Bull Lounger

Extra calls? Check. Ammo? Check. Gloves, mask, water bottle, maybe a lightweight decoy? Check. The Nomad Bull Lounger turkey vest can carry them all.

The Bull Lounger is an option for hunters who want a lightweight vest that handles any condition with storage and comfort, whether it’s in the early season before full greenup or the last day when the woods are thick with humidity. It boasts an aluminum frame back design that permits hunters to sit upright and rigid without needing a tree to lean against. The removable, high-density foam seat cushion has magnet attachments and an adjustment handle. It also has an external pocket to hold a ThermaCell repellent unit.

The vest has 14 points of adjustment for a “one size fits most” customization. It is designed with 28 general and specialized pockets for everything from diaphragm mouth calls and box calls, to chalk pouches and a large rear game pouch. A ridged foam pocket protects friction calls while strikers have their own dual zippered pockets and specialized holders. The horizontal box call pocket has an adjustable buckle and is designed to be more easily accessible standing or sitting, instead of a vertical design that can be tougher to access.

The rear game pouch is generous enough to hold a big gobbler for the walk back to the cabin or truck. It also has a water bottle pocket and three internal general organization pockets for gear, such as a folding foam decoy, pop-up blind or tail fan. The Bull Lounger vest is available in Mossy Oak Original Bottomland and Nomad Exclusive Mossy Oak Shadow Leaf.

Field Tested: Federal Heavyweight TSS

Last year, I had the pleasure of travelling to the Yucatan peninsula in search of ocellated turkey.

Read on for my thoughts on this incredibly effective shotshell.
