I have an old orange hat that was left over when we ran some guys off the brother-in-law's farm back in about 1984 or 5. I have worn it every gun season since. I also have a heavy chamois shirt that was my father-in-law's that I got after his death in 1994. The collar and cuffs are getting pretty frayed and the button holes are too big but I wear it shotgun season every year to refresh the memories, then wash and fold it and put it in the drawer till next year. A few years ago my wife almost threw it away. She said why do you wear that shaggy ratty old shirt? I took her into the other room and pointed to the picture of her Dad wearing that shirt while hanging a deer in the barn. Well I gotta tell you that was a mistake! After she at least slowed down on the tears, she asked " but doesn't that make you miss him?" Sure I said, but I'm also so happy to know him and get to visit once a year in the woods. She now folds it and puts it in the drawer for safety until next year when we both get to visit for a while. So nothing superstitious but very sentimental. :way:
