Default Gearing Up?

What do you need to add/replenish gear/ammo wise to help make your season successful this year.

Still need a replace a pair of snake proof boots, some conicals for an ML, a rangefinder and some ammo.

I think I need to stock up on a new rabbit's foot. The one I used last year didn't bring me good luck!

Seriously, though, I think all my gear is in good shape. I'm pretty well set for gear after hunting elk for 10 years in the same place, same season. My boot soles are getting thinner, but I think they are good for this season. I hope my truck tires are good for another season but will evaluate that later in the year.

I need some new freezer bags for my vacuum packer. All the old ones are full of venison!

Some latex gloves. Sharpen up the knives. Protein bars.

Get my wife and her new rifle to the range
Get airline tickets to WY
Get hotel reservations in WY (staying longer than the hunt itself)
Draw the WY tags (should be all set come June)

For local, all set (above list will cover local needs as well), well actually have to practice and figure out my new climbing treestand I bought to replace the hang on one some jerk stole.

Range time, meat grinder, and some more ammo wouldn't hurt.
