Firstlite Turkey Vest Review
Review Highlights
[1]
Lightweight & Comfort
This isn't a one-size-fits-all disaster. The adjustment points allow the vest to move with you, preventing the dreaded sag during those aggressive three-mile stalks. This is the most lightweight Vest I have used for a full size turkey vest.

Storage Evolution
The layout is simple but hits the needed features. Outside pockets for mouth calls, Striker sleeves on both left and right front pockets, and sleeves in the decoy carrying pack that hold those decoy stakes in one spot. One downfall is, I wish there was a magnet on the seat to be able to flip up the seat and have it secure. While the seat never got in my way while walking i could see that as a future upgrade. One other thing i would upgrade is a little bit more padding on the pot call sleeves but it is not a deal breaker.

Pros vs Cons List
As i mentioned before a little bit more padding on the pot call sleeves and a magnet system on the seat would be an upgrade. The Pros out weight the Cons by a mile. With lightweight comfort, this is the best choice for your run and gun setup.

Rugged Bayou Rating
8.7
The First Lite turkey vest is built for the mobile hunter who wants smart storage without extra bulk. The fit rides close to the body so it doesn’t bounce when you’re climbing ridges or slipping through brush, and the pocket layout keeps calls, shells, and tags right where you expect them. It’s comfortable enough for long sits against a tree, tough enough for rough country, and shines for hunters who like to stay light, organized, and on the move.
