Pacseat mods: Putting the 'pack' in Pacseat, & other things
I'm with you. I support the business but a $225 chair should be right.

Yea I agree and it has a lifetime warranty other than the finish. I feel like it's a great quality chair but I also realize I'm paying for that warranty as well, so I'm going to use it.

Wanted one more weekend to hunt out of it, before i got the rivet fixed. Glad I did.
Took one this morning with the broomstick atop the pacseat. That was a first! The cleanup turned into a family affair. They loved being a part of it and so did I. Pacseat pack mod also performed well.
Good stuff
Oh boy. Yall pacseaters need this in your hunting life.
I expected to see a coffee maker, LOL.
That's next my friend
Keep it up and my Waldrop will weigh more than my climber....
Post #32 in this thread is what I've been using. It works well for both compound and stickbow.
I bought one after you posted it and like it. It works perfectly.

Posting this in case anyone missed it, @DaveT1963 has some excellent ideas about hunting from the pacseat, see posts 5 and 7. He also has some videos on making a ghillie cape .
Funny story...
My hunting mentor uses a folding chair from time to time (just got him into saddle hunting so he's pretty stoked about that) and the other day he took his chair into the woods with him. Sitting there he sees a doe come trotting by (the area we hunt is real restrictive on does this year) and he says to himself, surely a buck is trailing that thing. Sure enough a few seconds later, a buck comes flying in from behind her. The buck goes by so quickly my mentor didn't get a shot off so he got out of his chair and began running up ahead to get in front of them. After putting up a good chase he realized wasn't going to be able to get in front of them. He also realized he had run away from his chair and didn't know where it was. Took him a bit, but he was finally able to find it.
Since hearing this account, I put a wrap of reflective tape around the top bar (seat back) of my pacseat. Got too much invested in that thing to accidentally lose it somewhere.

Those ground cover stakes are the bees knees. So simple.
Evidently there are no ladies on here because I know they would have read the directions and saved them w/the box.
And now for a mod so simple I'm ashamed I didn't think of it sooner...
I'll post up some pics and videos of some "mods" I've done to mine soon.
Loving my seat more and more every year. In the last 3 days I've logged 25 miles with the seat on my back. Shot at 2 deer. Hit one and packed it 2 miles back to the truck. Easiest way I've ever done it
It makes it REALLY hard to want to climb a tree.
