I'm trying this shoulder bag this year. Holds about the same amount he carries or a couple more calls if you want. Great bag I think.

And a man that can run a tube like that doesn't need anyone calling for him.

Love his videos, he is a sure enough turkey hunter and cut his teeth on some of the hardest public woods around in his earlier days.

Im sure he doesn't need many calls when others call for him.
Cuz is as good of a guy as you will ever meet.  Absolute salt of the earth and I'm honored to call him my friend. 
He spends most of his time hunting with his grandkids and other children growing our turkey hunter ranks.  That said he does all of his own calling unless he's behind the camera. 
Helps to know a little about someone before making such an uninformed statement like that.  :)


He's a great caller and hunter an even a better person. Use to call in some contests with him back in the early 80's. He sure doesn't need any help calling a gobbler!

I like his vest...


He has but I do not:

  • Shears
  • crow call
  • Pot call (I kept losing those little sticks)
  • Tube call

I have but he does not:

  • 2 box calls (and chalk)
  • A few more diaphragm calls (mine are on a lanyard as well)
  • Gobble call
  • Snacks
  • GPS (they would still be looking for me somewhere if I did not have one)
Did I do that?

Fly fishermen are born honest, but they get over it.

Whew! Man, that's pared down!
I'm feeling like I maybe am overcompensating for my inadequacies...I need to weight train before the season to be able to carry all the stuff I do... :-[

I like those straps on that vest. Wish I could put those on mine.

In theory, they are a great idea. Actual use, not so much. I hunted out of a Dixon vest for a couple of years and those straps had a bad habit of binding on my shoulder and back and limiting movement. I went with the Limbhanger, which is basically the same vest without those Quake shoulder straps and it really freed up my movement when sitting down and trying to move.

MANNNN...If I could crank on a tube like Mr.Strickland. I'd have a brand new water bottle holder too. Lolol! I could definitely do a little bit of downsizing. There's been manny a time when I didn't need anything,except that double reed. I'm a little surprised he had no glass pot. I believe you really don't need much,and I'm talking about turkey calls. However,it's nice to have options. I'm also liking the face paint thing we've all lost our net a few times. I could go to a box,slate,wing bone,a few reeds,with 2 locator calls and that would lighten the load. Not forgetting the TP   :funnyturkey:
Great video right there.

Wow...that water bottle of his is noisy.

Yup, we have noticed that and ditched "water bottles" they are such a thin material and noisy. I do carry a water bottle but I use a Mountain Dew bottle, green in color and doesn't crinkle.

This is what I use for water or ice tea. Fits on the side of my tactical tater II vest.
