wyliefoxEsquire Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Besides water, what do you eat/drink during a match?
Hogleg Hunter Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 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
Dogmeat Dad, SASS #48563L Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 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.
Chili Pepper Kid, SASS #60463 Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 After the 3rd stage I have a Salted nut roll and a diet Dr. Pepper. Plus carry some beef jerky. https://pearsonscandy.com/salted-nut-roll/
Bison Bud Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 I try not to eat when shooting, at least until I can wash my hands.
Texas Joker Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Bring pogey bait to your liking. Hydrate. If you get peckish eat. If you get thirsty you are not drinking enough.
Rye Miles #13621 Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 I pack a lunch, turkey sandwich and a fruit of some kind and lots of water.
Dantankerous Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Water or gatorade, depending on heat/humidity. Mixed nuts and jerky for protein, granola/breakfast/energy bars for carbs and energy.
Yul Lose Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Tea Java iced tea, dried apricots, almonds, Kind bars.
Gateway Kid SASS# 70038 Life Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Water/Gatorade depending on temperature. Three Glucerna (1 after stage 1-3-5). Trail mix or a granola bar. Sometimes sliced apples. Regards Gateway Kid
Hoss Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 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, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 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. Drink lots of water. I also carry a granola bar or three, just in case.
TN Mongo, SASS #61450 Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Count me in for Powerade or Gatorade. It really helps during hot summer shoots here in the South.
Go West Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 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.
Uncle Ethan # 94321 Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 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.
Black Hills Barb Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 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.
Cat Brules Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 I do not drink or eat during the match, itself. Cat Brules
Goody, SASS #26190 Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 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.
G W Wade Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Do not eat during a match. Do take electrolyte tablets ( Salt Sticks) to keep hydrated. GW
Tully Mars Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 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. Tully
The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Water, coffee, Propel, nutri-grain bars. OLG
Rafe Conager SASS #56958 Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Coffee, coke, water, I pound a poweraid or Gatorade right after shooting if I get hungry I have jerky or a granola bar. I eat a good breakfast and can usually wait till after shooting for lunch. Rafe
Sarge Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 I try not to eat, but if I do need something, I keep a couple of Quest protein bars in my gun cart.
Pat Riot Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 I like to bring a banana and a Clif Bar or two. If I don't eat I get shaky. I also drink plenty of water. Sometimes I will drink a Gatorade if it's really hot.
Phantom, SASS #54973 Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Energy Drink early morning to calm me... Choke down a protein bar... Then a sip or two of water before going to the loading table...chew on nails here and there... Phantom
