I' ve noticed that no one has mentioned anything about taking coffee out with them? Is this a deer hunting no-no that I' m not aware of?

On cold mornings (almost always) I take a thermos of coffee. I have heard the arguments against, but it sure knocks the chill off. When my younger son goes with me, I take hot chocolate for him. Other than seeing deer, the hot chocolate is the highlight of his morning.

I' ve often wondered if the smell of coffee is enough to spook deer. I suppose a safe alternative to coffee would be to heat up some plain water and put it in a thermos. The only thing lacking would be the caffeine. I' m not sure if could give that up.

I usually do not bring any snack into the wods while hunting, that is with the exception of tootsie-pops. Yep, I would feel lost wthout them. Outside of that, I do occasionally get hungry but never that much that would alter my routine. I always try to make it a plan of action to stay in the woods (self-climber) all day, dark ' til dark. If I come out, it' s because I' m helping one of my buddies (or myself) do a little draggin' .

I make up a bag of trail mix the night before a hunt with peanuts and raisins and I take a bottle of Coke and a water. Can' t stand coffee but need the cafine. I also take a couple of apples along too.

my snacks of choice would have to be beef or deer jerky and peanuts. With some water to wash it down.
