As little as possible for me.
You can run but you can't hide...

I carry a backpack to the stand. Its got bino's, rangefinder, ozonics, windchecker, thermocell with extra pads and fuel, small led flashlight and green caplight, piece of rope, knife, water bottle and snacks. Occasionally a few beers for the evening hunt but I usually wait until I get back to camp.

A man with priorities!! in my backpack there is Binos, rangefinder, gloves, facemask, headlamp, allen wrench set, tape measure, zip ties, a small screw driver (that is flathead on one end and phillips on the other), a lightweight rain suit, water bottle, knife and first aid kit. Then, of course, I have my bow and arrows in hand!

Release! Never forget the release! Not saying that it ever happened to me or anything, but I can tell you shooting with fingers is VASTLY different than shooting with a release, especially when all you do is practice with a release.

Absolutely never forget your release. I forgot mine one morning after dropping everyone else at their stands all I could do was park the suburban and go to sleep till it was time to pick everyone up. I didn't dare go to my stand, I didn't want to see what I couldn't shoot and I will never deviate from the way I practice shooting.

Adult late onset hunter. Why did I wait so long to get started?
