Default turkey lounger vests?

i' ve spent the last few hours doing research on these vests. i have read about the highback, bucklick creek, deluxe and extreme on this message board. i can only find the highback and bucklick creek in bass pro.
mosy links divert me to other sites.
i cant find a site that actually manufacturers these vests.
a phone number that was given does not connect!
where can i get info on the deluxe and extreme?
does the bucklick creek have the same self supporting chair design as the highbackare there other vests with the self supporting seat available?
arrgh......any info would be great

Squidkid, I own the Bucklick Creek Highback Turkey Lounger. As far as I' m concerned, you can stop looking because this vest is all that. It' s the most comfortable vest available as far as I am concerned. If the others compare, then they are really something. I used the Mossy Oak Elite prior to purchasing this vest. My one hunting partner and friend had the Lounger and I couldn' t wait to get mine. I retired the MO Elite.

I agree, my husband and I each bought one last year. We don' t go to the woods without it now.

The Deluxe and Extreme models are both older and no longer manufactured. From what I' ve heard the company who made them, Bucklick Creek, has gone under and the vests are only available through Bass Pro Shops. The Bass Pro lounger is very similar to the Extreme turkey lounger. Either of the two vest BPS has would be good, when I buy another, I will probably go with the High Back.

Hey I got my Highback lounger from Basspro on Monday. All I can say is its so comfortable that the kids want to use it for sitting in front of the TV. As my daughter said yesterday " It won`t be fair this spring if you have that unless unless we get one too."
