I bought me a blacks creek turkey texedo at bass pro a couple days ago, It seems like it would be perfect for calling yotes, It has plenty of space for calls and a nice little seat. Anyone else you a turkey vest.
 
I have used a turkey vest before and it works very well, especially if you use hand calls and live in a moderate climate. I have since switched to Cabela's Speed Yote Seat. I can actually fit my CS 24 caller in the back pocket (snug fit though). I needed something similar to a turkey vest, but it can be hard to get a turkey vest over heavy winter clothing. The Speed Yote Seat goes around your waist, more like a fanny pack with a seat. Not through testing it yet.
 
I have had the Primos Predator vest since it hit the market and I like it enough that I bought an extra recently just in case they quit making them.
I like the looks of the new Foxpro vest as well. I just checked Cabelas prices for Turkey vests and they run from 60.00 to 130.00 so the Foxpro vest is not totally out of line pricewise.
 
I've been using H.S. Ultimate Turkey Waist Pack.

It's almost perfect. Got a couple holders for strakers that fit either flashlights or howlers. The box call holder is perfect for TX-500 Remote. The slate pocket fits a 10rd AR mag or a box of #4 Buck and a similar one on the opposite side with loops in it for shotgun shells. Has a nice sized main compartment. Closures are either zippers or magnets no velcro. Also the colors are subdued, no bright greens like a lot of turkey gear. I bought it at Rural King on clearance a cpl years ago for like $10 I think they are normally $20 there if you have one close. It's also got a nice pocket perfect for range finder or smaller binos. And a smaller one in front of that for batteries.

peace.

I use an HS Strut turkey vest I bought from cabelas bargain bin a few years back for $29.00. I can honestly say it was the best money I ever spent on hunting equipment. That thing has proven to be an absolute asset. Lite, very well made, comfortable to wear, and more compartments than you'll ever need.
 
I wear an Eastman that I got at Wally world about 6 years ago. Has a seat, back rest and the decoy pouch in back is great for stowing shooting sticks, water, etc. and it fits under my coats. I don't take it off to drive either. I added pockets and a holster. Won't leave home w/o it!
 
Yeah, My wife found a nice turky vest at Goodwill back in early winter. No green at all on it, and it's huge.
I'm 6' and 260lbs and let out, this vest will easily go over my winter clothes and ghillie suit. But, I do put my ghillie coat over the vest. The tags have been cut out and I can't find a name brand.

Here's a bowhunter's vest at Cabelas I've been eyeing. 12 pockets and a pouch is pretty alluring. Wish it came in MO Brush though. Definitely looks like a good tool for the treestand to keep things close & secured.

I use a turkey vest from Natgear. I has many more pockets than most vests I have seen and also has inside pockets too.
I don't know why more manufacturers don't put pockets on the inside. It is a great predator hunting vest.
 
I use an Eastman lazy lounger turkey hunting chair. It is a turkey vest that has a hard frame chair with a fold out seat pad. It has 2 detachable pockets on the side that will hold alot of stuff. The thing that I like about it is you don't have to have a tree to sit against. The bad part about it is the pockets are too big. It allows you to carry way too much junk. I have to clean it out every couple of weeks.
 
i was thinkin about gettin the new vest that walmart recently started selling but knowing walmart its probly overpriced for the quality
