Title: Digital Turkey Scales
Post by: Ol'Mossy on February 22, 2012, 07:31:59 AM
Do they make these anymore? I am looking for a digital turkey scale to carry in the woods with me

I checked at:

Cabelas

Gander Mountain

Bass Pro Shops

Midwest Turkey Calls

Can't seem to find it anywhere.

I got one like this.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/40Kg-10g-Digital-Hangging-Luggage-Fishing-Weight-SCALE-/330690192890?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4cfeabe5fa

Has worked just fine for 3 years now. There will be a long lead time in shipping, so take that into consideration.

Pretty sure a lot of us ordered them from Ebay. It takes a while with shipping though. Most of them are fish scales, but work well, and are small in size.

This is the one I used last season.

Yea..the company that made the orginal turkey scale, Nature Vision went belly up and filed bancruptcy. I still have one and its works fine, but others have not had as much luck.

I got one of these a couple yrs ago (can't remember which one) and paid about $4.00. Never had a problem with it.

I found one for $40. Kind of pricey, but every turkey I weigh comes in around 30 pounds. Best $40 I ever spent!

When I got mine 3 years ago, I received exactly what was pictured. I won the auction with a bid for $1.00 and free shipping. Weird how it can work like that. YMMV.

They all vary. Be careful, as some charge a BUNCH for shipping.
