I killed a lot of animals on public land and all I take is
Good knife with a small sharpener
Backpack big enough for a quartered deer. It doesn't take that big of a pack to get a quartered deer in especially if you don't take the ribs.
Small folding saw to cut the ribs off if I decide I want them.
2 pillow cases to put the meat in
Good headlamp with extra batteries
Drag rope just in case I'm close enough I want to drag it out.
I always field dress the deer if It is going to be a long drag out. Deer does not spoil that fast even in hot weather. A field dressed deer can go several hours without spoiling even with the temperature above 90. Were my buddies and I hunted on public land it was always at least 3 hours before we could get any deer on ice and it was always over 90 degree's out, a lot of the deer went 5+ hours before being on Ice and we never had a problem and this is on well over 100 deer.
