Quote from: wvmntnhick on August 29, 2016, 01:56:00 PMPrimos gobbler vest. Been using one for 10-11 years now. Always want to try something new but keep talking myself out of it because I'm comfortable with what I've got. It's got plenty of pockets and the strikers are in individual sleeves. I did lose a couple a few years ago but have since figured out how and why it happened so that's under control now. For the days of going light I'd look into the ol' tom vestless shirt.

I've tried on various vests at Cabelas, Gander Mt, and Bass Pro, and the thing that is amazing, they all feel very different on. I'd highly suggest trying before buying IF you can. As much as I wanted to like certain highly recommended vests suggested here on the OLD Gobbler, they just weren't comfy once I got them on.Another thing that I'd do, is bring all your stuff with you to the store to put into the pockets & then try it on. That helped me to rule out several vests also. In the end, I think it is a very personal choice, like a pair of jeans. They don't all feel the same on everyone.For now, the Super Elite III is still my go to vest.

In all honesty it doesn't take a lot of equipment to kill a turkey. I like to be prepared just in case. I am usually by myself and I am a traveler. Often miles from my truck so I come prepared. Matches, snake bite kit, jerky, knife, toilet paper, and compass just to name things off the top of my head. Just remember that it's easy to overload it and be hating life if your eyes are bigger than your back.
