Takin anything to the field other than a sharp knife and loin cloth is for city slickers.   :bigsmyl:  

Oh, and if your huntin in the SC lowcountry Jan thru December, a thermacel is allowed.  I'm a believer. Sorry.   :thumbsup:

buck lure inscents,  I just pee in scrapes.  200$ camo. ec. I ran into a wheelie guy hunting once. He looked like a walking takle box that was open. Sounded like one too.    :bigsmyl:

Talondale, I forgot about the Gum-o-flage. If I hadn't seen the scent killin gum with my own eyes on a hightech huntin show I'd never'd believed it.

Tom, how'r you gonna get a spot on "Dream Season" if you don't use Scentblocker products.  

Heres a couple: Bait Feeders, Deer-cane, C'mere Deer.

But..........do these laundry detergents contain UV Brighteners ??

"Back-up" firearms. Is you bow hunting, or gun hunting?

Poly "rope" This crap stretches, and stretches some more. Ain't worth its weight to carry. Useless for trying tie meat onto a pack frame.

Them HUGE "SURVIVAL" knives. Going to a sword fight?

I swear I saw "unscented chapstick" at walmart the other night! I don't recall the catchy name they had on the package, but I'm sure it was real stupid!

I second ATV's.  (I'm utterly boggled as to why some of the local yoohoos fire up their ATV's to hunt the back 40's.  Just turning the key alerts every deer on the farm.)

Nylon leaves to stick on your clothes and treestand.  (People buy these?!)

Backpacks and slings to carry your bow, and as I've seen, to carry other packs.  (Again...?)

"Still Steamin' Buck...Ummmm, yeah.  (As if buck urine isn't disgusting enough.)

Deer calls I saw mentioned on another post, called a buck "growl" and buck "roar".  (I suppose a buck bugle, buck belch, and buck trumpet will follow.  I envision the buck trumpet as an 8-foot tube of 6-inch plastic to replicate an elephant's instrument, with an air horn to blast into it.  Mark my words, look for it next year.)

The current rage of tent blinds.  (I admit, they sure look pretty all camoed up and shiny with their broad flat surfaces.  Though I can't help but notice their catchy, light reflective nylon gleaming across vast fields, I still have a funny preference for unassuming, natural brush and log blinds.)

what nobody mentioned the deer view mirror? or cough muffler? Or those camoed sunglasses so the game won't see your eyes?
