Abstract
An upland pack vest for hunting has a rear game pouch and an adjustable belting/strapping system designed to evenly distribute the weight of game loaded in the game pouch. The pack vest includes a pair of shoulder staps connected to the top of the game pouch and a hip belt connected to the inside of the game pouch. The shoulder straps are hung over the shoulders of the hunter and the hip belt is buckled around the waist of the hunter. A pair of adjustable diagonal straps connect the respective shoulder straps to the game pouch. A sternum strap connects the shoulder straps to prevent the shoulder straps from spreading as the adjustable diagonal straps redistribute weight from the game pouch onto the front portion of the shoulder straps. The length of the diagonal straps are adjustable in order to allow the hunter to adjust the fit of the vest.
