Well of course it happened.

It rained on Friday in Michigan and just as predicted, my seat got wet underneath my umbrella (torrential downpours at times).

Seat stayed wet until Sunday morning.

Why aren't these water-proof from the beginning?
(I should have bought the Ol'Man Climber with the "net" seat...doesn't stay wet for long).

Even with my gortex rain pants, I could still feel the dampness from the seat.
Had to wear the rain pants, which are a lot noiser than my bowpants until Sunday.

How do I water-proof the Summit seat without destroying the fabric and smelling it up like all hell?


Saw (1) doe with (2) button bucks on Saturday morning and (1) doe with (1) button buck on Saturday evening...that's all. I did not shoot. All deer passed within 2 yards of my stand!!!
