Tenzing TZ TV18 Turkey Hunting Vest

Anyone have this vest and if so, what do you think about it?

I bought one a few years ago after my Cabelas Tat'r vest somehow was lost when I moved houses. The Tenzing is a quality vest, but I wish I'd have stuck with the Tat'r. The Tat'r had a strong magnet that actually the seat folded up against the vest while you were walking. The Tenzing magnet isn't strong enough to keep the seat up, so it hits your legs while you're walking. I'm also fairly thin (6'1'' 175 lbs), and I can't get the Tenzing as snug as I'd like.


In sum, it's a good vest, but I'd go a different route if I were purchasing another one.

I have the Tenzing TV 14 vest, so take my previous reply for what it's worth.

I was checking one out last night after work and the one thing that got me was that it seemed compact but at the same time had lots of storage.  I also liked the seat as well. Seems smaller than what I have currently.
