Food for sheep hunt

[REMINGTON JIM]

I arrowed a Stone on a backpack hunt last year when I was 63. Just got back from an NWT Dall hunt......arrowed a nice Dall! You just go slower when you are old, but it is a great reason to stay in shape/get in shape. When I was starting archery sheep hunting in 1980, never dreamed I'd complete a grand slam (ever) when I was 64, but it happened.

Well I'm happy with my food bag, next time will take half as much jerky. And try to find something higher in calories per oz to replace it with

Yeah nobody cares man, did you kill a sheep?!!!!

Dried onion, seasoning salt, pepper, garlic clove ........ To marinate your back straps in or rub onto your back straps or ribs when ya tag the critter, it's TERRIFIC !

not even two additional ounces , well worth it!

Only read 1/2 the thread but I would say your second list is a lot of food! I packed heavy on food this year and was up around 1.7lb per day....but you gotta carry it

All I would have added from the original list beside coffee is an energy like shot blocks and drink mixes (nuun, single serving packets of ice tea, whatever)

I was also wishing I packed a dessert every day.

Oh ya, put some bacon on that peanut butter and honey bagel, learned that one from Rackmastr, life changing

Good Luck!

Good on you i still hunt sheep at 58 but not with a bow that really takes commitment
