What's your favorite thing you don't "need"
 
What accessory or product did you buy or are thinking of buying that you really don't need but that you like to have with you?

I got a whole back pack full of gear last year that I could have condensed into a small pouch.

im thinking about buying the cabelas bow back pack, not sure the price is kinda high i think. i also dont really need it but it would be handy since i have a ways to walk down the road to get to the property im hunting.

Grunt tube. Although technically I don't "need" it, I would rank it right up there with my bow as far as things I'd not enter the woods without. I don't carry much extraneous gear into the woods, but my grunter is one thing that's always with me.

Compass! I don't really need it because i know our property like the back of my hand. I think it's more a piece of mind type thing for me than anything else. We do have lots of swamps that joins our property that i've never been in and it's never happened before but if a deer was to ever run that far and you have to track deep in those swamps i want to be able to get out of there. No telling what lives in those swamps and i don't care to spend the night in there with the boogy man:D.

Hands down - Binoculars
Two years ago I would have said the very same thing. Since then, the game commission has introduced antler restrictions. Now, I don't go in the woods without binos. They are FREQUENTLY used to verify a bucks size/rack as he approaches in low light conditions. Now I even use them in not so low light conditions (saves getting all worked up over a legally shootable, but not necessarily desireable, 'little' buck).

After letting several bucks walk the first season antler restrictions were introduced because I wasn't able to verify the rack size, I learned how critical binos can be. Heck... I even upgraded to a decent set of compact 8x40's for better light penetration (major difference!).

My gps unit. I like to paint a picture in my gps of diffrent sign that I've found or a specific tree to hang a stand in. It's definately not needed but very useful.

Camera and binoculars, I always wanted to look through my binoculars and see a nice buck coming in my direction and just before he gets into range take a pic of him! But the places i always end up hunting is so thick that by the time i see one it so close that i if i looked throgh the bino`s all i would see is brown and if i took a pic well thats all i would get is a pic it would be to late to shot but i always got them with me for some reason
