it sounds like im no different than must . i carry 4 or 5 mouth calls, 1 box, 2 slates, owl hoot, crow call, 2 decoys(w/stakes i always lose), gloves, headnet, bug spray, tp, and a wing if i know that i have one on the limb.every time i try to lighten it up i always just stuff it all back in my vest.the more pockets they put on these vest just make it hard not to!!!!!
