keith wakefeild? best there is?

[GregMik]

Get a Pineo vest. Best there is for the money. The only draw back is that the straps for the vest do not disconnect in the front so you have to put your bird down to rmove your vest. http://www.pineofalconry.com/

I'd have to say pineo vest too, I also have the huntley... is a good vest but a bit big, I'm thinking of selling mine if anyone's interested. The pineo vest also has a poppered top to the game pouch so you can carry your telemetry easyer.

I believe Ben Long does an exact copy of it for £50, haven't seen it though.

The best vest is the one that u make yourself. I bought a canvas karki vest from the local market in fat lads size. I custom butchered it with the adments of various pockets, zips, etc and wey hey, blue peter.
Its cushty and does the job. best of all I have everything where i feel i need them and not where someone else has decided to put them.

Doug Pinneo vest he designed it and the rest copied his design. Back the guy up it was his brain behind it and he deserves to earn some money for his work
I ahve had on for 3 years wash it and it's like new

[OutFlying]

Doug Pineo,top bloke, good service. I'd ordered a glove from him, delivered in under a week from the states - first class service. Used his waistcoat for 2 seasons now - still like new after a quick machine wash. Swivel is also first class especially when used with a loop leash.

hey HM, have u any pics of people wearing them? i rmemebr u did a few pics on another thread, but that was so long ago, and im a big fella lol, will it fit me? and if ordered within the next day or do will it be here for christmas(sister has offered to buy lol). im not saying that im buying, but i like the price, cant have my sister forking out on dear stuff lol

[Hawkmaster]

I will email you some and you should not worry about size, I am 20 stone and I still manage to get warm clothes on under it comfortably. It also can be made smaller mainly for the fairer sex! :wink: Postage is either next day but costs more and the cheaper option is recorded and does not take more than 2 days to you.

[Sean]

right, waiting for pics to come through
