The quarter bags. Four to a pack, treated so the meat keeps in Texas heat between the field and the cooler.

The block. Set it down where you want them and it does its job for weeks without a feeder or a battery.

The brain of a spin feeder. Six throws a day on whatever schedule the deer are keeping.

2-Burner Tabletop Propane Stove, 10,000 BTU
The camp stove. Backstrap at the tailgate, coffee before light, and the lid keeps the Hill Country wind off the flame.

Where the rifles live between seasons. Built by Browning, badged Field & Stream, and it holds the whole shelf.

$58.98
Skull Hooker
Little Hooker European Mount Hanger, Graphite Black
The wall version. One screw into a stud, the skull onto the prong, and the whole rack is up in five minutes without a plaque.

For field dressing and the processing table. Thick enough to take a gutting without tearing, thin enough to still feel the knife.

A sharpener made to live in the pack. 2.6 ounces, more than one angle, and a broadhead wrench built in.
$40

The big chest for less than a sixth of the Tundra. 120 quarts, ice for up to six days, and a lid you can sit on.
