As you prepare to enter the field of battle \u2014 also known as a pumpkin patch \u2014 with a mission to carve the best Jack o\u2019lantern the porch has ever known, consider these tips from the silent professionals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get a good night\u2019s sleep<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You don\u2019t want to be battle-weary while on the hunt for the perfect pumpkin. Stay frosty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practice combat breathing<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Waft in the smell of the farm\u2019s apple cider and cinnamon doughnuts for four seconds, then release for four seconds. This will give you strength, courage, and clarity for the mission ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Watch your six<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You never know if a stealthy family will sneak up from behind and snake the most desirable orange gourd. Deploy your spouse and kids to keep 360 degrees of eyes on the field. Even better, put the smallest child on your shoulders so you have a bird\u2019s eye view, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Secure the perimeter<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do a full walk-through of the pumpkin patch. Survey each of its rows. You don\u2019t want to miss out on the best squash by being too hasty. This process takes time and precision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visualize success<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See the pumpkin, be the pumpkin, buy the pumpkin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Don&#8217;t forget to watch your six.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":107615,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"single-post-observation-post","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":72,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":[]},"categories":[101,23,72,12,25,13,69],"tags":[],"coauthors":[3272],"class_list":["post-69235","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-news-roundup","category-home","category-military-culture","category-news","category-newsletters","category-off-duty","category-your-marine-corps"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"FINZC6F6P5FFRFLTLC6GBCHAFM","arc_canonical_url":"\/off-duty\/military-culture\/2023\/10\/13\/how-to-go-pumpkin-picking-like-a-navy-seal\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"observation-post","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) -
