I usually pack my bag the night before, and leave a big note on the car passenger seat saying "LUNCH!!!!" so I don't leave without it - I forgot once and that was a hard day. Boot, walking pole, gaiters and spare clothes in the car the night before, in the morning grab daypack, rifle out of the safe (hopefully the same one I have ammo for!).
I also check and recheck the forecast wind direction for the day, most of my regular hunting spots I have a loop I walk, and different entry and exit points, and the wind direction decides which way round I go.
