When these came out I was at Jays sporting goods and looked at the rack of these and than the price and laughed.. Thought no way could they sell these.. A month later I was there and they said they had folks calling from all over the country to purchase them.. I think they were 119 or so.. I should have bought the whole damn rack of um.

Dixon turkey vest?
Give around 120.00 for mine when they were introduced. Honestly wouldn't take 1,000.00 for it. Best I'll ever own.

I used to use the run N gun belt, until I tried on the Dixon vest at basspro years ago. fell in love with it and bought it. its the only one I have ever wore that I actually liked.

Had 1...Was well used and when the price got stupid...It went on Ebay and $450 Bought me a Obsession Gobbler Vest by Primos for $40 and I put the rest in my Pocket and I haven't been happier..They show up each year around this time on EBAY and the price just keeps getting crazier....The Limbhanger Vest is the EXACT same Vest without the legend of Bob Dixon on it......With the economy the way it is...If I had a low Number 1 I would sell it!!! I mean, It's a freaking vest!!!!!!

Re: Dixon turkey vest?
they are almost the same. small differences in them. one big one is the shoulder straps...the limbhanger has the padded ones that stick out. The Dixon has the claw straps which are just the bomb in my eyes.The SPURSUADER wrote:Sloppy_Snood wrote:Let's see a picture of the Dixon vest please.....what makes that vest "worth" so much loot?

I have a Crooked Horn vest I paid $120 for about 8-9 years ago. Still wearing it and wish I could find another. I believe they quit making them because I can't find one anywhere.

Not the best pic but only one I could find online. It has the retractable seat, etc. Starting to show some wear, but if anyone wants to offer me $500 for it I can send you my paypal information.
