I haven't had many vests but the Tac Tater II from cabelas is a pretty well rounded vest. Its strong suite is exactly what yours is lacking, they have an excellent thick flip down cushion and a well backed back for sitting against trees with knots. The drawback of the padded back is that it doesn't breathe well in extremely hot conditions. The vest carries calls well and organized has plenty of pocket space. Box call pocket could be more robust to minimize noise and protect. I would rate the vest as on 8.5 out of 10 overall. My buddy has the tac tater I and similar seems to fit a long torso better and the II is better for a short torso, The II has a better pocket layout IMO. He also has the Kickstand, a little added weight but it's an excellent innovation for setting up on edge rows where a good tree might be near difficult to find. The added weight is also far less than carrying a detached chair and more convent as well. This might not be necessary for a timber hunter but hunting fields and brush country it's a pretty useful design.
A lot of guys like the super elite III and there are usually some killer deals you can find online. That vest is a bit lighter weight and thinner so I'd imagine it would suite a warmer climate.
