2 box calls with chalk
2 slate calls
2 strikers for the slates
gloves
face mask
2 crow calls
3 or 4 mouth calls (mostly primos since that works best for me)
owl hooter
knife
my empty shell that I killed my biggest gobbler with (corny...yes I know)
push-button call
gobbler shaker
water
decoys with stakes
binoculars

and Heavy duty scissor-things. I forget exactly what they are called but they are made by gerber and I use them to cut small branches that may be in my way when I am setting up on a tree. Really helps to get the small twigs and branches out of my way in case I need to shoot.

I didn't carry much last year but I have a feeling this year may be a little different. I bought one of those Max Tat'r turkey vests and this thing has pockets, flaps, straps, leg pouchesand zippers everywhere! I have a feeling I'll be a little heavier in the turkey woods this year.

2 head nets, one with eye holes and the other without for bug season.
2 pair of camo gloves
1 box call
1 slate call
1 crystal call
2 slate strikers (one for wet weather)
3 mouth calls
1 crow call
1 coyote call
chalk
sandpaper
scruff pad for slate
string for tag
3 decoys
hand nipper for cutting brush
six 3 1/2 Federal #5 shotgun shells with flight control

My vest is a buck lick creek equipped with a self supporting padded seat. I can sit and lean back against the seat even if I am not against a tree. It just folds up along my back when not in use.

Jesus Christ!!! How the hell can you sit down and get up with all that S!@#... I take it you don't have to walk very far to your turkey hunting spots
