Turkey Vest Recommendation
« on: April 23, 2014, 10:00:28 AM »
Anybody have any suggestions on some good turkey vests?  Something to support my back up against a tree and a good cushion to sit on.
If you're not first, your last!!

most of them have good back and bottom support.  As for the vest... it all depends on what you need to carry. I found with the bigger vest... I just end up carrying more junk that I really don't need. I settled for a lightweight Ol Tom ... has just enough pockets but isn't overboard.

I tried on and looked at a whole ton of vests when I bought a couple years ago. I set a budget of $200 or less.

My requirements were that it have a comfy seat, quiet fabric, planty of pockets that close securely, and the ability to use a hydration bladder.

I wound up with a Red Head. It has done everything I have asked of it, and I'm still happy with it.

I'm going to watch this thread with interest. The seams gave out on by Bucklick Creek Lounger this spring, so my buddy and I have each had two of them go bad over the last 4 seasons.  I do like the stadium seat feature of that vest, so that's why I buy them. But I'm switching this year, even if I have to carry a chair around with me.

How does the tactical Tat'r  feel while leaning against a tree withe the frame? Does the frame interfere with your comfort against the tree?

I've used a Russell NWTF vest for years.

I had some issues with 2 Ole Tom T&M vest this past spring. I got a Red Head vest for Christmas and am anxious to try it this spring.
