Another year, another gear list! I was lucky enough to draw another high country mule deer tag in Colorado this year. This will be a backcountry archery hunt for 10 days above treeline! Last year was the first year that I had ever done a high country mule deer hunt and I got absolutely hooked on it. So, the fact that I get to return this year is causing anticipation to shoot through the roof.
In the midst of planning and preparing, I thought it would be cool to do another gear video. Similar to the one that I did last year on what I’m bringing with me into the field for a 10 day backcountry hunt in Colorado. I’ll lay out everything and go through each item I plan on bringing. If you have any questions, feel free to email me or hit me up on social media. This is usually digested better in video form, so here ya go!
