[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3574737, member: 15054"] I used to carry binoculars to the hunting woods but found out it was a novelty item for me. If I could not see it with my naked eyes I could get a good shot at it anyway. I have a scope on my rifle if I need to glass an area. And if I see something then I could quickly put the bead on it and drop it. Binoculars are more weight I do not need to have. Back packs I suppose in a multi day trip they would be good. But for a day out I can fit all I need in my pockets and then nothing hanging off my body that can get hung up while working my way through the thickets. I may be odd man out but I do not need much for a day trip. Most hunters go into the woods and not more than 700 yards from their vehicle and will return at noonish or 3. Do you really need a back pack full of stuff and a bunch of water or food. I am there to hunt Indian style you can eat and drink later, you will not die in a day without food or water. I am probably odd man out. I have taken people hunting that came full New camo and high dollar back pack that weighed 20+ lbs and they could not even climb a tree with all the stuff and not a single rope or 550 cord. Which will fit in your pockets! Now I did take a back pack on a weekend trip to the woods though. I suppose for a bug out bag it would be good to have one stuffed and at the ready. Out. [/QUOTE]
