Next year I will be going on a drop camp hunt in Colorado - 2nd archery season. I am nearing completion of acquiring all the gear I believe I need for the hunt. If you could, please evaluate my gear list and let me know of any holes that you see or things that I should change. The camp will have a wrangler to prepare meals for us. If we kill, we must get the meat to an area easily accessible to a horse. I have been working on accumulating gear for the last two years. I have taken my fitness levels to being in the best shape that I have ever been in and have lost 29lbs this year. I have been drawn for a coastal Georgia hog hunt this year and plan to use it as a practice run for my gear. I have spent a lot of time on this website over the last two years and have learned a great deal. After this hunt I plan to start doing camping hunts in North Georgia for bear as well as other species out west and in the midwest. Thanks in advance.
