headlamp or single aa battery l.e.d. pocket flashlight.......
Solid choices here, ONx hard to argue against.
Beyond that I'll go with my meriwool 100% merino beanie for $22. Wear it all day hunting, out west or in a deer stand, then often wear it in my sleeping bag at night too.

You don't realize how much you appreciate a stove until you don't have one. And building a fire isn't really an option. My other piece of gear is 1/3 of a Zrest pad. It's a butt pad, goes under my sleep pad for protection, and has been used on almost every trip as a meat sling to help keep blood off my pack. A good head lamp is also in the mix

Dry socks.
Insulated stadium seat has not yet been mentioned. Ground sitting with back support and cushioning from wet/hard sitting surfaces. I’m sure I’m able to sit still better and if needed glass more comfortably.
And since it’s fairly cheap and I’m way under the $100 limit, I have to say that my shooting stick is inseparable from the cushioned seat. Seated in my ground chair with my shotgun, crossbow or rifle on my sticks, I can have my weapon on the sticks and shouldered with little movement required to be ready to shoot.

Lots of good items. I'll add a compass. With gps in phone it has fallen out of favor, but I like to have one with me. Takes up minimal space.

Stand hunting? I feel I would definitely need those if I was not hiking.

In terms of shear convenience for me it’s prob my OnX subscription…and I don’t count in my phone cuz I’d have one whether I hunt or not.

Could be argued that this isn’t strictly a hunting item, but I cannot imagine hunting without a hat. I’m a bald guy, and my ball cap is honestly the first thing I thought of when I read the OP. I’d feel like my ding dong was hanging out without it.

Must be a hell of a hat.

You tried the little backpacking rags you just add water? They’re about the size of a piece of trident gum and you can spit on it and it’s a full size dinner towel! They are handy at about 0.99 a piece!!
