Need A New Vest

[Tnandy]

I need advice on the best lightweight, with a descent or good seat, Turkey Vest, etc... ? Some of the   places I hunt involve a lot of walking and I have to cut down on my big Primos rocker vest. I love it but not for long walks and carrying the essentials. Somebody point me in the right direction

Sounds like you want a Glenda Green satchel and innertube seat.

I've got a brand new FA vest for sale for 20$ less than you'll find one that would be perfect for that. It's my favorite vest that has been released lately. Only reason I'm selling it is because I got a deal on a fox vest and in my opinion the fox vest is the finest that's ever been made. I also have a few others listed over in the classifieds, I don't need them anymore

Alps Longspur Deluxe, Sitka  . If you're looking for something more economical look at the Rodgers sporting goods vest,

A half dozen vests are available in the Misc. Classifieds.  I was looking at the Will Primos Signature.  Looks like a Great layout and I believe the seat is 3 inches thick.  My 2 cents.

Are you tall and fat, or short and skinny?

I am short and skinny (working on getting more fat)...  Tried a number of vests at the local Sportsman's Wherehouse...  Everything fits me like a dress.  Went with the the Cabela's Tatr' and still have it.

Your preference on vest will somewhat very depending on your body size/shape, especially if you fall outside of average...

One thing I have found that duck hunters and turkey hunters seem to have in common is that most are big and fat.  I have never found clothing in the classifieds that fits me...  I am a medium or large, which is generally unheard apparently for most duck or turkey hunters???  Most clothing items or XXL or XXXL apparently???

I can't overstress how much I like the Sitka vest.  I wasn't a Sitka guy at all before I bought it, and honestly didn't want to like it.  Now I'm considering buying a spare in case they discontinue it or something.

Nomad has a vest just called the nomad turkey vest it seems to have a pretty lightweight design and with my favorite camo og real tree advantage.. personally haven't tried it I have an alpz grand slams it's real nice but it is a little bulky I like the room though

I just went lumbar pack and bino harness. I'll never wear my vest again. Glenda green seat is on the way. I went seatless my first 5 hunts this season, I'm not as tough as I think I am...

AMEN!  Comfort = Patience when it comes to turkey hunting.

X 100. This is the best vest I've had yet. Sitka ingenuity, quality, and over-all attention to detail makes this a solid choice.......

Appreciate all the input. I am 5'10 and around 230. (Solid, Lol). I am looking at something with thin shoulder straps and not as hot. That satchel may be what I need, not 100% sure. Sure appreciate the help y'all have offered. Anyone think of anything else , let me know. I will check out the classifieds better.

For a seat, you can't beat a Glenda Green tube! Only ever owned 2 vest, current one is from Midway, it is lightweight. The cushion that was on it was less than desirable but easily removed.

I agree! Sitka is awesome! I actually have the vest and the tool belt. Got the tool belt as a gift and I bought the vest. The vest is awesome and very well thought out. I ran the Tactical Tatr' for over a decade and decided to upgrade. It's far sleeker and my favorite I've ever tried.
