Hogleg Hunter Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Apple, beef jerky or sticks. It also helps save energy if you can convince your spouse to pull your gun cart. P.S. let me know if that works. Hogleg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogmeat Dad, SASS #48563L Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 I try to alternate water and Gatorade to stay hydrated, although I always start with coffee! For snacks, I like those little child size lunch box plastic cups of peaches and occasionally a snack pack of trail mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 I try to drink a Gatorade in the morning before match starts. Then a bottle of water every stage. I usually have some beef jerky or trail mix about 1/2 thru. in summer months we frequently take a watermelon break after 3 stages. Cold watermelon sure is good and rehydrating!

Chief Rick Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 GU Energy Roctane Ultra Endurance Electrolyte Capsules before and at the halfway point. Maybe another after the match depending on the heat/how I feel.

Go West Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 A good breakfast before and water and/or no or low calorie sports drinks during. I try not to eat during a match because of lead, but a bar or similar I can use the wrapper to hold can be useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Ethan # 94321 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Gatorade, couple of granola bars and a square or two of dark chocolate. When it's hot and humid I started carrying a few pieces of watermelon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Hills Barb Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 When the weather gets hot, I usually have a pack of Gatorade chews handy. They're easier to carry along and great for sharing with those that need the boost. I also have some type of granola bar on hand. Bananas are very popular as well.

Goody, SASS #26190 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 I got to where I drank flavored pedialyte mixed 50/50 with water in the summer months. Seemed to help more with muscle cramps. Also would keep some potassium capsules with me for same reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tully Mars Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 When it's hot out, I'll bring frozen Gatorade or Crystal Lite in a jug with ice. The Gatorade is typically ready to start sipping on by the second stage. Peanut butter and Jelly sandwich as well, maybe some nuts and jerky. We make the PB&J the night before and just through in in the cart.
