Not really interested in comfort when I'm hunting. I often stand with the seat part down around the base, but I have mixed fellings about the whole thing and haven't found a happy medium. I like being aggresive but it wears on me and I'm not enjoying myself. I like being comfortable but I'm unprepared to act quickly and quietly. I think I'm going to just limit my time in one. Did just that the last day of the season here by leaving before legal time was up. Saw a pile of white flags on the way out. I was a distance from the truck in an unfamilar locations and just didn't want to fight my way out in the dark, again. Comforted myself with finding a pattern to their movements. Next year will be better there if I return.

I'm kind of off topic, but I'm just avoiding tell you to stay on the ground, you know your limitations due to your size. Most ladders that are sold are only rated at 250, commercial at 300. Do you feel comfortable climbing ladders? I've never even looked at what a ladder stands, ladder is rated at, I've climbed some,my work ladders fell stronger. Just something to think about. No offense intended.
