Ground stand seats

Ok i went through the archives and looked at a ton of seat that were mentioned. I finally settled on the millinum treestand seat. Ordered a couple for Christmas present and the are out of stock and doen't look like they are getting them in any time soon.
Now to my question I am looking for a quality seat for around 80 dollars or less that is light weight and durable and comfortable. Throw me some ideas please!!!

I have two I like. For long sits I prefer my Summit Trophy chair, very comfortable, even has arm rests.
For light weight, easy to pack and set-up, I take my Hammock seat. It is comfortable, not quite as stable as the Trophy chair but a lot less cumbersome to pack to distant hunting spots.

I finally went and looked at and sat in a Double Bull chair, the magnum, I think. I found it very comfortable and think it would do very well, even though it doesn't swivel. It's about 49 dollars at Bass Pro.

Check treeline treestands. They have a seat called the Stump.

Good Gosh, the "stump" weighs 14 pounds according to their website. My Summit weighs 6 pounds and the Hammock seat weighs a little over a pound.

Woodsey Too Lil Sit is my favorite ground blind chair. I have not found a more comfortable chair.

I'll second the Double Bull Magnum. It is well built, comfortable and if you shop around, reasonably priced. Mine gets a lot of use and I can sit in it all day.

I bought a swivel seat from Sportsman's Guide for less than $50. It weighs 11 pounds, but is quiet and comfortable, even has a back-can be set up anywhere, don't need a tree.

I have tried many ground seats and the one that works the best for me is still the 6 gallon plastic pail and a soft backpack.

This is one if my favorites. Took an old boat seat that still had the swivel and attached it to a 5 gallon bucket. It's comfortable, cheep and more stable than I thought it would be. I've sat for up to 5 hrs without a problem.

How are you going to be using it ? I have a BigGame treeseat that hangs on a tree like a hang-on stand . It has about 2 1/2 " of cushion and swivels . it can be set at any height you want and it helps you use the tree as a backdrop . I usually tuck it into some brushy spot and it works as well as any . It also allows you to move and set up quickly . Of course it wouldn't work in a blind .

I recently purchased the Millenium tree seat and so far I like it. Sets up quick and easy, and is real comfy.

For all day sit's I like the Huntmore. Can't beat the adjustable legs and swivel seat. For shorter sit's, I'll use my DB Magnum.
