JONO Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 I've been umming and ahhing about getting one of these inflatable field seats (Orvis do one for £18!) for pigeon and getting comfy whilst wildfowl flighting. Like a lot of folk I had problems sitting happily cross-legged at school and am finding that I'm getting uncomfortable as an adult crouching/kneeling/sitting whilst waiting for the duck to come in. Can anyone recommend a make or outlet for them or should I just shutup and "take the pain"... Ta Jono Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stirky Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 Try one of those thick foam kneeling pads that are sold for gardening duties, they are about 1" thick and about 14"x7" wide i bought mine from po@nd stret*&er for only ? ( there is a clue in the name of the shop) and they are very light and easy to put into your bag, providing its not full of duck or empties.

lurcherboy Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 The shootwarehouse do a bag and seat for £35-00. Its a drum with that special foam thats comfy for your piles. I have used it for months and its good. The bag is worn as a rucksack and takes all my gear except the lager LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apbuild Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 I've got one of Deako's seat buckets. It's ideal for carrying some gear in and also quite adequate as a seat in the hide. When are you going to produce a seat with a swivel top Deako? Seen one in a shooting Magazine and it looks like a good idea! Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JONO Posted October 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 Thanks very much Mike. Real nice of you. Ho hum Seriously tho' a mini inflatable seat so I can keep low to the ground sitting on my (apparently massive) butt... Ah buggrit - never mind.

Cranfield Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 Does anyone in the UK sell swivel shooting seats/sticks ? I have been looking for one for some time. Jono, I bought a waterproof bag, about 12"x8" and stuffed it with a foam block. I then put it on my adjustable shooting stick and sit on it. The bag came from a Fishing Tackle Shop and was called a "stash bag", or something similar, costs about £5. You could probably make something similar for a few pence.

apbuild Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 I see that Uttings sell a hide 'beanbag' in their cammo section. It is moulded into the shape of an armchair! Luxury or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norfolk.enchance Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 I use one of the seat covers you get from any sporting stadium. Although I've seen some with Tony Blairs face on. That would be kind of poetic. I always said he should kiss my a*se. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clanchief Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 I use the front seat from an old Volvo, ok its heavy to carry in my game bag but with a good coat of Dubbin on it the leather comes up a treat and can be left out in the hedge for months in all weathers,what ! what ! what ! and in the short luls you can recline it and nod off. lol .............im looking out for a Chesterfield chair to have on my pheasant shoot to place at my peg also as recliners dont have the back support for those high birds. clanchief Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JONO Posted November 6, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 Deako - spot on! May wait until a US trip before getting summat like that. Have just thought that one of those foam gardening "kneeler" pads might do just as well to keep me bum off the cold sod and theres less to go wrong than an inflatable one.. Thanks again jono Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stirky Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Go on jono, spend the quid, you wont regret it, or if your butts a bit big spend two quid (one for each cheek). lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
