vagobbln Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Got to thinking about this while sitting in the stand the other evening and maybe it can help some of the new hunters. We're flooding every year with the latest and greatest hunting gear. Some of it works and some doesn't. What are those items you've found over the years that really work or just make hunting easier and more enjoyable (aside from the obvious ones like a gun, bow or toilet paper!)? I'll give you a few of mine: Crooked Horn Binocular Harness Strapper (retractable pull up strap) EZ Hanger Laser Rangefinder Grunt call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vagobbln Posted October 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Re: Must have Deer Gear Well Congratulations RangerClay! You and I are the only ones to ever buy hunting equipment that works! These other guys are obviously Cough Silencer owners too embarrassed to speak up.

LifeNRA Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Re: Must have Deer Gear After breaking two of my favorite Buck knives I decided to buy one of these! Mannnnnnnnn, do they make the job a lot easier!!! A pelvic bone saw! http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templa...w&noImage=0 Also, this made LIFE a lot easier too! No need to mark any of my trails to find my stand, or for anybody else to find my stand! Which has happened to me already, and I am sure others as well!

Guest archer8030 Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Re: Must have Deer Gear Here in SC, during the warm months, you wouldn't catch me dead with out my ThermaCell. Other than that: A good sharp knife, a finely tuned instrument of death (Rifel or bow), good light, and a Glenn's Deer Handle for dragging them out.
