Dang it Yukon Chuck now your going to make me purchase another one 2" taller.  I didn't know he could do that.     

Anything you all do for attaching decoys for turkey hunting?  I carry two, both Dave Smith decoys a half strutting jake and a hen.  Both are not the collapsable kind so they have some bulk.  I was thinking of just bungee strapping them onto the back of my seat or looking into the cargo net that Kifaru sells but will start with the bungee straps.

Darn me too! My only complaint about mine is seat is not tall enough. Didn't know that was even an option or I would have asked him to do it. Urgh!

Kelly,
I started hunting Whitetails in Michigan with a bow in the late 6O's......hunting the ground was Michigan's rule of law back then.

For lack of better options we used "seats" not even close to the quality of the Pac-Seat...and when we could see a deer approaching, we would normally abandon the seat...get down closer to the ground and move into position as the deer (hopefully) wandered into a spot for a shot.

I don't really think that you can position any seat perfectly for a shot when there are too many things that can change the scenerio...but you CAN be comfortable and quiet while you move into a good shot.

The PacSeat is quiet as a mouse...and comfortable.  What's not to like?

Absolutely the best (and most versitle) seat I have found...all around!   

I know dave uses a old backpack on his seat but might there be a popular pack that just fits the pack seat perfect?  I ordered a alpha hip pack to try but might check out the Kifarus because of all the cinch points they have,,,,,, expensive but I want the pack that goes on my seat to not dangle and to last as long as the seat.

Not sure how old "Yukon Chuck's" Pac Seat is but David now offers a seat 2 inches taller than the older version. He actually has an extension that you can add to your older version. Give David a call and he can fill you in. 

That is cool, never knew such a thing existed.  can it hang low on a tree also?

Just me: I can't see how it would "hang" onto anything...seems the design is specifically engineered for ground.  However, if you pm or email David, I'll bet he can give you some more insight.    And that could get his engineering juices flowing...I'd love a ground level "hang-on" seat that models the PacSeat in quality and comfort...who knows??

No need to hang it on a tree.  Just lean it against one.
Check out his website and videos.  Great seat and well worth the money!

So are these stand alone seats or do you tie them to a tree?

Free standing or you can lean on a tree or post. I have leaned it in a crotch of a blow down more than once. you can goggle it and watch a video on how it works.

Here is his newer 2" taller one compare to the original...

I had no idea there was an "original" but am delighted with my original.  Just playing around with my new Pac Seat I would opt for the original....definitely good (high) enough..for me.  I am 6'2" in stature but will most likely (out of habit) slip outta my PacSeat and find myself on knees and waiting for the kill-shot.  I hunt Whitetails almost exclusively and choose to never hunt over bait....just me.  'Fair Chase" appeals to me the same as it was in Northern Michigan in the early 70's. 

David, your PacSeat is about 25 years late for me (better late than never) However... it was worth waiting for...lookin' forward to comfortable and successful hunts going forward

I could have saved a lot of time, effort and money if I had found the Waldrop Pacseat before trying everything else "homemade" or sold on the market.

The only thing that I use with it that makes it as comfortable as my "Lazyboy" is an old fleece back pack that the zipper had broken on. I put together several layers inside it and hog ringed it shut. It's easily carried inside the pacseat. It adds comfort and height to my seat.

Staying awake in the woods became my biggest issue using my pacseat...lol



God bless,Mudd

Just talked to David this am, going to get the leg extensions for my old pack seat. Ain't getting ant younger and a bit taller will be a good thing on this old body. He really is a pleasure to talk to.

Talked to David earlier this week and the extensions will be coming my way in a few weeks. My bad knees will like a taller seat.

These are the extensions on the front legs...just 2" but makes a big difference.

They may be a nice product but I sure can't spend more than I did for my wife's living room recliner.

Thanks Jeff! 
I wondered how that retro-fit would be engineered.  Simple fix!!   

TTT

    I am thinking that hiking in a couple miles and than hauling out several pork hams has just been made much easier.      

David is the salt of the Earth type guy....

Absolutely no reason not to do business with this guy...
