At the first of the season, way too much but by the end of the season 0. If it won't fit in a pocket or around my neck, I don't need it

I stay very hot, I can not make myself put a vest back on after hunting without one for several years.

I tried a time or two last year, with a very small light, primos with shoulder straps. I still had that joker off within a hour or two.


Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.

Remind me what your talking about.

I tote way too much. But really, what is needed other than a call or two and a gun?? That may be enough for some. Actually if your carrying woodsman-ship and patience, you could kill more turkeys without a call. Callin is just the fun part. I don't care if u stuff ol' Eddie Salter himself in your vest, without those two your season is gonna be slow as far as killin.

I have a gun with 3 shells in it,a couple more in my pocket,a few mouth calls,my slate or glass call and a crow call and owl hooter,no need to wear a vest to put that little bit in,a vest would actually be a burden on me because I will put the crawl on one if needed
