Need help managing weight

[HiMtnHnter]

I think you're doing good at 50 #. I'm at 185 but wanted to be at my hunting weight of 175 this year. It's getting harder and harder to loose the comfort chunk. ... at 50 #, that horse won't know you're there and you'll fly over that sage!

I will be going with Livingston Outfitters. I found out that my sleeping bag does not need to fit in my duffel. I think I will be ok hopefully. I was only 8 pounds overs with day pack and sleeping bag.

You should be fine. .if he throws a fit about that. .it could be a longgg hunt...but also, I would suggest keeping the 2 boxes of ammo as previously said as well...when doing deep backcountry horseback hunts. .Sh** happens sometimes with horses. I've had clients get to camp and shoot at a paper plate at 100 yards. .and be nowhere close. Then Spend 12+ shots getting back to dialed in. ..between airlines and horses, rifle scopes can easily get knocked off..better safe than sorry on ammo

Wooltimate is pretty heavy. I have a wooltimate vest and it is a furnace but I rarely use it because of the weight and thickness.

Have fun and good luck. You should have a memorable trip.

They may have game bags for you, Eli mate the wool stuff and go to merino wool underlayer.
I use a kuiu Yukon coat and pants for my rain gear that doubles as cold weather gear if u have merino underlayer. I can handle 20 degrees sitting with a merino layer, wind shear vest, superdown kuiu coat, and Yukon rain coat. Loose a box of shells unless you can't shoot. Lol. I would add socks and eliminate the camp shoes if u can. Just some ideas. Hope it helps. Everyone has given some great ideas.
