Not sure if I quite fit the bill for this thread but I've working on a plan for this fall and winter. It serves no purpose other than it tickles my particular autism. I want to complete my entire hunting and ice fishing season in a full greatest generation/boomer post-war LARP, not even joking. So far I've aquired a fishing pole with Diawa reel from the 70s, I have a bunch of denim, flannel, wool clothes and a classic leather hiking boot from L. L. Bean and I even thrifted an external frame pack but I think it's from the 80s. I got a .30-30 for deer and black bear, my grandfather's actual single shot 12g from the 60s for pheasant and rabbits. I don't have a classic .22 yet and I can't use the shotgun for ducks because old single shots with fixed chokes don't agree with modern steel shot. I've aquired time period appropriate books on tracking, fishing and taxidermy to give more authenticity (pic rel), where I'm struggling is on bringing a smart phone with me in the field. On one hand I want the genuine experience but on the other should an emergency arise I'd like some added security.
Gonna get a good trucker hat somewhere soon and probably a case of Coors banquet to celebrate any successful hunts or fishing trips. Thoughts, opinions or tips on this concept in general?
