I'm thinking a couple different knives to work with, some cheesecloth sacks, and probably a bigger backpack then I usually carry, and some paper towels and a bottle of water to clean up with. Should I need much more than that?


All you need is a suitable pack, a knife, game bags and experience with knowing where the joints and muscle groups are. I don't carry multiple knives nor paper towels.
