Turkey Vests
« on: Mar 16, 2011, 07:31:59 PM »
I am in the market for a new turkey hunting vest anyone have any suggestions looking for a durable, comfortable, and best usage for all calls room wise slate, box call, locators, and what not. Thank you in advance for advice. I know H.S. STRUT S.U.V. (sportsman's utility vest) at wally world is $40.00 but I don't know if it will last most wally world stuff don't

Had that one RJ. Worked well, but the decoy pouch was a little small. Only thing I found wrong.

they are tough to get a good one...usually a manufacturer comes out with something different every year...and ya have to hit it right to find the one you're lookin for...
If its BROWN...Its DOWN!!!      If it FLYS...It DIES!!!

No problem I dont mind, it should help you make your decision. ;) Plenty of room in the back pocket to carry a bird or decoys. As you can see I took pics of the inside as well and its loaded with pocket. Foam padded neck for comfort. I highly recommend it.

was looking at them the other day as well but $99 for the one are they worth it? I know they guarantee their product kinda a bonus for the purchase to have it forever any issues with them?

I swapped out my vest last year for a fanny pack by HS Strut. It holds all my stuff and isnt as hot as a vest. I love it!
