Not sure if the Badlands one is still available as I don't see it on their main site. Probably real nice if it's anything like the rest of their packs.

I'll ask. I'm working with Badlands on some new pack designs. I don't think they make this anymore but it's possible to have them find one at a dealer somewhere.

Thanks....I appreciate you doing that. If you locate one I think I'd buy it just because of the quality of all their stuff. Let me know.

Mossy Oak Super Elite III, have one for me and one for one of my kids... This year I will need another so we all match. :chuckle:

Just look at the positive side.....two for them, one for me.....two for them, one for me.
I remember when the kids got old enough to hunt....much easier getting hunting stuff by the wife.....one for them, one for me. Was kind of like making stealth purchases....lol. :IBCOOL:

Wac, I bought one of the taters, the one that had the holster like leg pockets, and tried on the tactial one , I found two things if you have(like I do) a little dunlap disease they are a little tight aroound the gravity induced sag ;) And the pocket are pretty call specific where I liked the organization it hampered the quick up& move repositioning that can happen from time to time, the one I bought at least didn't have the oversized pockets for a rapid gathering instead I had to sit there wasting extra time putting everything back just so :twocents:
Thanks for the information....appreciate it.

Bucklick Creek Lounger from Basspro. IMHO the best Turkey Vest ever made from a functional perspective. Unbelievably comfortable. It does have some minor drawbacks but the (+) far and away make up for the (-).
X2 Ive worn this vest for ten years+ The lounger is awesome, that chair is adjustable and really supports your back.

No too many folks reported getting two mature birds last year due to the snow, etc. What was your secret?
Post by: turkey slayer on February 12, 2009, 08:26:03 PM
You know last year was the hadest year of turkey hunting i have ever had. the snow didn't help but they just would no gobble. That pic of that first bird, I sat up on him 13 different in 3 weeks befour killing him on may 3rd at around 7 in the morning coming off of his roast, i never gave up on him and i beleave that is what you have to do when they act like that. I am one of those people that once a bird stop talking or leaves the area and i no its a big tom I wont give up til i get him .That dosen't mean to presure him or scare him out of the area, that mean to scout him listen for him in the morning and at night, find out where his strut lanes are, his roasting area. just be consisten. 22.5 pound-10.5 inch beard and 1 and 8th spurs
the 2ed pic is my first bird of last year on april 15 at day light. 19 pounds- 8 inch beard with hook and 3/4 inch spurs

As far as fitness, I have a ways to go to get in shape by April 15th!! :P :P It's been quite the winter! Where did you get all those turkey mounts and fans on your living room wall? :dunno:

Think I might connect the leg pockets behind the drop seat to hold it in place and unsnap and lay beside me while sitting. :dunno:
