[QUOTE="screech, post: 1113758, member: 5135"] MY normal pack consists of havalon piranta a small bone saw of sorts I use a g7br2 range finder gun optics ammo and a little cheapo derringer for a finish off gun. Had a year where I seemed to have hit everything just a smudge to high in the shoulder that I left big gun in truck walked out to get them to find they weren't as dead as I thought and had to try to finish off with knife after 2deer and 1 elk in 1 year I got a derringer so I had a light better alternative to making a spear with a fillet knife and a long stick to finish off a paralyzed bull elk that still had full movement from its neck forward. I have a kestrel and night force program that I used to use that sits at home. It worked well but the g7br2 has worked well for me the last few years so I quite packing them. I know a lot of people pack kestrels for reading wind but I have found them generally kind of useless where I hunt because the canyons generally have lots of different winds that I have to account for that the kestrel can't read because they are down range. The kestrel may work better if you are on the plains though. In my opinion a good spotting scope, set of binoculars, a g7br2 or a good chrograph would be your next big purchase you'll be needing.
