Leave week after next for a whitetail hunt in Ohio. The outfitter is telling me to be prepared to sit from sun up to sundown mostly in a ground blinds. What are some of ya'lls ideas to pass the time?

When bowhunting I usually hear a deer before I ever see it.

I am a fan of podcasts, especially ones that get me thinking or keep me engaged. I leave one ear bud out and keep volume low so i can still hear twigs breaking, and generally stay more alert.
What part of Ohio, i'm currently living up here for work and am staying at an Outfitters land in my camper. Working on a deal to do some cull hunting for him if i can get the time off.

I stay put all day a lot of my hunts and carry the following.....I carry a lot of crap... Something on this list will hopefully help you.
Besides the obvious.... Sharp knife, flashlight, range finder, binoculars, camo face mask, etc
- large backpack
- Phone with battery pack/packs
- Food.... Couple of sandwiches/peanut butter crackers/energy bars, etc
- H20/Caffeine drinks (hard to stay awake at times)
- Chew
- wire ties to add brush to stand
- black duct tape/electric tape
- Dollar store trash bags, toilet paper, empty big Gatorade bottles.... for obvious reasons.... Use to get out to go, but, it's cost me on more than one occasion
- extra clothing... Always put on or remove, but, can't if in the truck or at camp
- hand and feet warmers
- extra socks/gloves
- "toboggan" skull cap/full head insulated cover.. If it's cold this is worth it's weight in gold.
- skunk scent/odor control spray
- thermal scope that I use as binoculars before daylight and at dusk
- extra pair of glasses in case mine break or lost.... It's happened to meLast edited by Slicefixer; 10-10-2019, 06:26 AM.
