I like your list. This one item (battery bank) I could justify a few years ago. I can't anymore. Drive out in the morning charging the phone, use it as necessary to find spot, then turn that phone on airplane mode and have lots of juice if necessary. Getting sucked into looking at phone while hunting is an invitation to disaster (see Kenyon/Holyfield). Won't let it enter my realm of possibilities anymore. I encourage more people to DISCONNECT and take in quiet times on-stand void of electronics. Deer hunting quiet time is therapy TO ME and I encourage others to kick electronics to the curb.
My biggest problem is how old my phone is. All the updates for 3 years with no hardware upgrade, plus battery degradation means it burns through battery FAST.
I assume that this will improve when we upgrade phones this year. I expect to be able to drop the battery with the phone upgrade. But, at this point, my phone is somehow burning through 30-40% in airplane mode in my pocket on a few hour long flight...
