    Hmm, ok. Reason I ask, not to scare you, is that I had a similar feeling (But more severe and with those symptoms) when i had my stroke.

    Blurred vision, weird head rush/head spin, dizziness, nausea, weak in the knees feeling, and horrible balance, followed by a strong persistent headache were my symptoms, none of which go with the traditional stroke symptoms or are included in the standard "stroke" test.

    Just makin sure!

    If you get one I assure you, you won’t be.

    I can sit longer and more comfortably in that seat than I can in the Summit seats and I’m almost 60.

    Couple that with how quickly and quietly the stand sets up and packs up with that seat and it’s simply a win/win.

    One thing to remember when you use it, and I know it’s common sense, but be sure and get accustomed to how much higher you need to position the platform using this seat.

    Raise it to where the nylon strap in the front isn’t putting pressure on the backs of your thighs when you’re sitting. For me, when I sit my knees are about level with the top section rail.

    Get the platform at the right height and this seat is the best.

    Yeah. That was my first thought when I seen that strip, I also got the foot rest to put on so that should help a little bit as well. Seems like a foot put to sleeper if you sit wrong. Be nice if it was a bit elastic.

    Curious since you mention knee level. Do you shoot from the seated position ir are you standing for what you expect to be primetime?

    I usually sit until I need to stand if I do, I shoot a lot while seated but that's normally ladder stands with no rail to deal with.

    The one cold morning I sat in the stock seat I didn't like the squeaking it made when I would adjust or stand up.

    Also wondering if the triangle back pad they sell is worth it or not.

    I’ve got about 6-8 different bucks on this cam since I set it yesterday. The big ones will soon be in daylight and I’ll be in a tree right to the top left of the cam.

    I never found the need for the back pad.

    the only negative thing about the hazmore is your butt might get cold faster.

    For deer coming in down wind it does work. I always use it in the low setting. It’s to noisy for me in the higher setting.
