So.....What Did YOU Forget?

[Lawdwaz]

So, what did you guys/gals forget?

Today I had everything but luck, I forgot nothing! There were a few things I couldn't find as fast as I wanted but damn, I have some many zippered pockets on my backpack, freestanding pouches and coat!!

I take this stuff WAY to serious to forget much.

How about you guys, forget anything substantial?

I forgot my pen/sharpie

I started a list a month ago. Everytime I thought of something I would need I would write it down. As things got packed into backpack or hunting jacket / pants I'd cross them off. Double checked before leaving this morning. And yes , I have entirely too much crap in my backpack I also make list when we go on vacation. Never have forgotten anything yet except that time I had daughter make checklist for things to pack. We arrived in Michigan and she/ we forgot her fully packed suitcase. Oh and this one time we went fishing and I forgot my waders ...

Same forgot my luck but did have my lucky hat. Maybe it was because I forgot my rangefinder. Edited November 22, 2015 by chas0218

Must be nice I didn't see a shooter all season (bow and so far gun).

[ATbuckhunter]

Nothing this time thankfully but that isn't always the case.

What do you mean "out of range", too far?

Quoted wrong post, my bad. Haha

[turkeyfeathers]

Cmon ... Who forgot TP ?'!?

[ApexerER]

I am just sitting here with my tummy rumbling thinking I didn't bring any TP....with my stomach that should be the first thing in my pack. Only sitting until 10....hoping I can "gut" it out....otherwise I will be losing a pair of socks

I forgot to stay in the woods all day. I left for an hour and jumped a deer near my seat when I returned. I am sure the guys that shot at it were happy, only deer I saw yesterday too. Also forgot my headlamp in my bow hunting pants but I had a flashlight backup.

I forgot to,have my wife buy more Hendricks gin while I was hunting !

So,I sent her out today. Came home ,to a nice scolloped potatoes and ham dinner and a stiff drink . Being the trophy husband has its perks !

[WNYBuckHunter]

Chairs for the blind. Made do and sat on the ground.

well ? Your feet get cold ?

I can't get over some of you dudes who need to use your socks to wipe your butts, if you forget the TP. Do you think people 100 years ago had Charmin double ply with them? Plenty of leaves on the ground to do the trick.

[mlammerhirt]

Gutting knife....could have sworn it was in my pack, ended up emptying the whole pack looking

for it to no avail. But on a positive note I ended up using a Havalon knife that my Dad won at a Gun raffle....wow that thing was amazing, razor sharp, nice compact size, and for the first

time in years I didn't stick myself while cutting out the esophagus.

some of us forgot our guns too so we have to throw spears and rocks.

[nyslowhand]

As I'm loading my ML with BP pellets and reach for the sabots...oh crap, must have left them home! Fortunately I had 3 of those tubes loaded with full charges and used a sabot from one of them. Duh..!

 

Other notable senior moments...

Forgot my bow release (once!) after walking ~200yrds towards the stand.

The dreaded walk-in the dark because batteries in flashlight were dead & no spares.

Turning around and driving back home to get certain clothing I'd forgotten.

And the obvious, forgot to be in a specific stand when the deer were near a different one, not where I was!
