Modifying box call pockets / other pockets you don't use

[Delmar ODonnell]

I don't even own a box call so I was thinking about trying to remove the box call pocket from my Alps Grand Slam and replacing it with a pouch or regular pocket so it is not just empty space on my vest. Anyone have any cool modifications that they have done on their vest?

Box call pocket holds bug spray real nice :0)

I use mine for a water bottle holder.

Mine is usually carrying a couple bananas or a protein bar. Just was thinking it would be a lot more useful if it was a general use pocket.

I rarely carry a box call.  The box call pocket is always the thing that sticks out most and get in the way the most.  But since I do carry one some, I leave it alone.

And here I am wishing I had a 2nd box call pocket.

You should PM Dirtnap and see if he kept one.

I had a nomad vest for a while and hates the way the double pot call pockets stuck out so I cut them off. Then I sold it lol. I just did a little sewing on the back of my grand slam vest to help it fit me a little better a few days ago. I hope it holds up.

I did not even know there were turkey hunters that do not have a box call???  I thought it was a rule or something???

I bought one of those box call holsters with a clip, that clips and holds on nicely to the vest (so I can carry two).  For covering ground and trying to drum up a gobble, I do not think there is a better call.

That being said, I were I to not want to use or carry a box call, I think I would remove it.  Most box call pockets are horizontal and I have no doubt that I would lose stuff.

I hear ya!  I added one to my vest.  I wasn't much of a box call guy until I got a couple from the guys that build them here.  Yikes, they are good.

Sorry to go off topic, OP.
