That was a fun read. Reminded me of something Pat McManus would have written.
I have to laugh at all the gadgets we hunters "have" to have to go into the woods these days. My goodness, if it wasn't for my side by side utility vehicle and trailer to carry all this stuff I'd never be able to get out hunting. I have to leave at 2:00 am now just to get it all set up by daybreak!
Just kidding of course. But that what it seems like on TV.
I'm happy with just my rifle, knife, drag rope, canteen, sandwich and apple or candy bar. I'm good for the day.
