Jack Daniels and pepsi. The thing is that my brother and I celebrate coming back to camp evey night not just after a successful hunt.

Red bull before the pack and coors light after.

I second that combo. Maybe a sip of Makers Mark afterwards, if available.

 

[Tufrthnails]

Maker's Mark or Woodford Reserve. But I'm not packing elk quarter's out. I dragging whitetail or Hogs.

I think I heard your kidneys scream again when you wrote that. Maybe that was the full days dosage?


(As in 800 mg taken every 6 hours with full hydration)

800 is max single dose, 3200 max per day according to the cardiologist I was talking to.

 

[HSi-ESi]

Cold or slushy coffee from the remnants of what I didn't drink in the morning (if just day hunting).

Any cold beer is good as well, but I have trouble planning far enough ahead for a pack-out beer at the truck for it to be consistent. Always have some coffee left over though.

No tonic, but not too far from leaving the trailhead road, there's a tiny hole in the wall restaurant that has the best cheeseburger on earth. Actually, it's probably a normal cheeseburger, but at that present moment it's the best on the planet! That, and like said above. ..lots of ibuprofen!!

 

[nuevo_eph]

Hmm, Ice cold bud light Chelada or some other salty red beer. Adult gatorade is in order!

Horse tranquilizers & moonshine.

Keeps you young.

Evan Williams Honey Reserve and Arnold Palmer half and half. Refreshing and celebratory.

 

[Blacktailbc]

Multiple IPAs are a near-instant cure for muscle soreness. Colorado and Washington offer inhalable celebratory herbal tonics.

Nice knife nameless.......can you tell us about it?

 

[Wild Bill]

Blackberry brandy or peppermint schnapps 200 mL kept in the pack for a pull after walking up to the animal, and whiskey for back at camp, preferably bourbon or rye.

 

[Tradewind]

a shot of gentleman jack or crown once I arrive at the truck on the last trip of the day followed by 600 mg ibprophin with dinner

 

[sneakypete]

Jameson after a good hunt. Although been drinking Jameson mules too!

It is a Bark River knife my dad gave me around 2003. I am admittedly ignorant when it comes to knives. I don't know the model of this one but it looks very similar to their current Bushcrafter model, so maybe it is the 10+ year old version of that . It's a good all-around knife. It has a chip in the blade from where I kicked it off a large Boulder accidentally, and the finish on the handle is all f'd up because a well-meaning spouse put it in the dishwasher. It's got character, has cut into pretty much all the critters I have killed in the last decade, and holds an edge.

 

[noharleyyet]

Looks like the Fox River Series Nameless....like the character.

 

[hank4elk]

Water & my coffee.

Gin and lemonade has been the beverage of choice in elk camp for the last 35 years.
