2 trucks to carry the gear in, four to carry the animals out. 
I've started to wash four days of clothes and separate each day in four  garbage sacks, to minimize scent crossover.  I started to read that list...thot wow this guys is way over the top.... hey thats a good idea... hey thats right I need two of those... Printing up list now.  i also have everything in multiple tupperware bins (big ones from Home depot) blue tape lable freshwater fishing, elk cold weather gear, elk warm weather, campsite cooking, hunt supplies, bedding etc.  easy to pack/store ahead of time, easy to grab and go.
Hunting, Basketball, Cars.... not much more for me to talk about.

Has anyone ever put a $$ figure on their must have's. Bet it would be interesting. I was trying to do numbers in my head looking at this list, but math is not my strong suit (good thing).
Probably something you don't want the spouse to see.  ;)

Um yeah. Question why all the spare bow parts if you have two setup bows? And hate to burst anyones bubble but scent (lok, blocker, etc.) don't work! Proven in a court of law.

I tell my wife the "camping gear" is emergency preparedness stuff. we need to check it out occasionally, but if some catastrophe were to happen we could haul out and pack it to the mountains....   "its all in the Spin baby..."
Hunting, Basketball, Cars.... not much more for me to talk about.

I didn't see it mentioned, but, buy yourself a 20 or 30 piece moist towels, which can be found in travel size packs. You get one down, guttin' and skinning, quartering, man, I've got blood up to my shoulders. The blood dries, you get more blood on top of that, drives me nuts! :bash: Just keep a package in your day pack, keep your knife clean, your hands stay cleaner. Makes the job easier. Bull

I need to look my list over again. I think I may have forgotten some items.
