For archery elk, I have forgot shorts for around camp a few times but nothing a knife can't take care of using my old camp pants.
Heck, isn't that how we "used" to make shorts/cut offs anyway? :chuckle:

A few years back, I was several days into my hunt when I realized I’d forgotten to swap out the arrows in my quiver for the ones in my arrow case....the ones with broadheads on them!ive done this too. Grabbed the wrong arrow box.

I also forgot my boots one year on a late season hunt. Trudged around in my slip on merrells all day in soaked cold feet. Fortunately that one was only a day hunt.

But I like to keep backups for major items at the trailhead in my truck. Spare water filter, spare jetboil, spare batteries, spare arrows/bullets, spare food, etc. So that has helped me reduce my over-packing habit in recent years. And thankfully Oregon went paperless for tags/license, so the multiple years I forgot to bring my tags with me from WA are no more (and now I'm an OR resident, so it's moot anyway).

For me, it's pretty much the case that I forget I don't have to bring everything I own on every hunting trip.
:yeah:
I take too much, then try to figure out how to keep the stuff I brought from getting stolen from camp as I don't use it

In our camp we have a guy with about a 24" inseam, so we call them "shants".

back to house and try again.
Once forgot my license going out for an evening hunt.

Forgetting my headlamp was one and not bringing an Allen key for my turret was another. The turret free spooled during an adjustment in the field and I had no idea at what yardage. That ruined my day and all it needed was just to be checked and snugged up before the trip.
So frustrating!
