You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.

Toilet paper. Can't do any kind of hunt without it! You will need it. Want it. And regret it if you don't bring it.

Yeah, definitely ALWAYS have to have toilet paper...Well, like Thumper, I too MUST have my boonie hat. My shooting stix & seat cushion are two other ABSOLUTES. My other must have, is approx 3 mouth calls & a mouse squeaker (bulb) in my foxpro bag at ALL times. In case foxpro batteries die, or just wanting to use the mouth calls. A camera is also good.Forgot one... A FACE NET... very important IMO (especially in my case. lol)Frank

Other one is my trusty old backpack. The wife bought me a flash brand new one 3 years ago to replace the faded old and many times repaired old pack, but can't bring myself to use the new pack. Also keep a golf ball in my old pack for luck, although have never played the game. It gets worse, like I won't shoot any type of bird (except Indian Minors) for superstitious reasons, wear a lucky hunting shirt, lucky boots, and of course, lucky camo underwear. Then the ammo box must be loaded into the car with latches facing the right, rifle case next to it with latches facing the left. There's more.. way more, but this post is getting long :smiley-innocent-halo-yellow:

LOL! Frank seems more practical than superstitious. Oz, on the other hand, might be barking mad! Tell us more, Oz! :smiley-innocent-halo-yellow:

My superstition is to Grab the rifle I think will get the job done. So I Hurry to the safe, and yank out the Remmington... But after another cup of coffee, I put it back and grab the Tikka! :smiley-innocent-halo-yellow: Just Kidding Frank! LOL Your turn!

LOL... Now the solution, Grant, would be to leave the coffee alone. The caffeine is messing with your mnd. Hmmmmmm, then again, & with my (bad) luck, you're probably drinking the de-caffeinated coffee. LOL :smiley-innocent-halo-yellow:
