Vince1 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 saw a video of a guy using this recurve hunting, also had a hips blind. kinda wasn't sold on this seat as I just cant see it being all that stable and ordered one of those stadium seats instead and find it comfortable enough. wanted to get the HIPS blind but at 100 bucks I could make something myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeus1gdsm Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Grabed a 10 minute snooze in mine in the field this morning... Zero. Action today and I was in an hour before sunrise. No gobbles no nothing... Trying 2 brand new in scouted locations next weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tree trunk & your legs make a 3-point stance which is the most stable. Yes, it is possible to shift from side to side, but if you keep your feet planted & push your back into the tree, it is very stable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeus1gdsm Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I do find a wider tree allows for a more comfortable sit as it spreads the fabric better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolc123 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Thanks for the Amazon link. I just ordered one. I cant wait to use it this cross-bow season up at my in-laws Adirondack camp. The light weight and easy to carry feature should make it great for packing into the mountains. It's going to be hard giving up my "lucky", red , $19.99 camping chair, but the ability to swivel, and ease of carry of the new seat will help with that. I just picked up the mount today of the buck I shot up there last gun season using the old cheap but bulky red chair. I hope to do even better off the DR from Amazon this season. It does look comfortable and it should allow me to go deeper into the woods if need be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
