Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Default Bucklick Creek vests

Just wondering if anyone has seen any of these left on the net. The company has apparently gone under, despite the fact they make the best turkey hunting vest ever invented, [:@].

I know Bass Pro has two models available, and I also know theres one sitting in a local store, just wondering who else has them. My current vest is about shot so I'm needing one for this spring.

Bucklick Creek sold out to BassPro last year. Walter Parrott and anothe Pro Staffer helped re-design the lounge vest for BassPro.
I have a Bukclick Creek brand but haven't looked at the BassPro model. You may have a hard time finding an original Bucklick Creek now. If a local store has one you might be better off the get it while you can.

Tail Feathers hit the nail on the head. I heard last spring that BPS had bought out Bucklick Creek. There are quite a few fans of this vest on this forum. Personally, I use the Mossy Oak Super Elite II and highly recommend it.

I was at Bass Pro today here in Georgia and they had the Bucklick Creek and their own version in stock.
I too prefer the Mossy Oak Elite. Our season doesnt end until mid May and by then its over 80 degrees and those Bucklick Creeks get real hot and real heavy.
