Spending
time outdoors can provide a lot of health benefits. When you go camping and
hunting, your mental and physical health will improve, and your stress levels
will decrease. Camping and hunting can also be a great avenue for you to meet
new people, and bond with your friends and family. But for you to enjoy all of
these things, you need to be prepared for the trip. You should bring all of the
necessary equipment and tools for you to live comfortably outdoors.
Being unprepared isn’t only stressful; it can become the reason why your safety will be compromised. To ensure that any of these don’t happen, prepare properly by using resource sites like Outdoorcommand as your guide and by bringing the following:
1. Your Prized
Hunting Gear
The gear you bring can influence the success of your hunt. Regardless if you’re an amateur or an experienced hunter, if you brought all of the essential gear with you, it will be a safer, more comfortable and rewarding adventure.
Make sure that all of the hunting gear listed below are loaded in your backpack before heading out:
2. First Aid
Kit
Regardless of how prepared you are to go camping and hunting, surprises can still happen. Even if you have stayed in the area countless times before, you can still have accidents as well as the usual discomfort from blisters, burns, cuts, twisted ankles and of course, depending on the time of year, insects. It’s hard to enjoy your outdoor experience if you’re suffering from pain. Your first aid kit should always include antibacterial creams, band-aids, a pair of scissors, and a hand sanitizer. Make sure that you bring enough items to make yourself comfortable and safe throughout the entire duration of the trip.
3. Camping Tent And Stakes
When roughing it in the outdoors you’ll need a tent. This is where you’ll sleep and keep all of your valuables whenever you go for a hunt. Ensure your tent is large enough, comfortable, waterproof and able to withstand high winds.
If this is your first time camping, take the time to set up a tent in your back yard first. Carefully read the manual, especially if you don’t have any idea on how to put up the tent. You can practice as often as you want until you familiarize yourself with the entire process. The goal is to set up the tent on your own, so you won’t have any problems when you’re on the actual campsite.
Since a tent requires other things for its assembly (tent footprint, stakes, and poles), make sure to check all of these before leaving. If you’re going to camp during the windy season, bring extra stakes to keep your tent sturdy and attached to the ground.
4. Food And
Water
These are some of the most essential items to bring as they can boost your energy and keep you hydrated. Determining the amount of water to bring usually depends on how long are you going to stay outdoors and what kind of activity will be you be doing. If you’re going to hunt in a location far from your campsite, you might need to bring more water. Taking water purification tablets is also a wise choice.
When it comes to food, camping snacks such as energy bars, fruits and trail mixes should always be in your list. For your main meals, there are now recipes that are easy to prepare and don’t require too many ingredients. Some of the meals you can make while camping are banana bread pancakes, grilled chorizo kebabs, and sweet potato bean burger, to name just a few.
The Location Counts
Aside from knowing what items to bring for your next camping and hunting trip, carefully choose your location as well. It should be a safe place for campers and hunters. If possible, research the location you’re eyeing to visit so you’ll know what to expect and what items are necessary for the location.

https://www.fieldandstream.com/three-things-to-look-for-when-buying-leaf-mulcher/
Mulching in plants and flower beds keeps weeds down while holding moisture in so you don’t need to water as much. Even when you buy it in bulk, mulch can be expensive. That’s why owning a leaf mulcher can make a lot of sense, especially for those who end up with a lot of fallen leaves. With a mulcher, you don’t need to send leaves and grass clippings to the landfill. Instead, you can grind them into ready-to-use mulch that will put vital nutrients back into your soil and you’ll save on watering, too.
Three Types To Choose From
Leaf mulchers come in three varieties.
Electric mulchers plug into a power source. They’re relatively quiet and you’ll never have to buy gas for them, but you’ll be limited by the length of your extension cord as to how far into the yard you may to be able to use it.
Combination models actually double as leaf blowers, but by flipping a switch you can vacuum up leaves and they’ll be ground into mulch that flows into an attachable bag. The nice part about these is that they are multi-functional and lightweight (many can be controlled with one hand).
Gas-powered models are heavier, so they’re not as portable. They’re also generally noisier and they produce fumes. However, they are far more powerful. Many of the smaller gas mulchers will also handle small branches up to 1 ½ inches or so, which is a great help when you’re trying to get the fall clean-up done in the yard.
Plastic Or Metal Blades
The “impeller” is the part of the leaf mulcher that actually grinds the leaves. Models come with either plastic blades or metal blades. Plastic blades will work and models containing them are generally less expensive. Metal blades tend to be more durable and are particularly important to look for if the mulcher you’re considering is also advertised to be able to grind up small branches.
Space, Weight and Access
Think about where you want to store your leaf mulcher when it’s not in use. Most models are relatively compact, but some of the gas models will need more space. Weight is another consideration. Many of the combination models are light enough to operate with one hand while gas-powered models will definitely be heavier. Most have wheels for easy hauling around the yard, but it’s one more factor that you should weigh carefully. While dry leaves are usually easy to mulch, green or wet leaves will inevitably lead to mulchers getting clogged. Always unplug or power down your mulcher before trying to clear clogs, but having a mulcher that provides easy access to the impeller where leaves are ground up will save time and hassle.

