I know its been beat to death, but I'd like to get updates from folks that are using summertime hunting vests. What brand are you using? What are your likes and dislikes?

The only ones I've been able to read about are:

Nite Light
Brite Eyes
Dan's

I just bought Briar buster from http://www.sportdogsupply.com/catalog.
Love it. I got one right after he got them. Happened to be at his house. Tom the owner goes by Topdog on the redbone board. They're not listed yet. So just send him a pm if your interested.
They have a pocket for your garmin, Shocker and water bottle. A belt for your belt light. A big deep pocket and another small pocket. There is no woven mesh on these. I can bust brush and not get cut up thru the mid section with it.
There is a game bag option for them also.

i have the dans. it has a pocket for about anything you want to take with you, even an insulated water bottle pocket. the light seems to ride a little low on the side and it is pretty hot in the heat of the summer. in medium to cool weather it works pretty good and briarproof.
overall it is a pretty good vest but could stand to be a little cooler, maybe a mesh back would help
