1. Don't tie your boot strings to tight.
Tight boots cut of circulation, and make your feet get cold faster.

2. Carry an extra pair of socks and change them, at lunch time.
It will make you feel like you have been sleeping, and refreshed.

3. A couple wraps of Duct tape around your boot laces, will keep the grass, and briers from untying the strings.

4. Wear layers instead of a thick bulky coat, and pants.
While wearing layers, you can take off some of the layers if it gets warm.
But you can't take off any thing with a big bulky coat, or pants.
Kind of loose fitting, tight stuff makes you un1. Don't tie your boot strings to tight.

Kind of loose fitting, tight stuff makes you uncomfortable.

5. Wear an insulated warm hat, and bring a non insulated hat for when it gets warm.
And some warm and non warm gloves with finger holes for the trigger.

6. Bring non noisy lunch, some that doesn’t rattle, and or cringe.
And a thermos of coffee or some hot liquid to help keep warm.

7. A comfortable tree stand, with a big platform, and remember the fall restraint system.

8. Bring some form of rain gear, you won't be there to long if you are wet.

9. Get an arm rest in case you fall asleep, and to rest your gun, or a bow hanger.

10. One or two of those little arms that you put beside you to hang extra gear on, that attach to the tree.

11. Attach a detailed map to where you are hunting, so you can be found if something goes wrong.
In your windshield, or on the driver’s side window.
But most of all is to be careful, and safe, so you can hunt again another day.
And have fun.
