Small Game Hunting Packing List

Typically, when I go hunting for small game it’s only for a day. I usually wrap up a little after lunch if it was a good enough morning, to be honest. Below is a list of everything I bring with me. I wanted to make a list so you can see what you might want to bring as well.

Clothing

• Boots or comfortable shoes. (keep in mind that morning dew can drench your feet)

• Overalls or pants made from synthetic fabric. (get something durable that can handle thorns)

• Small game hunting vest with pockets for shells, and a back pocket for the kill

• Lightweight jacket or hoodie (nothing too warm because you’re gonna be moving a lot)

• Orange hat or vest (even if it’s not required I highly recommend you bring it so your gun line can see you)

• Gloves for moving debris or pulling at thorny brush

Equipment

• Shotgun

• No. 6 shotshells (at least 20)

• Headlamp (for getting in place before sunrise)

On Truck

• Skinning knives

• Ziploc bags

• Yeti Cooler

• Water and Gatorade

• Lunch and snack stuff

• Plastic foldable cutting board

• Hand sanitizer

• Baby wipes
