They can basically be broken down into three modified kits: early season archery, October rifle hunts, and late season November rifle hunts.

[@KoaPennock]

earplugs and a supressor.... very careful haha nice

[@andrewleonard4490]

I love my Feathered Friends Raven bag. Whenever I get in it I think about all the big bucks out there.

[@Argali]

hahaha

[@thomasteac8919]

I would like to see you put a first aid kit together might save your life one day💯

[@Argali]

I actually do carry one. Forgot to include it in the video so good catch.

[@jakemeek2459]

Where is the hunt!!!!!!!!!

[@wa2txcory]

You mentioned a pistol carry on your pack? I don’t see that in your items do you mind sharing what you use for carry. Been using concealed carry fanny pack but would like something else. Thanks.

[@Argali]

I use a Razco holster that attaches on the MOLLE webbing on my hip belt when I hunt in Griz country. Works real well.

[@208bowmaddnneess]

I’d recommend a scope/action cover. One of the units with some padding for protection would be a good addition.

[@Joel_Unbound]

I just did this for a BHA event Brad and funny enough we have a lot of similar kit including textured orange gloves and of course Nosler Mt Carbon 28 nosler with just a few differences. Good Video and Happy hunting!

[@Argali]

you too!

[@joelmiller569]

You said 12x50 binos in video but description below says 10x42. Just a heads up Brad. Appreciate the video!

[@Argali]

Thanks for the heads up! Just changed it. Appreciate the watch!

[@J_pearce01]

What kind of can is on your gun?

[@Argali]

Brad uses the Nosler SR-30ALTI Suppressor.

[@buglelk6735]

Any reason you dont put your sleeping bag in a stuff sack for packing to save on space?

[@Argali]

I find it takes a lot less space by not using a stuff sack. I only do this when space is tight in my pack. you can shove the bag in between the pockets of space between your other gear instead of one cylinder shape.

[@PhilDoesItAll]

@@ArgaliI agree. Stuff sacks are nice if you’re going camping and need to save room in your truck or something while still protecting your sleeping bag, but going back country hunting where everything needs to fit in a backpack, stuffing that sleeping bag into every crevice around the crap in your backpack is a much better option for saving space.

[@joelmiller569]

Also, can I ask final weight of pack?

[@Argali]

Forgot to weigh this one but we will do that on the next video we are doing soon.
