Thread: BAG DUMP - whats in your pack

I'm always interested to see what other hunters etc are taking on hunts, days hunts, back country missions etc.

just found this on the tube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wr_QcASb1Z0, always a good way to pass 10mins while having a coffee and zone out from the kids.

any other gear freaks out there find any other interesting videos?

Simple answer..too much stuff

This thread is real good.

to be fair I have all that "stuff" + a bit more

Stopped watching as I will buy something else that I will not use and sell next year for a loss......I'm really good at that

first aid kit
knife and sharpener
meat bag

lunch
jacket
PLB
binos/rangefinder if open country

Seen josh James one, got my gear most sorted now but will look at treking poles as I'm vacating the 30's next year and they might help save my knees walking off the main range.

Gritty bowmen do good vids, amazing how they talk for over an hour on hunting, Aron synder gear is on this one.

I also bought the nzhunter mag which listed their expedition gear


Anyone use Aqua tabs, 2 part bottle ones? ( other than havelock nth residents)

Yea i have used the two bottle ones. I just threw the correct dose of both bottles into the camel pak waited the right time amd drank it. Didnt have any issues

Haven't used the 2 part ones, but the normal tabs shred my stomach after a while. Don't think they are great for your gut flora. Unless the water look grotty I just go au natural.

Bloody auto correct again life-straw

The two part aqua tabs use iodine and something that claims to neutralize it. Iodine is a biologically active substance so you don't want to be drinking too much of it.

why not just take a little eye dropper bottle of bleach, two drops per litre of water and its good to drink.

Kinda the same thing with the tabs, if it kills bacteria in your water, it will kill them in your gut. Gut flora is pretty important
