[QUOTE="gjk5, post: 658111, member: 47604"] I love W CO, hunting and fishing is great, weather is mild, access to lots of public land is abundant (there are about 25K contiguous ac of BLM that starts about 250 yds from my front door). The one major thing you are missing (and the FIRST thing you should buy) is a very good pair of boots, IMO the most important piece of hunting gear next to a gun! If you have to go Cabela's/BassPro route then Danner's are always a pretty safe bet. Plan on spending at least $200 for decent boots, up to $400+ for GREAT boots. Next buy a comfortable GOOD pack (NOT a Walmart pack) to carry stuff and put as little in it as possible :D. Clothes are almost irrelevant as long as they are comfortable and definitely have some decent rain gear. ETA: I almost always carry a M65 .357. [/QUOTE]
