    I have to agree.. I don't eat breakfast before I get in the tree.... otherwise I will be down and up against a tree w/in 30 min of first light.

    Ive learned that a whole pot of coffee and 3 gas station burritos does not treat a man well once in the stand.

    I always eat breakfast before I hunt. By the time I wake up and I'm in a tree, 90 plus minutes as passed. Eat early and drink coffee. By the time I hit my hunting spot it is time to use the bathroom and I don't have to worry about that crap anymore.

    Raw dough and a pop? Was this meant to be for comedic relief or an actual "tip"? :lol: Haha! I think staying away from eating raw dough and pop, especially together, is common sense. I just grab an apple, banana, or an oatmeal crunch bar thingy.

    I never eat before a morning hunt and brush my teeth with baking soda and rinse with diluted Hydrogen Peroxide, if you wash your clothes with DDW and use a field spray you are wasting your money if you don't take care of that stinky morning breath.

    I was turkey hunting this year and had been chopping up some fresh garlic the night before for the top of a leg of lamb roast. I even with washing my hands ten times I could still smell it the next morning... another thing to add to my don't eat the night before a hunt list!

    I never care to eat in the morning. When I get up at 4:30 am to get on stand, eating is the last thing on my mind. I will eat mid-day. Even during the work week, I never eat when I get up. Maybe something 3 or 4 hours later.

    I have found as I get older that in the fall and winter if I am going to be outside in the cool temps I have to eat before I head out or I will be cold, guess it is like putting wood in the stove.

    That was a great article.

    I don't so much have issues with the breakfast biscuit I eat in the morning. It's the Great Wall all you can eat Chinese buffet from the night before that sends me down the tree to look for a spot.
