Plan ahead. Again.

Hello again... rifle deer season taught me some valuable lessons in our field ethics. To avoid a very long and painful story, let's get back to basics. We know that rifle deer season will happen in late November / early December so ther is no reason to wait until the last minute to gather things and prepare for the event... I neglected to take a spare flashlight and a rangefinder on the trip and needed both. More painful details to follow.

Lesson: Always range the quarry, always have a spare (premium quality) flashlight on your person. Always.
