Essentials other than gun, ammo, and clothing. Many other items not considered essential.
1. Cell phone in case of an emergency or to call for assistance
2. Compass to keep from getting turned around when scouting or looking for a deer. Never needs batteries.
3. Pocket knife to cut out the date on a tag
4. Pen to fill out tag info
5. TP
6. Flashlight on evening hunts
7. Thermacell if there is any chance of mosquitos
8. Blaze orange vest or cap to wear going to and returning from the stand

By myself, I really don't need anything other than rifle, ammo, binocs, and iphone. If I have 1, 2 or god forbid all 3 kids with me, I need 3 fully charged ipads, 5 pounds of snacks, 3 gallons of kids drinks, 30 kids books, 300 toys (per kid), 2 bb guns, 1 nerf gun, dvd player, 10 movies, toilet paper, wipes, 3 changes of clothes, heater, blankets, pillows, and valium (for dad). If I bring all that, we can hunt a solid 45 minutes in the stand before we get in the truck and corn roads.

how long does the Thermacell butane ctg. last? Website says each strip
last 4 hours; going to Guadalupe Delta WMA for yute hunt next month, so
buying my first Thermacell,,,maybe not the last
i never forget extra's of critical stuff i,e, guns, ammo, lights, warm clothes
and rain gear; i can go without booze for a couple of days & even eat less, but
that's what i see as important

I want to say they last about eight hours. I keep extras in my backpack. When the mosquitos start biting you it's time to change it out.
