seats for blinds????
 

Just wondering what seat most use in pop ups or natural blinds. I have been using one of the three legged tripod seats with the triangle pad. Its nice for carring but gave me fits sinking in the wet ground. Is there a light, small, easy to carry or pack thats better than what im using?? pros, cons.

Dan, I am glad you asked this,as I will be buying an ASAT Blind from Scott..... How about some help guys??[&:]

I responded to you on my post, but the tripod seats are great for pop-up blinds. I think that they are too elivated for natural ground blinds so i use the little seat that i got at walmart that keeps me off the ground enough so that im comfortble, yet it doesnt put me up too high. Im not sure of the brand or any other info. Im sure you can find something similar on the internet.

I use a DB tripod sttol or a chair back seat I bought from Academy

PT, that's a decision you won't ever regret!

I use the tripod from Double Bull, but to be honest, it's not very comfortable and it sinks in the mud....Not a fun day of hunting if you ask me. I've used those fold out arm chairs, you know, the ones in the bags....They are terrific as far as comfort goes, but they are a little tough to shoot from....Not impossible mind you, but tough. And they are quite cumbersome to carry in....

That tripod has a few things going for it though. It's light, fits in my blind bag, and is the perfect height to shoot out of the windows.

i use a tripod one that swivels

I have been using the Eastman Outfitters High Backed Stool. Not quite as compact as the three-legged model you are using but more comfortable with the high-back.

Mo ... no doubt in my mind ..... i can't wait ... it will be an anniversary gift from my wife ..... she doesn't know yet though! ;)

I'm going with the small chair the NWTF sells on their site for next seson. I have a small tripod chair but it has no back on it. The NWTF seat looks perfect.

The HEIGHT of your blind chair choice is MOST important (in my eyes). It'll keep you from having to contort to get your shots off. Rob also had a VERY nice chair that he brought down that had a small backrest. If he'll post who mfgs. it......I'll order it.

Hey Jeff, whatever you were sitting in when Rob took those pictures of you nappin' musta been pretty comfy!!!

RE: seats for blinds????
 

Yeah, PT.....but my spidey senses were on full alert. I knew he was taking the photo as he was doing it.

THAT chair will belong to my wife in the morning. We're going hunting together for the first time ever, tomorrow.

RE: seats for blinds????
 

Mind outta the gutter, Germ. (it's too cold for THAT one....lol);)

She'll have on a black jacket and facemask......just like the other person in the blind the turkeys DO NOT fear.

RE: seats for blinds????
 

Haha, you guys crack me up!

RE: seats for blinds????
 

Thanks for ALL the info guys, i will check em all out. and the little humor mixed with it. :D

RE: seats for blinds????
 

I use both a tripod chair in my Ameristep blind and a bucket with swivel seat when using a permanent blind that I repeately hunt and can leave the bucket.

RE: seats for blinds????
 

Make sure you are focusing on the birds tomorrow Jeff .... gonna be tough for you I bet ....

RE: seats for blinds????
 

Good point Preach, make sure the calls are the only things yelping and purring:D

RE: seats for blinds????
 

Now take note Jeff ..... it was not I that crossed that line ... yes, I may have set up Germ, knowing he would, but I stopped short [8D]

RE: seats for blinds????
 

Are you kidding me, guys????

My wife's a BEAUTIFUL "lady"......but I'm already envisioning her in the UA full facemask she'll be wearing.....and I'm NOT getting fired up at THAT image...lol:D:D.

I'm also waiting with MUCH anticipation for her comments throughout the morning. I'm waiting for these:

"Is this REALLY what you do out here all the time"?
"THERE'S A TURKEY!"......no.....Crow.....sorry.
"I'm cold"
"I'm hot"
"How much longer"?
"That sounds NOTHING like any turkey I've ever heard".
"I wouldn't come to THAT call if the hens looked like Jenny McCarthy".
"How much did you say this blind cost"?
"Is that a new stabilizer thingy"?

And the list will grow.......:eek::D

RE: seats for blinds????
 

That is absolutely hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D:D:D:D

My wifes first and ONLY hunting excursion was spring turkey hunting with me and the boy ... ground blinds ... I heard MANY of those statements!!! Man my eyes are tearing from laughing!!!

I couldn't find a chair that was comfortable enough for me and compact enoughuntil I started using a childs fold out chair from walmart. It seems to still be holding up with a 150 lb weight limit. It has a back on it and is alot easier on the" boys" than the tripod chairs. I also like it because you sit a little bit lower and it is easier for me to shoot out of. I bought it for about 5 dollars. It also has a nice little campfire scene on it to boot.
