    Not eating a big breakfast is part of how I "try" to prevent sweating a lot walking into my stand in the mourning. Don't ask me why, but I feel like it helps. I'll take a little extra to eat something as a substitute for breakfast while i'm on stand, cooled off.

    Water couple sandwiches apples and baggy with.raisins and nuts. I'm in the woods before light and come out after dark and would rather bring home some uneaaten food than run out and be hungry. Plus if I run into a problem I've got some food and water to hold me over until help shows up.

    I make any and all sandwiches depends on what's in the fridge,Cliff bars, trail mix, jerkey, string cheese, apples as far as water I have a camel back bladder I add to my pack. I usually don't eat all that much, I got caught mid bite on a sandwich once, good buck was tailing a doe. I didn't kill him, now when I eat I'm all paranoid haha

    I was just going to post I take pb&honey sandwiches. I don't know anybody else that eats them lol. They are a great source of energy. I usually take those, water, and sometimes some jerky or a cliff bar or similar.

    Thanks for all the input. My place at home I usually just walk back home to eat. But on this place it's such a long way back to the camp. I have to drive about 20 minutes in the truck to my portion & unload the wheeler & then it's about 10 minutes from there & I plan on park the wheeler about 500yrds from the bottom I'm hunting in. Just don't want to waste a lot of time going back-n-forth for food.

    I have never sat in a tree all day, not sure if I could do it. Now if I were in a blind where I could kick back and relax a few maybe.

    I try to eat something that's not to alarming scent wise. I'll normally take a pb sandwich, some trail mix, maybe an Apple or a nutrigrain bar and 2 water bottles.

    I too am someone to plan on all day sits. I have seen some action from some big deer doing that in the past and like to make the most out of my trips when I can do them. Usually I bring some pb&j, and then have some type of granola bars, and some trail mix of some sort. Other than that just have some water to drink. Depending on if it is colder or not I will bring a jug-o-coffee.
