Seats

[Sportfury]

What seats does everyone use? I have some foam pads that I use for sitting on the ground, but they offer no back support unless you are sitting against something. I was looking at Primos' Randy Anderson Barkalounger. Does anyone have this or have used it or something similar? Cheapest I have seen it was $34.99 and not really sure I want to spend that much money without having some feedback first.

I just use the one I was born with..dont cost anything,and never forget it

[dbllunger]

Just a 1.5" dense foam pad.  Fits in the backpack easy or velcro it to the outside.

I sit on my back pack...works like a charm...

[bow4elk]

I use a foam gardening knee pad, approx 8" x 16" closed-cell foam.  Works great and is very inexpensive.

i use the foam pad cheap and stay warm the air ones always get cold

I thought this one looked good.  It is not right on the ground but isnt high either.

Right now I use my God-given seat, BUT after I get a new rifle this is the one that I would prefer. . .I just hope that I can catch it on sale as well!!!

those work good! the reason I dont use any is I always forget them,I dont take a pack in my set.I should tie it to my butt

[billythekidrock]

I have been using a turkey vest for most predator stands. The seat is detachable, it has pockets for calls and I can throw the ecall or decoys in the pouch.

I normally smash down a sage bush and sit on it.

I did the same in Idaho,good seat and good cover

[PolarBear]

Fir boughs or just my big ol butt.

I don't fold in the middle as well as I used to, so built up a seat that is about 13" tall, with a foam pad.  I attached to two molded plastic step stools ($3.95 each at Ikea) back to back. I glued some camo fabric to the outside surface to complete the effect.  Here is my ass on it:



I added a short length of parachute cord and wood handle (similar to the tote I use for dragging coyotes out) to make it less awkward to schlep around.

I've seen camo'ed 5 gal buckets with lids used before too. Same as a "duck" bucket. That way you can store stuff in it. Probably a little taller than your seat I wouldn't want to pack a 5 gal bucket 8 or 9 miles though. Especially if it was full of hunting stuff. Maybe for the shorter excursions.

I use the Nimrod Thermaseat.  No picture on their site http://www.nimrodpacks.com/index.html but it is actually a MSR bacpacking pillow tthat they have put inside of a camo cover.  It's one of those pillows with the air valve on it that you cna open and roll up pretty tight.  I hook it onto my belt but it can be hooked onto your pack or whatever.  I think they are around $40 and best of all made in good old Cashmere WA!

Big10gauge who has that Blacks-Creek pack on sale? That is a excellent price, I have been looking for a lumbar pack.

[tlbradford]

I have the Hunter Specialties turkey vest that has a detachable seat, and one of those duck hunter packs with the internal frame and a pad so you can recline comfortably.

cool idea ivar....

[robodad]

What I do is get one of those stadium seat pads like a foot square or whatever, it's just a 1 inch thick piece of foam pad and a hole in it for a handle, just tie a lanyard to it and to your belt and when your not using it, slip it up under your jacket. Then it is out of your way and it will help keep you warm as well.

we use these. they have some back support and they have about a gallon zip up pouch hanging off the bottom. I've seen them made in an extra large version as well.
