My very first saddle hunt I hooked my Predator platform to molle clip on back of saddle while climbing down. Was in a hurry so just left it there, and hiked a mile back to truck in the dark bushwhacking through forest with no trail. Somewhere along the way the clip broke, and platform was gone. Very little chance to find it... Went back next morning to attempt retracing my steps. Impossible... Wandered around aimlessly in the general area for 3 hours, and actually found it!
I’m also notorious for driving away with stuff sitting loose on the back rack of my atv. My phone, a pack of 8 WE steps, binoculars, truck keys, etc. Drove many miles before noticing, sometimes not until hours later. Found them all! I knew they were on the road/trail somewhere, and luckily no other vehicles had passed and picked them up before I could get back.
Forgot ammo on one rifle elk hunt. Left gun in truck and hunted normally anyway. No shot opportunities that day, so it made no difference, and I still enjoyed the hunt.
