What have you lost while predator hunting?
« on: December 04, 2012, 02:46:31 PM »
Thought this might be an interesting topic.  So far this year I lost a pair of binoculars that the landowner found and returned, left my Carver Howler in a field but went back and found, and a friend left his foxpro in a field but we went back and found it and he shot a fox!  Guess that was a good thing for him to forget in the field that night.

One year lost a layard full of moth calls that I never did find. A year later I was using a giz and grey seen eyes coming put the call down and never seen that call ever again. This year I lost a mo jo decoy. Went back to that field where I last used it never did find it.  :(

I forgot to zip my pack up once and lost 5 of those 18650 batteries. Went back the next day and retraced my tracks in the snow and found 4 of the five!

The only thing I lost is brass. A couple times I couldn't find my shell after quickly chambering a live round after a shot. Thats just a little thing...I guess I am lucky so far. This year I haven't had the chance to lose anything since I haven't been getting out at all.

Other than my patience and sanity the only thing I've lost is a hand call here and there

Like you said, I left the foxpro behind once, but it led to a kill! Then there's that brand new scan light that fell out of my pocket. This could be an expensive year!

Shoot...I lost a glove last night on an all night hunt.  Really loved it and never saw one like it ... leather hand and warm cammo backing.  :0  Not to useful with one glove...guess I should have lost em both so the finder could have a complete set.   ;D

My buddy and I just got into predator hunting this year. I baught a Wild fire caller and we were using it for the first time about three weeks ago. When we moved to a new set we discovered that my buddy had left the caller on the tail gate of my truck and never put it up!!!!!!  Luckily we retraced our tracks and found it at a back road intersection just as a snow plow had made its first pass. We must have used up all our luck for the night on the caller cuz we got skunked.
