I once hiked about a half mile through snow with a stand and climbing sticks, bow to find I had forgotten my arrows! I have to take my quiver off for it to fit in my case. I put the quiver in the back of my SUV, not in the case.

When I was in College a buddy and I drove three hours to Duck Hunt. When we got to the spot he realized he forgot his gun. That is a whole nother story with a long night as the excuse.
