Do any of y'all use one? If so, what kind? One that captures the feet or feet and legs? I quit wearing a vest a few yrs ago and it can get interesting trying to tote a bird for a long distance. Thanks

I have no clue what a turkey tote is or how much they cost but seems like it would be a good project for braiding paracord.
Two self tightening noose kinda knots on each end and braid up the center part that goes over the shoulder.

I'm just looking for some reviews or input from actual users for the best kind to try. If you use one that just holds the legs the wings will flop unless you tie them down and possibly still have arm fatigue. Was thinking maybe one that loops around legs then other end around head would allow to sling over shoulder like a gun sling

Lord help us from rookies....
take a piece of canvas strapping maybe 16" long and fold the ends 1/2" over on itself and sew em across the strap. Tie a piece of rawhide string to make a 12" loop on either end. Insert turkey haid in one end, both feet in other end by forming a loop on either end. Place strap over shoulder and head home.....
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I stick them in my vest sometimes but I have toted them by the feet over my shoulder for a long way without a problem.

I've always toted them in a vest until I quit wearing one a few yrs ago. Toted a pile over my shoulder by their feet, just lookin for a better way for long hikes out

I find it humorous really. I looked up what turkey tote is after I posted and funny enough lots are made from paracord.

I use a paracord one. Cobra pattern with loops on both ends. Tie the head and feet and carry him like a
bag. Super easy to make. When I didn’t use a vest I just stuffed it in a leg pocket. Very handy.
Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.

Thanks for the info fellas. I'll look at the Primos one. There's a guy on GN that makes them also. N2, where'd you get yours from?

I bought one from a fella on old gobbler. Then BC made me a couple also.

I use one that BC made. I have carried the majority of turkeys out with it. Really makes a huge difference.

BC made paracord tote with loops on the ends. I have a strap I put around the wings and cinch them up so they don't flop. I loop one end of the tote over both legs , the other over the neck , tote him like a purse.
Side note, if you're gonna tote by the legs only, hanging straight down , paracord tote better be short or his head will bump the ground.
"Why do you ask"?
Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.

I have a nylon strap that works great, but it also can be looped onto my vest and it holds the butt of my gun to my shoulder
Well, the way I see it is there's just too many assholes
On a good day there's a bunch of assholes in here.
