Backups for Trad hunting

[GCTerpfan]

I carry an extra tab in my pack in case I drop it from the stand. I've never carried an extra sting or stringer unless it was a weekend hunt somewhere not close to my house. The likelihood of breaking a string on stand is pretty slim but, I guess if I ever do break a string in the field, whatever deer would have walked by me that day will live another day.

Spare pod.

You can shoot pods where you are? I didnt realize that was legal anywhere anymore.

Wow…… crazy. Pods. Haven’t heard of people using them since Fred bear.

If it's not just a hunt then come home after, I bring my arrow case to leave in the truck. In it, I have glue for feathers and points if I need a repair, practice points, broadheads, string wax, extra tab, serving, extra string, stringer, and few ready to go arrows. Long trip I'll have an extra bow also.
Backups while in the field, I just have an extra tab in my pack. All my arrows have a sharpie mark for my brace height. Strings stretch especially after getting wet.
Oh and along with the extra arrows, I always keep a bareshaft to check for tune if I suspect something.

Along with my normal arrows I always carry a arrow with a blunt tip or a judo type point for those pesky squirrels and also I like to take practice shots from time to time if I am on a long hunt or if I don't get a shot at a deer or whatever I am after just to not waste a chance up the tree maybe silly but it makes me feel better!!!

A judo arrow is mandatory for me.

I was going to send you a care package of spare's. Havent had any of the dope for them since back in the early 90's but still have a 6-8 pods stashed away somewhere. Carried one arrow loaded up for a few seasons in case I "needed" to take a long marginal shot. Never shot one at an animal so stopped keeping one in the quiver.
