Turkey Vest Question

How would you want your pot call pocket to close on your vest?

Snap
Bungee
Buckle
Zipper

Also, what is something that you want in a vest that you haven't seen or just dont have?

Thanks!

Zipper

Zipper and air conditioning

The Dixon vest is perfect. Cushioned Elastic to hold two pots, with a buckle and a zippered pouch.

I don't want a pot call pocket.

I've just about given up on the perfect vest quest. I think I may go with a satchel next year.

To answer your question, zipper for pots with decent padding on them too.

I want a seat, with a single fold up leg. Like a fishing seat on the front of a bass boat.
I can drop the leg, lean back against a tree, then fold it up quick and move.
My knees have gotten so bad, I can't get off the ground, and when I finally stand up I'm hurting so bad it takes another 5 minutes to move.

YES!

Me neither. I just put my one pot call and striker in one of the big inside pockets. I've lost several strikers out of the pockets made for them, so I quit using them.

strikers go in the box call pocket under the box call. Pots in upper chest pocket in a cloth bag X2.

Went that route this year and haven't looked back!

I don't want a vest.

Waterproof zipper pocket with built in carbon fiber Turkey lounger with zippers and seams that last

X1000000 You’d think somebody could put out a vest that didn’t tear up after one or two seasons.

I went down the same path one season and lost half my gear with that damn satchel.

I bought the under armour bestbthat is built like a tactical vest. You can buy extra pockets and move them around where you want. It has held upvery welll over three seasons of abuse.

Zipper on every pocket. Yes on pot call pockets, at least two.

Alps grand slam is an awesome vest. Only improvement is make it lighter and put stronger magnets on the cushion.

the smaller Crown Royal bags are perfect for pot calls

dang, been wearing the same one for 20 years with a few fixins and changes.

My favorite one - a Super Elite 3 - was beat to hell when I got it. I just keep patching and stitching it as needed. I figure pretty soon I'll have "fixed" on it enough that it'll essentially be a brand new vest!

They don’t make em like they did 20 years ago apparently.

Either that or they don’t go over, under, and through enough fences, cutover, and briars

Nah, folks just learned to keep some wire cutters in their vest for those pesky barbwire fences...

I rarely have time for stopping to cut fences

I like a zipper

A vest for less girthful folks would be mighty nice; I like the layout of my Cabela's vest but it is way too big for me. I guess I am going to have to shop in the kids section before next season. I am about 10 pounds heavier than I like to be and still can't find a decent vest that fits.

Maybe I just don't like change but my super elite fits all my needs just fine

Little girly men usually don't hunt turkeys. They like to cook and drive a Mazda Miata.

Shots fired!

Usually if you see a little skinny beanpole fella that likes to turkey hunt he’s gonna he pretty rough on them from what I’ve seen. They have lots of built in advantages

Be a skinny, beanpole, girly man comes in handy when you're piddlin' and need to high tail it up hill with a 20 pound boar tom over yer shoulder.
