Let's see your Hunting Bag, and what's in it...

[Jim Thompson]

I'm a 53 year old new school fella although when I carry the smoke pole I carry the "possibles" in this bag too

This is what I tend to carry as the season unfolds.

Water if no coffee or if all day hunt
Grunt
Can call
Antlers

Backup release
Pull rope
Binos (sometimes already wearing them)
Sockhat once it cools off
Neck Gaiter once it cools off
Thermocell if any chance of the devil showing up
Headlamp and spare batteries
Skinning knife (depending where I am hunting), pocket knife always
Small multi tool
Thin gloves
Around the waist muff when it cools off
Umbrella if any chance of rain
Rolled up waterproof boonie hat. Stays in bottom of bag all season

Mine is patterned after the Scottish Sporran but with a shoulder strap, made by Ed Lunderman. It always has these items in it, not matter what type hunting season is in. Lense cleaner, compass, collapsible wire gun cleaning rod with silicon patches, cordage, antler predator call and lanyard made by Lamar Pullen, flint & steel with char, bee wax candle stub, chert knife blade and extra chert striker all in a 1750`s style tin box, bug dope, blood clotter, flashlight, knife sharpener, and ferro rod.
