I sit on a swivel folding chair in my permanent tree stand. For those of you using a 5 gallon bucket, you might want to try a lawn tractor tire inner tube that is less than fully inflated. When I hunted ducks out of a barnegat bay sneak box for ducks you sit on the floor of the boat and the only thing we found really comfortable for sitting for hours on the floor of the boat with your legs stretched out in front of you was a lawn tractor inner tube. It cannot be fully inflated thugh because it will become uncomfortable, you want it inflated just enough that it gives but doesn't allow the top to touch the bottom of the tube.
