I have owned nearly every model of Double Bull blind dating clear back to the original blinds of the late 90's early 2000's. I have a collection of unopened Dark Horse blinds in the storage loft in my barn because I still feel that it is the best DB blind made for my hunting. So it takes a lot in a blind to get my attention. When I walked up to the OX 5 blind at the show I was flat out impressed. This blind is really thought out and improved on some of the Dark Horse features in my mind. The stubble straps are a huge improvement (I actually custom installed them on one of my DH blinds). I loved the door zipper as well, as it eliminates what was a tear point in the DH blinds. The material is awesome. The window adjustment is spot on. And the thing is huge. The only downsize is the weight (they list it at 33#), but that is to be expected with a blind of this size. This will likely be the first non Double Bull blind that I buy in over 15 years.
