Dove bag/vest

What brand or style do you use for Dove hunting? I’ve Game Winner or Magellan the past couple of years, but the quality isn’t as good as I would like. Looking for the next best mouse trap. Thanks for your help.

I just always bought what ever was at walmart. Vest style with pocket on back. They last for several years and work just fine.I never considered a vest helping me hit more birds. Maybe that has always been my problem.

I much prefer bird bags (shell bags on sides and larger bird bag in back) vs a vest. And I like fixed bags vs sliders. (or tie them in place)

The one I have now,I have had for probably 10 years. I think I got it from Academy. Not an item I would invest a large amount of money in, simply because, I’ll only wear it maybe 6 or 7 times during dove season. Mine is faded, has a couple of tears in it, but still functions for what I need.

Of important note- regardless of which style you choose- they all work better with some of last year's feathers and dried blood in the pouches!

Several years ago I actually left a bird in mine. I had hung the vest on a hook in the garage. I kept smelling something dead in my garage. Smell went away and i moved on. The next dove season I grabbed the vest off the hook and a few feathers flew out from the side. Stuck my hand in the pocket and pulled out a very dried up dove. I limited out several times that season so yeah, it works.

It is easy to do after a long hot day of shooting birds.

I have moved away from a vest for dove hunting, especially in warm weather. Have found a 5 gallon camo bucket much more useful. It is used to carry in boxes of shells, disassembled mojo, bottled water, etc. Then used during the (mostly lawn chair sit-down) hunt for empty hulls and to keep fire ants off dead birds.

Glad to know I'm not the only one.
