First deer hunt first back county experience

[rcsmyth]

Hey Guys my name is Ryan and I am primarily an upland hunter but I have the oppertunity to go on my first deer hunt on horse back into the back country of D8 I have a few questions about carrying gear. Will using a standard back packing pack be sufficent to carry gear and would you wear these as you ride. As far as clothing and/camping gear is comcerned I am covered anything you can advice me on about carrying the bulk of my stuff would be great we will be out about 4 days so its not a really long stay from civilization I will appreciate any advice you can give
Thanks

Not sure is you left yet but the Army has been putting on miles for quite a few years.

Go to a resale store and buy used.

If you like it you can upgrade later.

I wouldn't invest a lot of money upfront until you are sure that it is for you.

Just the two cents of a frugal man.
