HUNTING EQUIPMENT PACKING LIST ARCHERY / GUN
We at the All-Canada Show are avid hunters and over the years we’ve developed a master packing list. We’re providing
our list to you as a guide of what you might consider taking with you to Canada.
Every trip is different, so only bring items you need for the type of hunting trip you are taking. Weight restriction will also
factor into what you take.
