Criggster,
They are much more comfortable the the thin pads that hang from
turkey vests. I bought my first fold out seat 3 years ago (HS Strut/Specialties) and loved it right from the start, heck, I even use it for squirrel hunting. It is so light I don't even know I'm carrying it...it can't weigh much more than a pound or so. It's also quiet when folding out the legs, something to consider when having to set up quickly on a close bird.

I was lured into buying a Buck Wing (w/the adjustable height on the legs) at my bowshop last spring. The adjustable height on the legs is a definite plus, however, they are very loud when snapped into place. I was able to "deal" with the noise in exchange for the comfort.....BUT, on the last day of my season, somehow I crushed the frame while sitting on it???
I got my gobbler, but have no idea how that frame crushed so easily? Oh yea, I weigh 165 lbs[&:]

Needless to say, I'm bach with my HS Strut
