I am considering moving from a Oceanic tour back inflate not a jacket with removable front weight pockets to a Zeagle scout with no front pockets but instead two rear mounted pockets with a touch fastener release and a 20-LB maximum total weight capacity.
The Oceanic I have now also has rear pockets but I have never used them for more than a pound or two each and wouldn't fit more than that.
My question is this. What is if anything the benefit to having only rear weight? I really like then Scout and its real comfortable but would hate to get into it only to find out I need to have more weight in the front. I am sure a I could fit a pound or two in the front pockets.
Guess im looking for some general advice, ideas, thoughts, banter or whatever you would like to give on the subject to help me make a well informed decision before my purchase.
Thanks
Steve
