Wow, another deer season is upon us. Many of us have deer hunting trips planned. We think we've though of everything, but have you really?

Recently I was cleaning out my Garage and going through some of my deer hunting gear. I have to admit, most of that gear I've had for years. It's reliable (for the most part) and I know it like the back of my hand.

I was in for a few surprises though. I have an old set of Ranging 5x32 binoculars that are starting to show their age (15 years plus). Time for a new set. One of my favorite hats has a hole in the top. I have no idea how it happened, I'm going to blame it on the Wife.

Replace you old maps. Things change. Opening morning is not the time to find out the Forest Service has put a road in 50 yards from your deer stand (I'm guilty of that one)

Take the time to site your rifle in. Yep, I'm guilty of that one also. Last year, I was too busy to make it to the range before season. I left out the day before the opener in Oklahoma and arrived about 10 p.m. I passed a buck up on opening morning and decided I'd "just check" the zero of my rifle. I was shocked to find it was almost 6 inches low. I'm blaming that on my Wife also, I'm sure she did something to it.

Check you binoculars and scopes. Make sure they're bright and clear and that the adjustment knob is free and works easy.

If you're hunting out of state, get your license and tags as early as you can. Don't show up opening morning and find that the little grocery store on the corner doesn't carry hunting license and tags any longer. Most states are set up to where you can buy license online now. Get them
