Being physically limited and slower, it takes me forever just to get prepared for a hunt. In the years in the past, I did not have the modern items for comfort that are demanded and required for today. There is a trade off, more items means more weight and takes more time to setup thus requiring greater effort...... If anyone has ever hunted Black Warrior, you have to get up real early, travel, walk in (always a hour or more), and setup which takes a great deal of time just to start the hunt, not for the faint hearted, and not for those who require to see a deer. Most of us carry a light climber (Vipers are popular) with different items, always considering the weight, I have too......What things have you learned to make your hunt last longer and more enjoyable while cutting down on your preparing time, weight and effort? What are the "must have" items? Your setup? Modifications? Your ritual?...... Looking for great ideals to be shared.
