I will usually get all my stuff organized a day or two before season opens. I know where all my stuff is so it is easier for me to organize on such short notice.

These polls that the choices keep changing after I vote are driving me nuts.....but then again, that doesn't take much gas. [&:]

I organize my stuff (except my bow and arrows) whenI put it into the scent-free bags, about a month before season. One bag has inner clothing, another has outer clothing, another has heavy clothing, one has my backpack and another has gear stuff. I don't open the bags until the day (usually early morning) of the hunt.

Uh... the night before.

Hubby told me I should get all of our stuff out and lay it out tonight while he was at work... I was like... I got two more days to do it!

I'm so excited, and oddly enough hunting season is the only thing I ever get excited about anymore. I went on a week long trip to Florida last year... couldn't get excited for that, enjoyed myself, but I sure was excited when I got back and only had 2 weeks til bow season kicked off! LOL
