Yes the good old days!
All you need was a good pair of boots, your rifle and a jacket.
Now you need a John Deer tractor, seed, weed killer, a deer lease, and a tree stand.
I miss the old days.

I lean toward the hunting over the gear, but if you can take gear with some family history, you're ahead of the game, in my book.
