I may leave my pack at home but a grunt goes with me all of the time.

I used to hunt with a tent and a sleeping bag. I now have a travel trailer and wont go back.

Gemlin how much is a travel trailer going to cost?

They're nice but they're $2000 aren't they?

You can get a good one for around $300

Can you link to a good one in that price range? Do they all work as binoculars, also? I'd want one that is combined bino and rangefinder.

Rubber gloves. Never used them much before, but have on my last two deer and now I'm a believer.

My iPhone. Seriously. It's my up to the minute weather forecast. I can check the timing of fronts/wind shifts/temperature and track precipitation on radar. It is also my walkie/talkie and messaging system. I often send texts to others that are across the ranch or in another blind to check on status without making a bunch of noise. I use it as my camera, and also as a flashlight on occasion. And I will admit it also keeps me occupied while waiting for Mr. Big.

Freezing toes have finally met their match.

Been using a backpack for years-bottle of water, snacks, additional clothing/headgear, knife, TP, small towel, flashlight...

I bring a Caddy! He's only 5, but helps with all this junk we carry to the stand.

If you know how to use them, a good set of Rattling Horns are a must have.

I'll second that, Huntin and fishin.

Rattled in 7 bucks in one set up, 1 buck in another spot and 2 bucks in another set up last Saturday.

It's a beautiful site to see and still makes the hair on neck stand up.

A Hammock Seat Chair... After years of hiking back country and getting to a perfect spot and then having to get comfortable while sitting on the ground and always cussing at how uncomfortable it was and being impossible to stay still for long periods of time, I started searching for something simple and lightweight "other than a cushion" to sit on. I found the hammock style of chair and it has worked amazingly well for me. I can't believe I didn't get one years ago.It has made a great improvement and added enjoyment to my packing in and sitting for long periods of time. I chose one from Fanatic outdoors.

Trust me, this is a game changer in cold weather. I'm fixing to buy a set of rechargeable heated insoles as well. [/quote]

The Thermacell heated insoles are awesome! I'm coveting that jacket too.

Backpack with everything I need. That would be just about everything mentioned above. Plenty of latex gloves and handiwipes are great for gutting and skinning a hog especially. Just used them this weekend on a hog for a friend. The handiwipes are great for cleaning off your knife in the field as well as hands.

Heated electric seats and a Bose system.
