What's in my bird hunting vest?

Water. Ammo. What else? Watch the video and make sure you have the dozen-or-so essential bits of bird hunting gear in your own vest, that I never leave the truck without!

Thank you for all the great content. I love your videos as you always cover the dog aspect of upland hunting. I have wirehairs as well and wouldn’t bird hunt without a dog. The dog work is one of my favorite aspects of the adventure and you always highlight that. Thank you again for such great product!

[@ScottLindenOutdoors]

Thanks Brandon, and you're welcome.

Good start, in addition to those items I also carry a battery pack and cable for my phone, a LED flashlight, An MRE, A space blanket, rain poncho (orange), and signal mirror. Oh and a back up whistle.

Gotta imagine that collar control might have some primo waypoints stored in it.

[@ScottLindenOutdoors]

Ha!

[@velcrodog1270]

I suggest some Zip ties, plastic wire ties that can be used to hold open a conibear trap if your dog gets caught. There are many videos out there that show how to use them. It will save their life and weigh next to nothing.

Have you weighed your vest hunt ready?

Not full. My last one weighed about 20 pounds for a day hunt.

[@steveparsons6324]

Scott, I noticed you’re using a Wingworks vest in the video. Right now, it’s my favorite, and I love mine, but always looking. Have you found anything as good, but perhaps lighter. If needed, send a PM if you can’t answer online.

[@ScottLindenOutdoors]

The Cabela's strap vest is made of lighter fabric with the same general configuration and I use it as much as the WingWorks. It's all about how much water you need to carry and what infrastructure you need to support it.

[@nospam3409]

Thanks for the overview! I'm looking to update my game vest. Any recommendations?
