what vest will you be wearing most this spring?  i love my super elite III (i love the layout), but might be looking at a strap vest that is a bit cooler, maybe an ol' tom.

Went with this one... light weight and plenty of room for my calls and gear.

that's the one i'm thinking about too.  did you order it from them directly?  assuming that their website is up to date, they have had about everything on clearance, for the past 8 months or so.

I've tried several and finally settled on the Primos Vest.  I'm going to look into this more this Spring.  I'd like the Ol' Tom Vest one, but cannot find one locally :(

I purchased mine from a member on OG who was selling it.

I've used the Primos vest for the last 5 years or so. It does get a little warm at times but has certainly held up to some abuse and it's laid out pretty nice.

I've got the Super Elite III and love it.  I can put a lot of calls in that thing.

Don't bend the truth Mike, you can't find one that's big enough to haul around all the calls you take with you :)

I've hunted an old Bucklick Creek vest for several years and decided to retire it as it was killing my rear.  So I just ordered a Cabelas Tactical Tater' II vest for the coming season.

Let me know how you like that one.  It's high on my list, but I'm very picky.  I wish Bass Pro would have better selections, but they have a terrible selection here :(

if the seat isn't to your liking, i'd add a wheelbarrow innertube or one of these-

I actually have one of those, the problem is here in Osceola country there are sand spurs and cacti all over the place.  I spent more time patching the tube than hunting with it, so I need to go to another option.
