I'll be going to the badlands in 2019 with my dad and put together a pack list that I'd love to get experienced eyes on. We'll probably be there for the opener because I get labor day off anyway and save a vacation day. I plan to do day hunts and camp by the vehicle for several reasons:
1. Not having to worry about finding water sources afield (and not having to drink from a stock tank)
2. Ease of packing up camp and moving if pressure is high or deer are not around
3. Keeping packs light (at least until we kill something), since my dad is 64.
We'll be in a floored tent on a nice big fat heavy air mattress. I have a tarp in my pack for emergencies and in case we want some shade while glassing.
The food is tentative, and would be different for my dad, since he's not on the low carb train, but we'll figure that part out.
Here's the list. Let me know what you think of the gear and the game plan. Dad will be similarly equipped, although there are some things we would not double up on like the tarp, coffee setup, etc.
Electrolyte replenishment of some sort is probably a good idea, so sugarless recommendations are welcome on that front.
