    What's the builder's line for Gadgetman?

    I use a 7 pocket bum bag but have removed 2 pockets to give more room for the knife on the belt, and on days when I need wet weather gear of extra layer that may come off a 25 ltr pack as well.

    I take
    Rangefinder (use it as binos as well as this one has good optics and is comfortable to use)
    camera (small waterproof one)
    ammo, Knife, small diamond steel,bi-pod (If longer shots are possible)
    Lens cleaning gear and an oily rag and rope pull through and tape
    water, snacks (scrogin or the likes)
    GPS, Compass and if I dont know the area map
    A little first aid gear, small gauze bandage and pain killers minimum and ass paper
    Survival blanket that has a small light Gerber pocket knife in with it as well flint, rag and rubber

    If its a bush bash mission I don't take all of that.



    If I have the pack it will have a water bladder, meat sack, rain coat and on occasion extra food and mini cooker for winter (mid day hot drink or noodles)



    Some of the newer bum bags with the zip down packs would be handy for winter when you strip layers of clothes.... uznip the pack part and chuck the jacket etc in

    Anything you want. Add to the fishing line for length. A ridgeline and sheet bends on the blanket for shelter. ... really light but pretty strong, would be pushing to weigh 5g and better for cutting and tying stuff than the heavier para/climbing cord that you'd probably prefer kept as a single length. Would even be a good option for tying front/back legs of an animal together for a carry.

    Ass paper: now there's a deep and meaningful topic on its own.

    Ever noticed how no matter how carefully you fold it (when packing it into your gear) it is next to useless when you go to use it?

    I've got into the habit of carrying those paper tissue 'handy packs' - sealed and folded in plastic, good and strong when there's a wet westerly blowing around your jacksee, and for the folders (ie not the scrunchers) it does permit refolding for the skilled.

    just to refocus - good bum paper is important to carry.

    If no paper, do not linger.
    Solo hunter, use your finger!
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Do any men scrunch? I wouldn't have thought so.

    you're right - they don't need sophisticated gender tests at the Olympics - should just ask 'em if they're a folder or a scruncher
