[QUOTE="Hangfire, post: 3297255, member: 27673"] I had my hunter orange vest custom made (plain orange one one side and camo orange on the other) super large to fit comfortably with room to spare over insulated coveralls and whatever else I was wearing under them. When I had it made I had them sew two huge / jumbo breast pockets and two the same size lower pockets below them on the outside of both orange patterns......so I ended up with four, counting inside and out, giant pockets to store things in while out hunting plus I wore a small fanny pack. My hunting buddy and I would part ways at camp and head different directions and we both hunted within 2 or 3 miles max of camp and he'd always tease me about carrying so much stuff for being as close to camp as we were. I'd always carry; 1. a canteen of water. 2. drag rope which also doubled as a rope to pull my rifle up in my stand. 3. waterproof matches, a Bic lighter and two 35mm film canisters filled with lint out of the clothes dryer. 3. toilet paper. 4. disposable gloves. 5. plastic bag for the liver and heart. 6. a couple of cheap new dish rags for hand drying. 7. extra folding orange handle Buck knife besides the one always on my belt. 8. space blanket. 9. a busted compass (don't ask :)). 10. snacks which were normally store bought peanut butter & crackers and a candy bar or two. 11. a what looked to be paper thin emergency plastic poncho which came folded up small like my space blanket. 12. two each of three different sizes of Band Aids, small tube of first aid ointment and a large wound dressing. 13. mini mag flashlight with two fresh extra batteries. 14. partial roll of yellow flagging. 15. rifle and two muzzle loader speed loaders and a few extra caps or five extra rounds of ammo. 16. squeeze bottle of commercial made wind direction dust. 17. deer bleat call. 18. pump bottle of 'fresh earth' scented odor masker that I'd use after I sat down. 19. extra wadded up orange cap in case I sweated through the one I had on. 20. small binoculars.
