When using a saddle does a wallet carried in your back pocket get uncomfortable or do you guys carry it in front pocket or a pack?

I can make it happen if I have my phone or something kinda small in the front pockets but it's not really comfortable. I prefer everything in a pack or dump pouch.

Only pockets I can access are my cargo pockets with my kestrel, and not even them with my trophy line. Best thing I ever did was stop putting my wallet in my back pocket and not just for saddle hunting makes life more comfortable.

I’m actually going to cut the buttons off my back pockets. I usually sit for about 4 hours on average. I adjust for a good balance between rock harness and sit drag. And get the bridge as high as I can reach.

Back pockets need to be empty as you'll feel the pressure of anything in them after a while. Phone should remain in the vehicle.

Posted this on another forum, but applies here too. Direct response to your statement about phones. Your opinion about where one should keep their phone is just that, an opinion:

Last fall (2017) we had a baby in my wifes family that was born critically ill. My wife was a bit of a hot mess, and I was communicating with the father pretty regularly. If that makes me a sissy, well, whatever. FWIW, the baby passed away, he held on for 9 months. That was 9 months of being a sissy and trying to keep my wife on an even keel and trying to keep other peoples hopes and spirits up. My nose isn't buried in my phone while hunting, but it is on my person.

In response to the op, I keep my bib pockets empty, everything is my pack or in a hand muff.
