Besides guns/bows, what are some must haves every time you go out on a hunt . Anything you discovered after years of hunting and wish you had found sooner?

When bowhunting....rangefinder is invaluable
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Used socks before, then t-shirt. Leave the underwear alone.

A pen or marker for your deer tag, ear muffs or ear plugs during rifle season. Those are 2 things that I've forgotten and regretted.
Haha yea I polished that thing for hours.

I carry a backpack with all kinds of stuff:
Binos, snacks, pee jug, water, phone, TP, knife, flashlight, rangefinder, thermacell, gloves,....I'm sure there's something I'm forgetting.
