Knight & Hale Releases New Chest Rig for Turkey Hunters on the Go!
Knight & Hale introduces a new turkey hunting chest rig at the 2020 ATA show. When those gobblers get tough to hunt, it’s time to get aggressive and run and gun. Run-and-gun hunting works best when traveling light and only carrying those few necessities needed to fool a love-sick tom.
That’s where the new Knight & Hale RNG-100 Chest Rig comes in handy. The ultra-compact and lightweight design of the Chest Rig neatly and securely holds the most essential of gear while drastically reducing excessive bulk and restricting movement. With six points of adjustment, the Chest Rig fits tight to your body while positioning gear in front for reduced movement and easy retrieval.
The RNG-100 Turkey Chest Rig features a rigid front hatch that flips forward for easy viewing and call retrieval, while a magnetic snap keeps the hatch securely and quietly closed. Inside the chest rig you’ll find an internal striker holder and pot-call pocket, plus plenty of room for locator calls, gloves and face mask. There are four external mesh pockets for mouth call storage, an integrated box call pouch with elastic cinch cord and a large zippered pocket for hunting license, wallet or cell phone. The Chest Rig has fully adjustable straps with quick-release buckles. The RNG-100 Chest Rig is offered in Mossy Oak Bottomland camo and has an MSRP of $59.99.

When used correctly, turkey decoys can attract a nice gobbler into range, tilting the odds for success in your favor, but if used in correctly, they can cause that same gobbler to head for the hills.
