Besides your rifle or your bow, whats the one item you can't do without? Whether it be on a backpack hunt or close to your vehicle what's your favorite item you have come to love?
Something that I always bring: electrical tape. Works great if one has a cut to seal it up, apply pressure. Tape tags on after a kill. Fix boots, makeshift belt, etc.
Never really thought about it but I think I have some sort of light beanie in every pack I own and in the console of my truck.
Cool mornings on my bald head gives me headaches.
Got caught a couple of times. I keep a half roll of TP in a Zip-Loc in my hunting pack.
No gun and I couldn't hunt anyway. No TP and you've got a "real mess" on your hands!
Number 2 (no pun intended!) is water.
