It is easy to get overwhelmed with gear choices. In this new "Pack Essentials" series, Steve & Mark discuss the essential gear for backcountry, backpack-style hunting, and how to select the right gear for your needs and budget.
In this third episode of the four-part series, we discuss the hunt-specific gear that should be in your pack. We cover everything from the knives and game bags we use, to how we carry our binos, and what weapon-maintenance items we bring into the backcountry.
