AdvantageTimberLou Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Re: pack stuff a small pocket game like a Yatzee is nice to have, it breaks up the time. Maybe a Gameboy too. Take some water, an energy bar, compass, GPS, knife, rope, matches. Have fun on your trip! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnf Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Re: pack stuff Rubber gloves. I don't think I would clean a wild hog without gloves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest realtrhunter Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Re: pack stuff Deffinatly cleaning gloves that go up to your elbows. Wild hogs can carry a bacteria that will make you sick. It is killed when you cook the meat though, just make sure you cook it well. Plenty of ammo, make sure there is always at least one shot left, they can get pretty mean if they get T'ed off.

Turkeygirl Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Re: pack stuff First Aid kit....you never know what is going to happen. Shapr knife....if it's cold weather, extra gloves, hat, socks...or some of those hand warmers you can crinkle up and they get toasty warm, Cell phone... rain gear in case it rains...and basically everyone else has covered it. Maybe a small portable knife sharpener if your knife gets dull cleaning out a hog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
