Something I Sometimes Forget, Batteries.
Just a friendly reminder, batteries.
Some of you rangefinder users might want to consider installing fresh batteries for your laser rangefinder. I know they last a while in them but I'd hate to have a failure. I'm reminding myself as well.
Also, flashlights, it's best to have some spares.
Anything else?

I changed the bat in my rangefinder last week, and I store a spare in the case. Check your GPS units, and if you would happen to have a light on your sight, check those as well. As Rob eluded to, there would be nothing more frustrating that for something to not work because I didn't think of something as simple as a damn battery.

Cameras eat batteries when its cold, I keep my camera in an oldwool mitten with one of those paper hand warmers.
Of course you fair weather guy would not understand hunting in snow.

I prefer to have a head lamp. It allows you to have two free hands. The LED light uses little juice and lasts forever. I went over 4 years of camping and 2 of hunting and didn't have to replace them (I did just out of safety sake though). We're talking HOURS of light in warm and cold weather. And for those that don't have a four wheeler to drag the deer out of the woods, it's nice to see where you're walking while dragging.
