    Day Hunt Gear?

    Hey guys/girls, I've just been in my second hunt, with @stretch thanks again... and like the idea of shooting at food, aswell as paper.
    I'm looking for the appropriate gear for day trips only at this stage.

    A couple of years ago I had a significant stroke (aged 33), and its left me in not as new condition, (lack of feeling on my right side, constant pins and needles/numbness)
    I also fatigue/tire easily so will be sticking to the track more often than not, and the less weight i have to carry the better
    my game of choice at the stage will be goats (but would love to have a go for deer one day), and in the Auckland area and will be mostly hunting in the warmer/drier months.

    at this stage I'm looking for the following items (and hopefully doesn't break the bank)

    1) a day pack, I'm thinking around the 25l mark with a hydration pack

    2) what knife/knives would you suggest,

    3) and a good pair of boots, light weight and ankle support is very important for me.

    I'm also looking at investing in a PLB but am reading other threads on this....
    any other essentials is should looking at?
