    Gotta have: (Other than the basics, which everyone has mentioned)

    Water
    Oreos
    comfortable seat
    a stand that leans back just so.
    If you are not comfortable, you won't stay as long as you should!

    Beyond the basics, a reliable source for the weather is by far the most important tool I use. It determines when and where I hunt every day.

    hahahaha I like the emphasis on practice. So I also noticed you have a "drag buddy" and a "buddy to help drag". You said it twice on accident right!? The first one isn't a drag:dan:buddy, right!? hahaha Just bustin ya, thanks for the tips Fitz.

    most important "must-have" is a pullup rope... SUCKS cradling your bow on your thighs going up and down a tree if you forget it. :(
