Default Lucky Charms

What do you bring with you on the hunt for good luck?
Any ritual you do before the hunt?

I bring my Cardeer necklace and I have a buck and doe beanie baby that
stay in that truck and I rub their head for good luck.

Nothing for good luck, but if I'm on a long trip I do bring along pictures that my daughter colors for me. I put them in a ziplock bag andthey stay in my pack.

Default RE: Lucky Charms

No lucky charms, but I perform the same ritual before every hunt....
1. Get up and eat a handful of dry cereal;
2. Look at the local forecast and setout the appropriate level of clothing;
3. Check over every piece of equipment;
4. Brush teeth and rinse several times with salt water;
5. Gear up and walk to stand;
6. Harness up and climb the stand;
7. Thank the Lord for another day on earth and pray that if a shooter does walk by, he ensure my shot to either make the kill quick and painless or a complete miss.

Then when I end the hunt for the day I always thank the Lord for another safe hunt (whether or not I make a kill).

She's 8 yrs old, got her a bow couple months ago and she loves shooting with mom and dad, doesn'thave any interest in herBB gun anymore. She made me cap and crest her arrows last week. Yeah, Dad's very proud
