Has anyone tried Kuiu's brush pants? Not super interested in the vest, but the pants look really nice.

The ones I ordered for my daughter and I just came in last Friday so I don’t have any field experience with them yet. They are comfortable but I think the material they are using in the high contact areas is designed not to fray like the attack or guide do when something snags on to them pretty good. I was expecting something a little more heavy but since we haven’t really harmed the attack or guide pants with Ohio deer drives or PA pheasant hunts these should be the better option for longevity.

0 birds isn’t 100%
Shot or retrieved by the dogs?

I'm accountable for the first with 1 bang making 1 feather puff, but the latter is a not my dogs sort of thing.

That first rooster must have told all the others I'm a crack shotgunner because every other one got up outside of my safe zone.

When you knock a tail feather out of a rooster and it flies 3 miles, that’s considered a miss.

I might pick up a camo one and try it for turkey hunting. I usually just carry a backpack but it’s more than I need. Looks nice

I’m pleasantly surprised at the price. It’s cheaper than final rise or Pyke. It’s still expensive enough that I’ll wait until there are some reviews but I’m intrigued.

It looks like a good vest at a great price.

I bought my dad a Final Rise 2 seasons ago and have been eyeing it since. I have had the old Orvis Strap Vest for the past 5 years, been a good bag but need to upgrade.

I think I'm going to pull the trigger on this and see how it compares to the Final Rise Summit.

I run a Dogtra Pathfinder so I have my phone in my hand A LOT when I hunt. The traditional big pocket vests are best for that because I can drop the phone into a big pocket with ease. This vest has a solution for the phone which really interests me.

Please post comments/reviews as you guys use this vest.

@KickinNDishin had their new quiver since it came out and wrote about it.

I wasted a good two weekends trying to find a water bottle that would fit in the water bottle pocket. The video guy said regular nalgenes won't fit in those pockets. I see that two bottles come with it, but stuff gets lost. I wish they would list the diameter of bottle that fits.