The 2010s will conclude with White Claw Hard Seltzers as the trendy drink of not only Univerity of Alabama Tri-Delts who can’t handle the taste of beer but also among men of legal drinking age. What a bizarre decade. Hand up, I’ve Clawed Up over the summer – on the boat, at the beach, at pool parties. They are refreshing in the heat when beer will drag you down. I don’t buy them, though; they are often left in the… Read More »

https://www.fieldandstream.com/three-things-to-consider-when-buying-grilling-basket/
My kids surprised me with a stainless grilling basket a couple of years ago. As a grilling fanatic (I keep a snow shovel by my backdoor so I can plow my way to the grill all winter), this is one of the handiest grilling accessories I’ve every owned. I use it for everything, from stir-frying vegetables and chicken to grilling delicate fish, like sole, that would ordinarily slip through the grilling racks on my Weber. Simply drop it on the grill, let it heat, and you’re ready to rock and roll. Want to add one of these or a more traditional fold-over grilling basket to your barbecuing tool set? Here’s what to look for.
Stainless or Non-Stick
Life is a series of trade-offs and grilling baskets are no different. Straight, non-coated stainless steel baskets can go right on the hottest flames. You can let them get super-hot and not worry about damaging them. The downside, is that oil and foods will build up on them. I’m used to giving mine a quick scrub with hot water before each use, but that might not work for everyone. Baskets coated with a non-stick surface are much easier to clean, but you need to be careful about how hot they get. Most makers don’t recommend using them in heats above 400 degrees, so you want to be careful not to overheat them.
Basket or Folder Over
I’m a basket guy. I like the higher sides that prevent foods from flying out when I stir fry vegetables or meats on my barbeque. But if you’re headed out camping or for a picnic, a fold-over basket is perfect for grilling up whole fish, burgers, or chicken breasts. They keep your hands well away from the heat, too. Most models are dishwasher safe for easy clean-ups.
Features to Look For
Hole size: Make sure the holes on your grilling basket are small enough that food items won’s slip through. Also look for models using thick enough mesh or steel plates that won’t warp or twist when subjected to high heat.
For fold-over baskets: Check for rough edges or pieces of mesh sticking out that you might catch a finger on. A sturdy latch lock is also a good feature to ensure foods stay locked down in place. Some offer insulated handles that will prevent accidental burns if you pick up a hot basket off the fire.
For Wok-type baskets: Look for models with high sides and deep baskets that will prevent foods from popping out when you’re in full stir-fry mode. Side handles that are also large enough to grip with thick barbeque mitts or leather gloves make transfers easy.

Posted from: http://goodhunt.blogs.theledger.com/26524/florida-deer-hunting-notes-october-2019/
Last weekend was my first in the woods for deer. Months of trail camera photos boosted my excitement. No matter how old I get, it’s tough to sleep the night before the Opener. Over Saturday and Sunday morning, I logged 16 hours in a ground blind and didn’t see crap. Squirrels would bark, and I’d get jittery. I’d toot on the grunt call and eagerly scan the woods for action. Nothing. It’s OK, though. I’ve hunted the same area in… Read More »
