Cabela's Ultimate Field Dog System vest is perfect for pheasant hunting on preserves and release sites.
or if you ever need a blaze orange fly fishing vest, I believe the ultimate field dog system has enough useless pockets on it to get the job done.
I used that vest toward the end of Westside pheasant last year because it has a legal amount of orange on it. It definitely has enough pockets to put your stuff in and for a vest that isn't advertised as waterproof, it did a decent job of keeping the drizzle at bay for awhile.
My biggest beef with that vest is that the main cargo pockets will dump their contents when you bend over. sometimes even when they are snapped shut. I lost count of how many times all my shells poured out, or my pocket camera hit the ground.
If you keep that in mind and don't put anything valuable in those pockets its a pretty good vest, I believe I got mine on sale for like $40.
The quilomene vest is pricey as well as the WingWorks.
Also, there isn't a lot of blaze in those vests. How do you get around that requirement?
I like the Field Dog system.
That is the only down fall of those two vests. either will outlast any cheaper vest you can find and both will out perform many in a comparable price range.
Wing works is a hell of a lot of vest for the money, plus the owner is a great guy to deal with. But its more for the guys that leave the truck in the morning and don't come back until they run out of shells, reach their limit, or it gets dark.
I wear a shooting shirt with blaze orange on it under my strap vests, or I just use a cheapo mesh blaze vest to wear underneath so I am legal.
