What's the verdict on these vests? Are they any good, worth the price?  How bout the kickstand version?  Thanks Roy

I had one for five minutes.  I'm sure it's a good vest, it just wasn't for me.   I'd suggest going somewhere that you could try on several different vest and then decide.  If thats not possible order one, if you don't like it send it back and get something else.

I like my original tactical tatr and just ordered a tac tater 2 on sale now.  I love the original and use it a bunch for bow hunting deer when im using a climbing treestand.

I've tried many different vests and this is by far the best. Not experience with the kickstand version though.

Great vest I really liked it.
Sold my here a few months ago and got a run and gun belt.
The belt fit my style better.

I love mine.  I used it this year and switched from a limbhanger vest.  I like the Tatr' 2 a lot better.  Best vest I've owned.

Ordered the kickstand today. Thought the 50th anniversary edition was way too black.

I was going to maybe order the 50th anniversary one tomorrow, but I wondered if it was too black also! What does everyone else think? Is it too much black?

Pretty sure the black wont make a difference, shadows are black.  That's the one I ordered.

Cabelas sold out already.


Update:

I called Cabelas this morning and they show one left.

Would have ordered two, one for my brother but took what I could.

Have the old style already. Great vest just no game bad to carry out the Turk.

Always conned my brother to carry the Turk for me.

Guess I will have to make up another excuse!

I doubt the black will make any difference to the turkeys, but I think its ugly.  I've been looking and think I'll try one on the next time I'm near a Cabelas store in November.........if they have them in stock.

Mine was waiting for me when i got home from work.  The black isn't as noticeable as in the picture.  My biggest gripe with the original was no game bag as well.

Well the vest came today.

When I checked on line the first time they really were out of the Tactical Tat'r vest.

When I called while looking on line the second time I must have made a mistake and ordered the Super Tat'r #2 vest thinking it was the Tactical.

Not what I wanted.

So I called and confirmed that they were out of the Tactical both times I inquired so it was my mistake.

The 50th Anniversary Tactical was still available so I ordered that. $69.99.

The one I don't want was $49.99. I can send it back or see if someone else wants it. They are also sold out.

I love my original but it just does not have a game bag.
