I know we talk about the best hunting blinds but I don't recall talking about the best hunting blind chairs.
I have several. From the basic folding lawn chair to the specific silent blind chair with arm rests. I really like the chairs made for blinds as the lawn chairs sit too deep for me to get on a rifle.
What is your favorite/best hunting blind chair? Why?
How many lies will people believe before they realize their own idiocy?

The soft lawn type chairs need a firm seat cushion to eliminate the deep dip and I find the armrests restricting to my movements.

Im going to be watching this post. Hope Im not stealing it.. Im currently using just cheap bag chair. Because it was cheap and handy. This last spring turkey hunting was my first time really using a blind for hunting. Other than blinds built in duck mash which is different deal. Being handicapped now i have to fiddle around to much getting in position to shoot. So used the blind turkey hunting and now for current deer season. My problem with bag chair is it sits to low for decent view from the blind windows. My son has me in his big 360 veiw blind and its nice. Plenty of room for me to flop around like a spaz. Need some kind of chair at least 6 inches taller than what I have now. Best if my knees are lower than my butt when sitting. Strong enough I can stand up with help from arm rest would be good. Back support would be nice and if it swivels be even better. Not planning to do anything anymore this season. For sure going to need something for spring turkey. Im not getting any younger or less crippled.

I have only limited blind experience as i prefer to be in a tree while i still can. That said, ive done it enough to realize if getting a shot when the time comes is your top priorty, then: swivel seat, firm so you dont sink in, and absolutely no arm rests. With no armrests I can drop a leg around the corner to swing right or left to get in position to take a shot. I like the folding cloth chairs because they are quiet. Like you no armrests for me either no advantage to them.

I have a deck or maybe It's a patio chair. It has a round base it's made out of some kind of mesh, and it rotates. It's got a nice high back and it's very comfortable. And very quiet. A good old metal folding chair would fit the bill. With a seat cushion and some type of insulation taped to the back would work.

I usually hunt Gov land, permanent stands etc allowed, so I use an Orange plastic bucket to lug my day crap in and to sit on. I keep a burlap sack in the bottom to slip over it for camo. On private land I drag a trash day wood chair in so's I can leave it.
