I hunt a lot out of home made tree stands. What I need to come up with is some type of folding chair that straps on to the tree and can be moved to another tree stand. It needs to be able to fold up so when you want to stand up to either stretch or make a shot you can do so. Anybody have any ideas. The last two years I used a 5 gallon bucket screwed into the stand. This was alright except when you wanted to stand up you couldn't lean against the tree so you didn't stand out so much.

let me be the first to welcome you to the club. you will be amazed at the knowledge here.

go to www.treelounge.com they have a chair that straps on the tree.

API and a couple other manufacturers make a seat that straps to a tree. Most of them you stand and just push back with your legs and the raise out of the way. Buckets are noisy and an accident waiting to happen just about the time Mr. Big shows up. Besides that.... they're too short. For bow hunting you need something higher.

the tree longe is what you need.

Well....I use the climber that went to my old warren&sweat. API and Summit both make seats that strap on to the tree.

I have a friend that takes me to his hunting club a few times a year. They have built 4x4 tower stands that have office chairs in them. Talk about having it made!
