what do you take to stand
 
What do you guys carry in your pack with you? Trying to see what else I may need to bring along. I usually take snacks, water, cell phone, whistle, multi-tool, knife, lighter, matches, extra clothing, gloves, and a small towel. This will be my first year bow hunting and I want to know what else I should bring that I hadn't brought while hunting with a rifle.

My bow and my field glasses.

safety harness, binoculars, range finder (usually), and a couple calls. That is all. If I am going somewhere far enough "in" where it would be hard to crawl back to the truck in the event of a catastrophe, then I take the old cell phone or a 2-way radio/GPS unit.

I like to bring some reading material with as well; preferably not porn, as too distracting.;):D

Lots of Tinks 69 and I surround my stand with Buck Bombs.;)


Seriously, only thing I didn't see mentioned was pull rope (I have the API reel one).

Everything but the kitchen sink , I try to pack just anything I might need including lunch and plently of water.
When I go out for a hunt , I'm there from sun - up to sun - down and I wanna make sure I have enough water to drink and wash up after gutting my deer out.

I bring as little as possible! Bow, Saftey Harness, Rangefinder, Field Glasses, Knife, Cell Phone, 2 calls and Flashlight. When I shoot a deer I'll go back to the truck or Cabin and get my cleaning pack then go after my deer! I'll get rid of anything I do not need to lighten the Load! My cleaning pack has latex gloves, towel, small bottle soapy water, small bottle rinse water, extra knife, extra flash light with batteries and a 10' drag rope!
