I think I will remove the items in the pack that you have covered.
And, I will go back to the basics of field work.
The fundamentals of the initial question were (which I did not clarify):
What amount of the basic supplies should I carry?
What are the most impt things to emphasize in a kit that I carry into the field when hunting, target practice, vacation, at home, in any situation to be honest?
The reason I ask this question is that Katrina left me in a bind to help a number of older adults and some younger individuals that were facing injuries and illnesses that I could not address with a bandaid or basics.
Again, I apologize for getting the thread onto the IV topic. However, you all have reinforced the idea that I was thinking beyond what I should have been thinking re my own skills and the issues involved.
I know the specifics listed above are still somewhat vague. I am under some time restraints because of where I am (mom's house) and I need to get home to my own computer to go into more detail.
As a newbie, and as someone that knew the ramifications of adv medical response, I am sorry that the initial thread was not more specific.
Thanks for the input, and if you have further suggestions as to what should and should not be included in a kit designed for everyday scapes to a gun shot in the woods, please advise
Thanks again,
William Pope
