Equipment list
Right, hopefully by now you have decided to come and hunt with us! Here is a list to help your pack.
STORAGE
-
Daypack - Choose a quality daypack made of quiet camo material. It should be large enough to carry a jacket, lunch, water, socks, etc.
HUNTING GEAR
-
Binoculars - Arguably your most important piece of gear, they should be shockproof, and made of high-quality glass. Spend as much as you can. (8x to 10 x recommended)
-
Binocular Harness - Your binoculars are worthless if you can't get to them quickly, so most hunters use some type of chest harness system to keep them handy.

Headlamp - LED headlamps are the way to go.
