Some hunting gear turns out to be just crap and some stands the test of time. What is your old or oldest piece of hunting gear you still routinely carry and use?

With the exception of guns/bow - I have an OD sleep shirt (pullover - low temp) that I got in 85 while in the military. I wear it on cooler days with Under Armour underneath.

Plain Jane Remington Sportsman 78 in 3006, only gun I've shot a deer with in a long, long time. I know what happens when I put the crosshairs on one.

I’ve got a day pack I bought in 97-98. Saddle cloth. It looks brand new. It goes fishing, hunting, even on vacation. It’s been to Costa Rica and I once packed everything I needed for a 4-day trip to NYC in it. My wife said “you can’t get all your stuff in that.” I said “you hide and watch.”

You didn't say deer hunting. My squirrel gun is a Winchester 74 bought by my granddaddy in 1956. He gave it to me when I was 9 so in 71. It was in such bad shape he didn't think it would ever shoot again. I cleaned it up and re-blued it and it is a squirrel killer. Several other critters too that needed killin. Did a good job on coons when I got the chance to go on those hunts. It will shoot .22 shorts or LR and feed both even mixed in the tube. Likely only thing I own that I consider not replaceable. If only for sentimental reasons.

Does a 1954 Model 70 Featherweight count? Other than that, I’ve got a Böker skinning blade that’s at least 25-30yrs old.

I’ve had the same sling since I killed my first turkey, and it was old when my father gave it to me. I hunt with 3-4 different shotguns a season, but I usually swap that old sling between them
