- Hand held pruning shears ..for twigs I forgot about.
- Folding buck knife..to gut out deer in case it's too big.
- 38 revolver..for any mishaps
- a few trail tacks..in case I decide to move my stand.
- plastic gloves ..for cleaning a hog.
- key for my locked up stand
- pee bottle..one that won't make noise.
- 10x 42 Leupold binoculars..Florida is prime migratory time..warblers
- Grunt call
- Hunting license...make sure we are up to date..
