I was kind of wondering to what degree of a meal all of you long day hunters take with you to the hunting stand. I usually take hot oatmeal fora snack and hot soup for lunch inside of those little insulated coolers. Everytime I open the soup though I think the whole county can smell it, and probably can but I have seen deer while eating or shortly after.

The best lunch I've ever had in stand is deer sausage, a nutty bar and an apple. YUM-O! Something about that nutty bar though.....I don't know how many times I've had a deer walk by while I was eating one.....

i dont really eat in the stand, even for an all day sit. i might take a bag of jerky, but thats it.

Apple, cookies, jerky

When/if I take food (a rarity)....I usually take a power bar or peanut butter sandwiches. Up until this season, though....my furthest walk to stand has been .7 mi from my home. I can be down and at my table in less than 30 minutes, tops.

If I sit for extended periods, this fall....I'll take shelled peanuts a lot. Great source of protein....and the smell shouldn't be something I'd worry about. I used to feed in my woods with a mix of corn/peanuts. I KNOW they love peanuts....lol.

Man that is me! A nutty bar is a must in my pack. No matter if its an all day sit or just a couple of hours I pack at least one. I also carry apples, PB&J sandwiches, and granola bars. The quantity varies depending on the length of the hunt.

Da nutty bar, that deserves a post of its own. When I eat those things I actually seperate the layers and eat them individually.

There's another way???

Nutty Bar, Peanut Butter Sandwich and Apples. I don't eat much when I'm in stand unless it's an all day hunt.
