New hunting gear
What are folks planning to purchase for your upcoming hunts. Gun, bow, crossbow, clothing, ATV, tree stand, etc. Myself, I have accumulated all I need over the years, to my wifes dismay, so I am good (for now!) how about you?

will already added a 28g for upland so far pretty happy with that, also added a dog tracker don't know how I feel about it yet as although for distance seems great at letting you know what the dog is doing however up close doesn't give you the exact location as the beep does so currently running both on the dog.

I’m at the age where I have to think about buying new stuff. Actually, I think I have what I need. In fact I recently bought a new Buck knife that I didn’t need. It sure is pretty though.

I am always selling off old stuff and replacing it with new stuff.
I started with a vertical compound and hunted with it for about 5 years, next purchase was 50# steel climber that was assembled in the field with wing nuts (not fun dropping bits in the snow) which quickly got replaced with a sumit, the vertical bow got damaged and was replaced with an excalibur x-bow which has been upgraded a few times over the years.
This year my big switch was to heavier broadheads with better penetration qualities, after watching a few deer run away with my arrow stuck in their shoulder I have traded some trajectory for momentum.

I just bought 3 more cameras for observing the property I hunt, both for wildlife and to double up on some other cameras that have gone missing.
I'm starting to "need" less in the last couple of years since I'm prepared to hunt any quarry in almost any weather with what I own now.

A cordless DeWalt chainsaw is nice for clearing shooting lanes.
Thought about upgrading my CVA Wolf Muzzleloader to the Optima V2 but last minute decided the Wolf was fine. I had what I thought was a chip shot on a doe last day of ML season last year and completely missed. Of course it was the guns fault right?
Some new wools socks and baselayer and I'm good to go for the season now.
