    I am wondering what all you guys carry in your vest. I am starting my 3rd season and wanting some advice on what all y'all carry. I take a box, slate, crow, owl, and 3 diaphragm calls with different cuts. Also in my vest are a pair of limb clippers, bug spray, and knife. Any items that yall feel are needed on a hunt please shed some wisdom. Thanks.

    Probably too much. I have everything that you have, plus a few extra shells, some zip-lock bags, field dressing gloves, camo make-up (in case I don't want to wear a mask). An extra box call for wet conditions, a shaker gobbler call, box call chalk, small flashlight. Face mask, 2 pr gloves. Of course I'll throw a water bottle in it w/ a couple of granola bars at the last minute. I plan on sitting on a small stool this year for my butt's sake, so I'll probably take the vest off and hang it on a branch next to me once I get set up in my spot.

    All of the above, I wear a vest and carry a backpack. Must say all of the stuff I take in along with blind, bow, chair, and usually 3 decoys really makes it a pain in the a** to hunt deep woods birds which it seems necessary in order to hunt with a bow in this state. Every one is running and gunning with a shotgun around here, and if the land isnt posted its considered open...

    with that said probably rethinking what i'll be bringing in this year!
