What is the most critical piece of equipment you guys have forgotten while headed out for a hunt? I actually forgot to put my rifle in the truck with me a couple of years ago and had to turn back to the house. It cost me about 20 minutes of time.

Release. Missed 4 (yes, 4) deer that afternoon shooting with my fingers. I was covered up. One of the best bow hunts I've ever had.
Ya'll are just overthinking it now

Left my release, now I carry a spare in my backpack.

I got all the way down to the NF one morning and realized I didn't have any orange. Luckily there's a gas station about 15 minutes back up Hwy 5 that carries a few hunting items. Yep. Done this one time. We may have hit the same gas station! I forgot to unload a spent shell casing one time and had an 8 pt. 40 yards out. I tried as quietly as I could do eject it but couldn't move stealthily enough. He saw my movement and busted me.

Ammunition. Scrounged around and found two bent rounds in the console and trunk. Killed a doe and a 6 point that morning and was done for the weekend. Could have easily tagged out the next day as well.

I forgot my 4 wheeler one time. Luckily I didn't get far from home when I realized I wasn't pulling the trailer. Also for got my boots one time and hunted in crocks.

When in college at AUM I was living at home in Prattville. My lease was way up hwy 14 north of Wetumpka. I got to the gate and realized I'd left my rifle propped up against the door at home. I used to just leave it on the back floorboard (I drove a Honda Cvic at the time) but it had gotten wet the day before so I took it apart and cleaned it. I got to the gate at 5am and realized what I'd done and just put my head on the steering wheel....
