knife
grunt call
compass
fire

magicman, I bet carrying fire around can become quite a nuisance. Especially when you're trying to avoid any "beard cinging"

you guys forgot the most important thing of all, Tags to fill out! another little thing that i carry is one of those cheap little knife sharpeners. sometimes after getting half way through gutting a deer and cutting through the ribcage your knife dulls up, a couple strokes touches it up a little. Like the old saying goes
"a dull knife is more dangerous then a sharp one"

qmil, you are right about the tags, but the knives I carry hold an edge pretty good. I do all dressing of deer at home.

I trap it in a plastic container. Then if I need it I spin the magical wheel that brings forth sparks that conjure up the flame. Oh ya, I also hold it away from my face.

I really don't carry a pack.
I carry in my pocket:
knife
cell phone
flashlight
grunt call
coyote call
bow hook
thin hoist rope
sometimes my camera
and binos around my neck!

I used to carry in with me on every hunt all things I "might" need, not any more! I have a separate cleaning pack that I'll go back to the truck and get once I shoot a deer, no matter how far the walk! This gives the deer time to expire and I can drop off stuff I DON"T need while I clean then drag my deer out! This cleaning pack has an extra flashlight, water, towel, saw, drag rope and cleaning gloves.
