KUIU Super Down Hooded Jacket Review

I have to say that when I first heard of the KUIU Super down line it got me excited.  I have been looking for a lightweight jacket to give me a little more warmth while glassing for trophy animals during the colder months here in Arizona and Northern Mexico.  I picked up the KUIU Super Down Hooded jacket right after Christmas, just in time to leave for Sonora, Mexico for 20 days of Coues deer hunting.  I wore the jacket virtually everyday while searching for the elusive grey ghosts.  At only 10 ounces the weight to warmth ratio was very impressive.  I really like the hood and it came in handy because we had unusual winds this year and colder temperatures than I can remember.  The jacket can be worn alone or under the Guide jacket.  Most of the time I would have it in my pack while hiking then upon arrival to my point I would just slip it on and start glassing.  This piece of gear will be in the starting lineup for many hunts to come.  Hats off to KUIU for continuing to push the bar for ultra lightweight hunting gear.  Photos by Janis Putelis

Mexico Coues Deer Hunt Video-Justin Franks Buck with Colburn and Scott Outfitters

Here is the video of Justin Franks buck in Mexico with Colburn and Scott Outfitters.  I arrived at the ranch a day early and spotted this buck and got a little video.  Darr and the hunters showed up the next day and Justin said he would like to pursue this buck.  He made a good choice.  Remember to watch the MEATEATER TV Sunday night the 27th of January on the Sportsmans Channel because Steven Rinella is hunting with Colburn and Scott Outfitters for Goulds Turkey.  I have seen the trailer and it looks like it is going to be a great episode.

Coues Deer Buck Video I with Colburn and Scott Outfitters

Check out this coues deer buck that we nicknamed "Gary the Goalpost". His eyegaurds are real long and the right one is starting to fork at the top. We kept him on the do not disturb list hoping he will blow up next year.

Check out this sweet 4X4 buck that James Weidenbener harvested with us in Mexico.  We had a great time with the two brother-in-laws, Justin and James.  There were a few words that sum up this hunt, "Shoot that buck!"  Congrats guys on two fine bucks.
