Instead of lugging around a cushioned seat, a good hunting vest pack should include a seat. Generally the back rest is built into the back of the vest, while the bottom seat folds out. This makes it easier and quieter to get seated in the woods.
Proper hydration is neglected by most hunters because there is simply too much other gear to carry around. The best hunting vest pack will have a pouch to store water, with a tube traveling to your shoulder so that you can easily get a drink.
Many pockets are essential on your vest, but you should not only consider the number of pockets. What are the sizes of the pockets and are they easy to reach? What keeps the pockets closed? Try to avoid Velcro because it is generally loud enough to spook the animals. Look for silent zippers instead.
Also, a small note, is to consider the vests camo pattern. Make sure the camouflage pattern matches your other clothing.
Finally, what type of breathable material is your hunting vest pack made of? Look for materials that block rain from the outside, but keep you from overheating on the inside.
By keeping these considerations in mind you'll be sure to find the perfect hunting vest for you!
