bring your license.

 

[Criticalt]

Damn sly dogs.
I only see them when im unprepared.

Sounds like a shitty day??

 

[swilliams]

Depending on weather, some of those hand-warmer packs.

 

[Bushmaster]

Holy crap Magnus I want you on my side - Tunnel Rat LOL. I do like the #4 Buck. And that 1911 for tunnel ratting though!

lmao..if I had to drive that far to hunt I probably wouldn't hunt. Where I hunt is a 5 minute walk when I'm sneaking in

Today was my first time shooting the #4 and I like it. Very tight shot from a cylinder bore.

Sounds fun.

25 rnds plus the 1911 .. are you blind .. LOL just pickn ... whats the firestarter ? a magnesium bar and striker ? .. if so you know how to use it ??
you would be surprised .. i had to show like 5 guys how to use one .. maybe i should toss a vid into the prepping forum ..

I used to drive 3 hours for day trips. Next year I'm getting my NJ tags again. Tons of hunting less than 45 min from me.

They are cool but I'd rather have actual matches or something. Amazon sells storm proof ones that literally keep burning under water (I confirmed it). They will never go out from wind or water for the 10 seconds or so they are burning.

No#4 is good stuff for Yotes. You should see it come out of a quality Coyote Choke or even a Turkey choke. In the 90's 4buck was not legal, No# 2 birdshot was not legal. But needed the 2's to drop grays & reds at distance in night so you could find them. We would use no2 birdshot and scratch wipe off the number. Use to scare crap out of us when pulled over at night.LOL

So @Magnus, are you going to have a "Save Magnus from the Woods" schematic for us later?
