Food for the hunter

[Dietrich]

When you are going to take to the woods or the duck blind for the entire day,what kind of food do you carry with you? Being a typical southern boy the menu generally consists of a sandwich,a can of vienna sausages or potted meat,hoop cheese,crackers,a piece of fruit and maybe some cookies.How about the rest of you?

What is hoop cheese?

I am seldom hunting long enough to need food, but on my mountain biking trips it is Granola and water. Quick energy depending on the granola mix along with the sustained carbs....

Some Sklenarik's West Texas Beef Jerky, some Saugany Smoke House Jalapeno Beef Sticks, a canteen of water.

Two powerbars and two canteens - one with coconut water (better than gatorade for replacing electrolytes) and one for adding a pack of Starbucks Via powder coffee.

gas grill, two 16 ounce porter house steaks, some good drink, and very little hunting...

Usually power bars or granola bars, easy to pack around. Oh and Canteens? Who carries a canteen anymore, havent you guys heard of camelbaks, or just plain old water bottles?

If you need a hunting buddy, I'm your man!

One of the things I miss most since becoming a professional derelict is hunting. I really didn't care to kill anything but loved walking around in the woods. Just didn't see the use of walking around the woods without a purpose. Hunting was the purpose. Many fond memories. I did manage to slay a mountain goat with my bow and arrow. Truly the highlight of my hunting escapades bar none.
As far as food, I always traveled light, usually a chocolate bar, granola, usually counted on finding a creek many times without success but in washington there almost always a wet spot someplace.
I think Mr. Jocko definitely has the correct setup for hunt sustenance.

At the risk of displaying my ignorance I'm curious what hoop cheese is as well. I think I had some of them sustained carbs on an old mustang I had in High School, I switched to two 2 barrel Webers. Worked very well. Wish I still had that car, worth a shiney penny now days.

Lord have mercy.hoop cheese is the cheese that is sold in old time general stores.It comes in a large round hoop and the grocer cuts off a wedge of it,weighs it and wraps it in butcher`s paper.It smells to high heaven [hence the saying "Who cut the cheese? ] and is as delicious as it is odiferous.{Odiferious means smelly Bawanna.]

Now now Getsome,be Christian. Not everyone can be from the motherland and we have to be gracious to these alien immigrants who may or may not be legal.

I hear ya. I was drug against my will to the NW shortly after the war. My grandmothers front porch in Missouri had parallel finger nail drag marks accross it. One set when the Marines drafted my daddy, and the second, mine, not quite so deep since I was a wee lad, when they drug me out here. I tried without success to get back on a return ticket on the underground railroad. While I still have lots 100's of relatives there, some I havent even met yet I fear it's too late to return to my roots. Talking with people with normal twangs in their voice and the confederate flag in my back window I fear are all I have left. I think we called the cheese pinwheel but not sure why I think that. From this day forward I will acknowlege Hoop Cheese as the proper description. May use it to throw off some of my damn yankee neighbors.

Hey deadhead1971, Those gummi snakes look like they would make good bait for bass fishing....I see you're from Clayton NC (Gods Country)...We have a cabin in Hawassee Ga. right down the road from ya...We go to Clayton to buy beer on Sunday since Georgia thinks buying beer from a 7-11 on sunday is a sin but you can drive to a bar and drink all you want, get plastered and then try to drive home...Go figure that one out....The only thing better is at the Redneck Riviera (Panama City Fl.) where they have those drive through frozen diaquiri stands.......
