    Re: How important is a good camp and regular meals to you?

    the importance varies depending on what type of hunt. I always want comfort but that varies from moss laden ground with a tarp over it and my sleeping bag to a 3 man tent for one, to the back of my truck with a canopy to a 8.5 ft camper to my 14x16 Deluxe wall tent. Meals vary from par froze precooked cold chicken and packets of oatmeal to Mountain house to organs from an animal over a fire in a pot of water to prime rib and porkchops and deer ribs on an open fire. For the conditions and type of hunt they all are as good tasting as I can make them and the sleeping is as comfy as it can be given the situation
    Their steaks, roasts and burger to me! Tom

    I love my groceries but hate crappy food. From sleeping leaning against a tree to our wall tent, we always have quality food to keep us going. Nothing better than a good meal around the fire after a long grueling day.

    lengthy time. I've never hunted with more than 5 people, usually by myself or with one
    other person. Until my wife began coming with me during the latter years, a comfortable
    camp or taking the time for designated meals just wasn't of importance to me unless done
    either before or after legal hunting times. Many times rather then set up a camp, I would
    either sleep in or under my truck and eat out of a cooler. Of course there also were many
    times I would set up a tent or lean-to after dark in pre-scouted locations, and then prepare
    proper meals over the campfire..
    ..but never the fancy camps I've seen others build.
    What about you?



    There is never more than 4 of us. There is no regular time for meals. We eat when hungry in general.
    I don't eat breakfast(except for coffee & VitC) so take along some fruit &/or dried apricots,prunes & peanuts when hunting. We all try to get back around mid day & prepare meals as shown in the photo.

    Took the words right outta my mouth, done many trips with that same menu! Sometimes when I'm feeling fancy I'll include a bucket of KFC. K
