Those feet are going to SUCK in the field. It's bad enough when it has the right kind of feet on the Tripod stool legs that make the footprint of the feet a lil wider. But that one... with just those end caps... where I go that'd sink in something terrible! Maybe that's why they opted to put that triangular piece of nylon at the bottom? to help keep it from sinking maybe?
I recently acquired two other seating options. Both much heavier than my Tripod stool. But the Cabelas Blackout Turkey Lounger chair.... man.. that thing is NICE to sit in! Good back support. And it's very low to the ground to, which I like for where and how I'm hunting. I have a HUGE hunting pack so if it isn't an overnighter, I can afford to just stuff it into my pack for the hike-in.
Unfortunately, I can't sit directly on the ground very long at all. Not even with a pad. Due to previous Traumas on DirtBikes, and the fact that I have a desk job which exacerbates those problems too.
Definitely get a Klymit Kush cushion to go with the Tripod stool. AFter many hours of sitting on that stool, you'll need the addition of the inflatable pad to help alleviate the pain from where the stiching of the seams in your clothing has been mercilessly grinding into your flesh for hours on the sit. Being able to shove that inflatable pad in there sometimes for some extra cushion can be a God Send.
I'm bothering to say this because in the terrain type I goto for deer, I literally will sit there for at least 1/2 the day, and usually the whole day. Trying my best not to move the entire day because I'm on the ground and could potentially be seen by incoming critters if they caught me moving. I'm in heavy concealment gear, but movement is movement and will give you away. I almost rely more on hearing to alert me to them approaching most of the time because it's close to impossible to walk thru their without making sound, due to walking on the "Potato Chips" (aka the dried Oak Leaves)
