Glassing in comfort

MuzzyMaddness · Feb 20, 2006

I am looking for few suggestions on a good light weight spotting seat. I glass from the seated position with a spotter & tri-pod. Any suggestions would be greatly help, thanks.

Check out the turkey hunting section in Cabela's.They have some lightweight seats in there that look pretty comfy.

I cut a piece of white ensolite foam pad from an old sleeping pad I had. It measures 10" x 14" and is just big enough for my soft b--. It goes in my day pack up against the back pannel on the inside when I'm not using it. It weights nothing & doesn't take up any space in my pack.

This is what I have. Its perfect. It will attach with velcro to the boottom of your pack and couldn't weight more that a few ounces. It is cheap too.

I've used a garden kneeling pad in the past but would like to updgrade in the current year. Keep the ideas coming.

Thank you all for your great suggestions. I am new to the art of glassing (two years). Glassing has added a great new dimension to my hunting experience (pre-season, season & post season).

Normally I carry a 1" thick closed cell pad to sit on. I have tried an inflatable seat, but it quickly succumbed to leaks. This past seacon I carried a Crazy Creek chair, which provided some back support. It also folds out to give a longer pad for those mid-day naps.
