Hunting lesson you learned the hard way?

Never forget toilet paper.

Being still and quiet is better than camo.

Slow. It. Down.

make sure thermacell works

Bitches ain't shite but hoes and tricks.



You didn't specify what kind of hunting.

When crossing a fence lean your gun up next to the post and not on the barbed wire (or bob wire like they say back there).

enjoy who you hunt with, or don't hunt.

Tie the bottom of your climbing stand to the top.

The drag out is twice as far as the walk in.

A lot about how to dress.

I can remember busting arse through thick swamp on freezing mornings with all my clothes on, stripping them off once we got there because we got hot, then freezing my arse off.

When striking off on a cold day, I try to be cold on the walk in initially as I’ll soon warm up and not overheat.

That and which clothes (cotton vs wool, wearing blue jeans and pajama pants back in the day, etc) would have been good to know.
