Couzer Report post Posted January 15, 2015 Ok I'm in the market for a sturdy lightweight 240lb capacity (I'm under the 240 pounds) chair/seat/stool that I can use for Glassing or Predator hunting. Like it to be at lest 12" off the ground. What is everyone using??? Any good chairs out there? I really like the tripod stools but the plastic piece in the middle the holds it together always breaks on me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

W.O.T Report post Posted January 15, 2015 a few yrs ago I got one from Dicks, it had a tripod style chair that was pretty sweet. Had a back & cup holder. Its probably still somewhere in 23 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rclouse79 Report post Posted January 15, 2015 This won't meet your 12 inch requirement, but I have switched over to using a z lite thermarest foam pad that folds up quickly. Fold it out in half and you have a nice big seat that is 3 to 4 inches thick. It also doubles as a nice alternative to the ground in you get sleepy and want to watch the back of your eyelids under a tree for a few. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Couestracker Report post Posted January 15, 2015 I like the double bull 3 legged stool with the back support. Plus I carry a butt pad and put it on the seat for extra padding. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZbowhntr Report post Posted January 15, 2015 I don't know if you can get them anymore but I have a Jim White glassing seat. It unzips and has a nice back support that you can adjust. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a few light weight stools, but went back to a cushy pad on the ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lv2hnt Report post Posted January 20, 2015 Check out the Roll-a-Chair >>> 4-legs and has back support you can use (or not - it flips over). VERY sturdy and comfortable sitting height for longer glassing sessions ,,, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
