Vest by Any Other Name is Not the Same

In the turkey woods, turbulence and success are never bedfellows. With the exceptional vision and hearing of a mature longbeard leaving zero room for error, gear that bounces, bangs, or shifts during a move is unacceptable. As the 2026 season approaches, Blocker Outdoors® is reasserting the Finisher Pro II™ Turkey Vest as the premier solution for hunters who demand a tight, tucked-away, and silent loadout.

Vest by Any Other Name is Not the Same

Blocker Outdoors® Finisher Pro II™ remains the standard for consolidated mobility in the spring woods

MUSKEGON, MI (March 10, 2026) – In the turkey woods, turbulence and success are never bedfellows. With the exceptional vision and hearing of a mature longbeard leaving zero room for error, gear that bounces, bangs, or shifts during a move is unacceptable. As the 2026 season approaches, Blocker Outdoors® is reasserting the Finisher Pro II™ Turkey Vest as the premier solution for hunters who demand a tight, tucked-away, and silent loadout.

Mossy Oak® Greenleaf

The Finisher Pro II was engineered to solve the "bulk" problem, providing a concise and comfortable management system for essential tools without the footprint of a cumbersome, traditional vest.

"The Finisher Pro II isn't just about carrying gear – it's about managing it silently," said Steve Allie, Blocker Outdoors Marketing Director. "We've seen the industry trends toward over-built vests, but the demand for a platform that runs wide across the shoulders for weight distribution and stays tight to the ribs during a crawl never changes. This remains the workhorse of our turkey line because it simply works."

Field-Proven Architecture:

Strategic Compartmentalization: Purpose-built pockets keep box calls, pot calls, strikers, mouth calls, shells, and accessories organized and easy to access. The vest features dual elongated zippered pockets for locators and a dedicated vertical chest pocket for secure smartphone storage.

Specialized Access: The right-chest region is optimized with shaped mouth call holders and a specialty box call pouch, ensuring high-frequency tools are accessible with minimal movement.

The Shooting Foundation: A reinforced, detachable seat cushion features a water-resistant bottom for dry, comfortable sits in damp spring conditions, while the padded back panel allows for comfortable leaning against hardwood bark for hours.

Thermal Regulation: Lightweight mesh back paneling promotes critical airflow to help keep the hunter cool during long, high-exertion "on-the-hoof" hunts in warming spring temperatures.

Safety and Utility: An integrated, easily deployed blaze orange safety flag increases visibility while moving to help prevent misidentification. Once the tag is filled, the blood-proof rear game bag attachment allows for hands-free carrying of harvested birds, decoys, or extra gear.

The Finisher Pro II Turkey Vest is available in sizes M/L and XL/2XL. It is offered in the industry's most effective concealment patterns: Mossy Oak® Greenleaf, Mossy Oak® Bottomland®, and Realtree® Original.

MSRP $129.99
