If there's one thing you can't neglect, it's footwear. You need to wear something that has a sole that's soft/thin enough so you can feel the ground as you lay your foot down. You have to be able to feel a stick before you transfer the weight to that foot, otherwise you may end up breaking the stick and making noise.


Another thing that I haven't seen much discussion about is the heel of your shoe. Today's boots and shoes often have raised heels, the more raised the heel is, the harder it'll be for you to woods walk. Basically you want a pair of shoes with flat soles. There are many commercial shoes that are suitable for this, LL Bean Maine Hunting Shoe, Teva Oriabi Moc, commercial mocs, or just a pair of heavy socks.
