Jim, I have a millennium seat--just like the looks of yours a lot.

I want to use it more for still hunting then a actual ground blind seat. 15 maybe 20 minutes then move on.im still a treestand hunter 95% of the time. This would be a scouting /hunting seat.

I use mine all the time. They are great for quick impulse sits when you just happen to find yourself in a good spot with no time to prep.

I made a couple myself. Had the material on hand or it wouldn't pay to build it your self. anyway, they are very versital seats. Just lean it against a tree and sit down.  Couldn't be simpler.  You can lean it against a fence post. Or round hay bail. Even lean it against your truck tire for a quick sit.

Got the seat and tried it out. This seat will change the way I hunt. I will be hunting some woodlots I couldn't get my treestand in.My goal is to be more mobile and hunt more from the ground this year.It's May but I'm already excited.

Yep - love these seats.  Here was my setup last fall. About 10 yards off of a trail that looked like a Deer Highway.
 

Here is what I saw on that mud trail that had me sit in that spot.
 

After sitting there for two hours, had a buck start to come towards me on the other side of the thicket. I grunted, he stopped, winded me and then snort-wheezed and ran off!  It was and exciting encounter on the ground!  I'll be back at this spot next season for sure.  I love this seat!

I tried mine up against some stone walls. I also tried it on a root ball of a big blowdown. It's great looking for all these hiding spots,like a kid!

Bought mine couple years ago. Added a foam cushion and I can sit still for hours. Sorry no pics.
