RE: Getting in my own way......
Better to do those things early in the season.......less apt to forget them later on, at least thats my theory.
It really makes me feel like a dope if I forget to tie or clip on my haul line using my climber. Nothing I hate more than having to climb back down for something.[:@]

RE: Getting in my own way......
I was going to hunt this evening after work. Well while at work we had some trouble with a piece of equipment leaking diesel. While I was only there to secure the jobsite until the shop mechanic fixed the line(leaking fitting) it was in an awkward spot so I was giving him a hand. Once we got the line off I proceeded to dump the residual out of the line onto my pants leg and boot. While I do have a change in the truck the smell of diesel doesn't really wash out real well so it looks like I will wait until Saturday to blunder around the woods some more. Se la vi.

RE: Getting in my own way......
I'm gonna say I forget "something" about every 5th hunt. So far, this year, I've forgotten my binos, TWICE.....my haul line, TWICE.....My gloves and facemask, ONCE.......A bow hook, ONCE.

RE: Getting in my own way......
I forget alot of things....it seems to increase as I get older.
One thing I did do, I placed a hook in my backpack. It's there so I can attach it to my haul rope to retrieve things from the stand. [&:]
