I like to go lite.. a gun, some TP, a few mouth calls, gloves, and a headnet... oh and some shells and water...
how much stuff do you carry with you on a hunt?
No gun? :TooFunny: I carry a vest. gun, shells, water, gps, shooting stick, 2 pots, 4 strikers, 1 box, a few mouth calls, owl and crow call, flashlight, tp, headnet, gloves, sometimes decoys, and a camera, sometimes a video camera, and a knife.
Just depends on what I will be doing and who I am hunting with or by myself.
When my son goes, depending on set up and where the birds are roosted (hopefully I'll find them this year) Blind, 2 chairs, 2 guns (or gun and bow), vest with 1 pot with 4-5 strikers, 5-6 mouth calls, crow, woodpecker, owl calls, gobbler shaker, camera, tripod, video camera, water, backpack with iPod, color books, crayons, lots of food, water (usually camel pak), TP, head light x 2, knife, shooting stick, 1-3 decoys.
By myself => gun with 6 shells, Gobbler lounger, vest with above calls, food, water, shooting stick, TP, headlight, knife, camera, 1-3 decoys, tripod
Just gonna take my squealing hen......I don't even need my shotgun when I carry that call!
