Dove & upland vest

Dove opener in the valley is a heat hunt. You want shells up front, birds in back, and air through the mesh. This vest does that without pretending to be a turkey vest or a turkey vest pretending to be a dove vest.

The game bag wipes clean. The shell loops do not dump #7.5 in the truck. After a decade of openers the stitching is the first thing that goes — not the idea.

Wear it over a t-shirt in September and a hoodie in January pheasant. One vest. Done.
