Hunting seat
« on: February 22, 2020, 11:53:14 AM »
Can anyone recommend a lightweight, hopefully inexpensive hunting stool or chair with a swivel seat for turkey hunting?

I bought a 3 legged stool with a back from Rogers Lures that aint bad for the cost. Swivels pretty nice and quiet, not super comfy like your recliner but can sit it a couple hours easy.

Can't remember the name of it but its a lot like this one.......

First one in lineup
Stay sharp, Kenny.

I picked up one of those rectangular flat lawn chair woven stools that only set a few inches off the ground from one of the big out fitter chains  I can swivel 180 Deg quietly and comfterable enough for a 4 hour sit it's very easy and light weight to carry !

Thanks guys. Kenny, that chair is made by Alps Outdoorz. It’s on sale for half price at Rogers. I e-mailed them to see if they ship to the great white north.
Ritchie, are you talking about those folding stools with the back legs a bit longer than the front? I have one. Can you shoot a bow off one of those? I have trouble drawing if I’m too low.

I think mine is the same concept but the legs are level I use mind for blind hunting with my 64" thru 58" bows with no issues but I'm pretty tall and a lot of my length is in my upper body (oh boy wait tell Roy reads that) but I shoot at a pretty fair cant there not as comfterable as the stools ! And I think they where really designed for shot gun !

Mine has 3 or 4 adjustments on the leg length, so you can level it up .  I did add some round plywood to the feet because it sank in the mud sometimes...
Stay sharp, Kenny.

I’ll have to try shooting off my low seat, but I do like that three legged chair.
I’m thinking of getting something like a bullhead stakeout blind to go with it.

My new blind is pretty small got it on a cyber Monday deal so I have to set low to get clearance but like the light weight I think with all gear still under 20lb bow every thing If I didn't have to hike in I would have a big one and lawn chair  :laugh:

The bucket with a swivel seat would be an inexpensive option, but a bit bulky to carry. Especially where I hunt turkeys. It’s really hilly and I need one free hand. I’ve had a couple of wipeouts in those hollers. 🤕

Ok smarty pants, that’s not such a bad idea. One of those swivel seat bucket lids on an old stump would work. 👅😁

I have a couple of folding stools similar to those. My old hunting partner and I shot a lot of ducks off those stools. 😊
