Granola Bar, 20 ounce coffee, and a chew.

I gotta say, there are some interesting breakfast choices listed here. I'm also one of those guys thatmust eat upon waking up. I try to stay pretty fit and like to get the fire burning (metabolism) as soon as I can after waking up. I've also read (and experienced) that eating a high carb breakfast helps the brain stay alert while on stand. (High carb/low sugar; a lot of sugar triggers the pancrease to release as much insulin needed to override the sugar causing you to "crash")

I usually try to eat something like oatmeal or a healthy choice of cereal. I also drink a good amount of coffee on the way to my hunting spot. I make all attempts to get "cleaned out" before I climb the tree.

That way I can enjoy a couple dips while on stand and not wind up having to take a massive just when the deer show up.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

A Monster energy drink or sometimes coffee, I think I'll bring some jerky along to eat in stand this year.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

biscuts and gravyyyy and bacon!!!! and some milk to go with that!

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

I drink a coffee because the deer love my breath...and then I have a granolo bar or something small....

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

A quickie!

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Its usually bacon and eggs or a bacon sandwich along with water.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Young guys need the energy drink before a hunt, it should almost be a rule ;)

Whats your preferance Rory?

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Amp or Rockstar. I hate the Monsters.
What about you?

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Oh man im all about the Monsters or Full Throttle. Amp and Rockstar are ok. The Jeff Gordon Energy is good too.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Breakfast? I wish I could have breakfast before a hunt, rarely happens.

If I'm lucky might use the coffee pot to make some instant oatmeal.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

A hearty dump prior to leaving for the woods, and a cup of coffee which is usually 2 cups. I usually take water or mt dew with me to the stand.

I have eatin a full breakfast and ended up taking a big old DUMP in the woods, just after day break. NOT GOOD!!!!!!!

SO ITS JUST COFFEE!!!!!

I was all about the Monsters too, until I started trying to lose weight for elk season. Those steep canyons werent too friendly last year when i was at 207. I cut out the energy drinks and started drinking more water instead and now I'm going into hunting season this year at 185. ;)

As for breakfast before the hunt....coffee and a maple bar!

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

My metabolism is through the roof....so i dont have that problem...yet :(

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

wait till you get older! when i was in college i could eat a whole medium pizza by myself and never gain a pound.... now i can't even eat a cheeseburger and fries without it showing up on the scale.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Hard boiled eggs and an apple usually.I will carry a bottle of water with me foroccaisional sips.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?

Diet coke and a banana and a Special K bar. I love coffee, but can't hold it in after about 2 hours, either end.

a cup of coffee and and an egg sandwich with either sausage, bacon or taylor ham. I'll eat this on the way there.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Well hell, let's eat 4 packs and really stock up.[8D]

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Wouldn't that cause you to blow a tire, hit the wall, and run 42nd? :D

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Favorite breakfast?...................... see my sig.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Usually just coffee! I'll eat breakfast when I get back to the house. If my dad is hunting with me, we usually do breakfast out somewhere. I think the older my dad gets, the more he looks forward to the breakfast than he does the hunting. It's one of the rare times throughout the year where we can actually sit and talk!!

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

If I happen to wake up in timeI might grab a bowl of cereal, other then that just coffee on the way to the land.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Usually something low impact on the stomach like a poptart or a few powered donuts...... Usually wash it down with a diet coke.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

I generally drink a glass of Carnation instant breakfeast. They are awesome!

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

granola bar, or oatmeal, or peanut butter sandwitch, and coffee

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Coffee maybe toast. But when you come back its the whole nine yards-pancakes, eggs, bacon, egg sandwichs and such..

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Buttered Roll....the thought of bacon in the morning before a hunt is not appealing to me..that smell has to stay with you all day

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

as for the energy drinks it has to be the monsters.. they rock.. my cousin is a salesman for 7-up so i get them alot.

i think it is hilarious that everyone is talking about taking a dump and such. i have my body on a schedule and do not poop until the afternoon.


as far as breakfast.. if i eat something quick.. i like to hunt but the mornings hate me... so i am always in a hurry... usually something in a wrapper. but i always carry an apple or twowith me and while i am sitting in the dark eat them.
afterthrowing them down i have had deer come up and nibble on them.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Usually it's a slim fast bar and a diet dr. pepper. I usuually take another bar for the set.

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

I usually have donuts on my drive to the woods.. During gun season grandpa gets up early and cooks bacon and eggs etc.. But that's only for the short few days..
Usually the donuts on the run during bow season though.. And Chocolate Milk. :D

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

Nah most of the time my crew gets the bow set up perfectly and i win from the pole :D

RE: Favorite Breakfast before the hunt?
 

I eat nothing for breakfast so I don't have to let terds fly! I do however pig out when I get in before the evening hunt!
