X-Mas List

cheeseheadinOHIO · Nov 24, 2007

For once, I'm trying to create a X-mas list so my wife gets me something I really want and not something I don't need, like last year's electric tape measure... Never used it yet.
What do you have for hunting that you REALLY like? List it and why it's so useful to you. So far all I have on my list is a gun holder for cleaning and a Nikon retractable tether for my range finder. Ideas wanted.... Hope you all had a good Thanksgiving.

How about a nice sharpening steel, they are great when your knife gets dull while boning out a animal, or cutting shooting lanes with a cutter of some kind.

Good rain gear...

Under Armor cold gear..

Water filter...

You mentioned a gun holder but how about a 1 piece cleaning rod?? those jointed rods can scratch the rifling in the barrel..

I recentely purchased the Cabela's Wooltimate hunting jacket/coat. I love it! Now I want the pants, or something similiar with the wind shear in it. I didn't think I would be able to tell the difference, but boy was I wrong.

So #1 on my list:
Windshear, wool pants

Jetboil camp stove, -15 degree sleeping bag, sleeping pad, Sitka Gear lightweight hunting clothing, camo seat covers for the truck, Leupold RX-2 range finder with angle compensator in it, GPS......I could go on forever. fatrooster.

fatrooster, save yourself the return shipping and don't get the leupold RX-II. I got the RX-III last year and wouldn't range anything beyond 300 yards and it had the be white to do that. Sent it back and got the Leica 1200. Will never get another rangefinder again. My Christmas present was already purchased.......dall sheep here I come.

Get socks! I know it sounds boring but thats what I would ask for. I bought cheap socks at Walmart and never knew what I was
missing:

Spend $10-$15 a pair at Cabelas. Best money I ever spent.

I would also ask for a pair of Meindl Perfekt Hunters from Cabelas:

Mystery Ranch with Crew Cab!!!!! I think I'm getting a new pair of socks though!!! Too bad X-mas is right after or in some cases during hunting season..... When I ask for something for x-mas the usuall response is....Well you just got home from Colorado!!!! How much did that cost???? AAAAAHAHHHHHH

ClorideRUS · Nov 24, 2007

Dude, get a nice trail cam or two! Gives you something to do in the off season.

Second vote for good socks.

Second vote for water filter. With the hot falls anymore, you sometimes can not carry enough water. Get a filter and some powdered gatoraid.

Bino harness.

New spotting scope.

Reloading components and or equipment.

Gun Cleaing kit or supplys.

Compass.

Trioxane tablets.

I picked up my Christmas present today. A new welder for the garage. And I never knew there was an X in Christmas.

cheeseheadinOHIO · Nov 26, 2007

I am real tired in this day and age of having to always worry about offending people. If you didn't like me using X-mas, don't post on the thread. There was no intent by it other than shortening the title. Oh, and it's really not "Christmas" either. Technically in the politically correct terms, it's the Holiday Season. So, now what would you like on your Holiday list? Is this a hunting site or a religious one? Merry Holiday!!

There are a lot of UTARDS that live here.
I have also seen quite a few WYOMORONS, NEVADUHNS, COLORADORKS, ID-IOTS and AIRHEADZONANS in my travels.

No, its not. It has been and will always be CHRISTmas, no matter how far our society degenerates.
