What's in your pack

The things I have put in and over time taken out would fill two packs, and I really should have two packs - one for quick light hunts and one for the longer days. The number of rounds vary for many. I normally carry 6 or 7 depending on which rifle I am using at any given time.
One of the best tags is a flashing "turtle" bike light - it can be seen from some distance when you have to go back at night.
Lots of great ideas. If I had a camera, I would have had photos of my "Two five points in under a minute".
It is probably a good time to start working on next year's plans. Better yet, I will use many of your ideas and save to a Word.doc.
