December 23rd, 2009 — Gear, Hunting
Since prehistoric times, hunting has been a true game of survival between our species and the world of animals. Gradually as civilization has become more civilized, and through advancements in technology, we have fine tuned this art of hunting into a true skill that not everyone can possess.
Those who do possess the skill of hunting can hunt to relax or to find food. Having the right hunting supplies can really make or break your experience in the woods since it will determine whether or not you have the tools and resources that you need to make the kill. Let us start with the basics in terms of must have hunting supplies and go from there. Regardless of whether you are a novice hunter or a professional one, every hunter should absolutely have the following hunting supplies:
1 – You should have a back pack or day pack that will make it easier for you to store and to transport all of your hunting gear along the way.
2 – You need to have a rifle with a bare minimum number of 10 cartridges, or more if you need.
3 – A compass, as this extremely useful tool will help to allow you to get a good sense of where you are going at all times.
4 – Maps of the areas where the hunting is going to take place so that you know where you are in relation to where everything else is.
5 – A sturdy pair of binoculars, standard style without any bells and whistles is definitely going to come in handy.
6 – A cotton bag for storing your game in as you go through the hunting process,
7 – A large knife that you can use to cut and skin the game as you go, so that you only carry what you need and nothing more,
8 – A small knife such as a Swiss Army knife, which is a must have essential item,
9 – Strong nylon string to tie up and hang meat as you go for easier storage and safekeeping,
10 – A saw can be carried if you want to remove any ribs, horns, antlers or legs as you go, but this is not always necessary.
11 – Bring along garbage bags for anything you don’t want so that it can be stored properly in garbage bins rather than left out there in the wild.
A skilled hunter is also going to need to consider some other things. For example, you are going to need to consider permits and licenses when it comes to hunting since different seasons allow for different game hunting and some hunting is not allowed in certain places. If you plan on hunting for anything longer than a day, you should plan the proper camping gear to make sure that you have everything you need at your disposal. Make sure that all of your needs are addressed when planning your hunting trip.
