A few years ago I suddenly realized my primary hunting daypack was getting heavier--and not just because I was getting older.
Part of the reason was I get sent or given a lot of stuff to "field test," and tended to just toss items in the pack. Dumped everything out, and duscovered I had four headlamps, several knives, etc. Put the stuff I liked best back, and discovered it had lost about a third of its weight!
