I would have both, just in case. But I wanted to point out a much less expensive alternative to Selfgrip. The exact same material is sold under the name Vetrap for use on horses. It costs about 1/3 or less of the human version because it does not have to be approved by the FDA the same way. It will work great as a bandage to hold gauze pads in place, or similar uses.

Re: First aid kit questions

My experience is that Gall's line of EMS supplies is better than I know what to do with. Gall's is a large police supply company, but they also sell EMS and Fire supplies. When I was looking for trauma kits for the TABC firearms range, we went with one of their basic life support kits. It included everything I knew how to use, plus a lot more. Add some Quickclot and you have a very good hunting first aid kit.
