What seats for ground hunting?
FlintWalker:
It may not be practical for shooting a bow. But I took one of those cheap green plastic yard chairs. The kind you can stack inside each other and cut the legs off. I left the front legs about 4" long and cut the back ones off even with the bottom of the seat.
I find it to be very comfortable and not very heavy to carry.
I especially use it for rifle hunting, since it puts my knees up to just the right height to rest my rifle on. Plus...you can lean back and it has arm rests.

i jist got to find an oak with roots farr enough apart to wedge myself in.
at my dads camp i always hunt sitting on the ground against a tree in a pile of brush. at my grandpa's there are stands that i hunt from.
Hillbilly:
I used to just sit on the ground or a log. Now that I'm old and decrepit, I bought me one of those closed-cell foam pads that hangs from your back belt loop. You never know it's there until you sit down and notice that your butt is dry and comfortable instead of cold, wet, and half-asleep from a rock or tree root poking into it. Best ten bucks I've spent in a while, and makes it a lot easier to sit still for long periods of time.

I have an old seat cushion of a chair , i stuff into my backpack. When i get to a spot i like, i take the backpack off and sit down. I also carry a hand prunner with me for quick blinds !

I am using the Niff-T-Seat right now. You can use this seat anywhere. It is the most user friendly seat i've used, but it is not very comfy. About two to three hours is about all i can stand, then i get moving around on it. Its just hard to carry any other seat with a back type quiver.
