Best turkey vest?

I have one from Bass Pro I bought two years ago. I gets the job done but the seat cushion is almost nonexistent and trying to reach the pocket for my box call requires more movement than I like to make. What does everyone else use? I've seen the ones at Cabela's that have nice seat cushions.

I use a primos vest. Has tons of pockets for calls, gloves, masks, shot shells and everything else. I also carry decoys in the rear pocket. Only bad thing is it can get hot.

My vote goes to Cabela's TATR II tactical vest with the built in lounger. Makes running and gunning extremely easy. I've got a bad back so leaning back against a tree for several hours a day won't cut it for me.

I have a primos. I hate it. Too hot. Less is more for me on the next vest. Use a lawnmower inner tube to sit on. More comfortable than any seat cushion!

I bought an Old Tom vestless hunting shirt that's as "less" as you can get. It's basically a vest built into the shirt, but about half the shirt is a breathable type mess. It has a pad built into the spine. That part is kinda uncomfortable, or rather annoying, but it's probably because I never wore an undershirt under it. I'd give it a 7 out of 10.
