Strategy minus products?
OK, so kinda drawing from my other thread concerning strategy vs. products... What could you give up in your products/toys (Not to include release, bow/accessories, or arrows) and still get it done on strategies alone? Please list these products you could give up in order of importance to you.

I could give up them all. Most I don't really use anyways. A treestand and a grunt call would be about the 2 toughest to part with. Everything else I would not blink at.

I'm with Rybo, I could give them all up! I do enjoy hunting from a tree stand, but I will hunt less from a stand this season! I do like having Binos but not a necessity. I will be hunting with a barebow and I'm determined to take my first whitetail with this bow from the ground and no blind!

At this point in my life - I'm down to just bow, treestand and me.
I guess, even if I'm traveling especially "light" - I'll still probably be carrying a bottle of scent killer, a gear rope and my cell phone. I can't hunt without my cell phone. I can really burn up that Verizon "In" network and unlimited TXT messaging.

The list of crap I could do without but still lug in the woods with me is way too long, so I'll just list what I really need.
Bow
Release
Quiver
Treestand (can stay at home sometimes)
Knife
That's it.

A couple of those days this season, might as well have been in a 2-man stand we were so up to date on each others deer sightings. Heck I think half the bucks I wrote down in my log book might have been ones you told me about but I'm not sure

Every year I carry less and less, I am down to a drink, bow hook, stand, and a flashlight, -usually have scent killer, etc in Jeep but quit lugging crap to the woods -
