Here's another - some of these look like they'd also be nice to slip on when you're on a cold metal treestand and get some mid season boots warmer!

Finished painting my platform ladder yesterday. I think I'm going to use a sit drag as a sling seat but I'm still brainstorming on how to configure it. Shooting from it is easy and the extra height is just enough to clear the ground clutter.

I figured I'd revive this thread a bit...

Took my son up to my property in NW PA for opening day of PA Archery...no deer spotted, probably because on the day before, some foresters went thru the plot, marking the back property line & right-of-way for the owner of the property behind me-he's planning to log his land this winter.

I did see a large boar blackbear in the evening from this spot-caught him on my cell cameras this past August. It was almost dark, & I was folding up my blind & getting packed up to go to my son's spot when he showed up-I heard him first, then saw him when he saw me. He was walking towards me & we saw each other at about 15 yds or so. He turned tail & went crashing thru the woods.

Anyway, here is where I sat for most of the day- I thought that some out there might like to see a Ghost Blind in action- the first photo is from approx 20 yds away:IMG_3378.jpegand here it is from approx 10 yds away:

I'm also playing around with a small Torges tree seat that I can fit in the back of my 2TC backpack. I haven't had it out yet, but it will be an option to just take out and do a quick sit if I don't want to climb that particular sit. I made the seat a couple of years ago to fit inside my larger Catquiver compartment and I put an extra long rope on it so I can attach it to some very large diameter trees.

Anyone use those ultralight camping chair for ground hunting? Felt one today and it was crazy light and seemed comfortable. Put me in a good shooting position I thought.

I will be reading this thread this evening so if I missed this topic I apologize. Just trying to get a jumpstart on picking one out of so. Thanks!

I just picked up the big agnes stool. It’s stupid light. It is yellow but I figure a small piece of fleece and it’s covered and offers some insulation. Maybe a piece to lay on the ground to keep legs from digging in. And I’m going to stealth strip the legs. Should be sweet.
