There's a lot of different ways to approach this topic, but my vote goes to GPS. There's something to be said for leaving familiar territory behind, bushwhacking through the woods to take a shortcut, and coming out within feet of where you want to be.

But there's also a lot to be said in terms of firearms, clothing, transportation, etc. Anyone else have an opinion?

Now thats a good question. I would have to agree that GPS is just a wonderful thing; but first you have to know how to use it and second as I found this past season if you are hunting real ugly country deep steep canyons you don't always have a signal. SO I would have to vote for clothing. then if you do get hungout somewhere at least you are warm and dry.

I vote for reliable motorized vehicles. I doubt that there more than a handful of hunters who hunt without using some sort of motorized transport these days.

Just had another thought -- what about the Stanley stainless steel thermos?

Depends on whats in the thermos - kidding LOL

My vote would be on the portable tree stand or the rifle scope.

GPS and 4x4's are tough to beat, but if your an archer, I imagine the compound bow comes up pretty high on the list.
