I had a couple of Eskimo 3 legged folding chairs the last couple of years and give them a big thumbs down, very uncomfortable. I will be watching this thread.
the three legged chairs ive tried bust my balls all day.jmo.
Not all of us have stones like a bison Jay. DN
Have you tried the Eskimo XL version?(Image removed from quote.)
Cool, just know that the shooting arm and Primos trigger stick mono-pod DO NOT come with the chair as pictured. The shooting arm is like another $45 and the Primos Short Trigger Stick is $60ish when I bought them. It makes for a VERY EXPENSIVE shooting chair. I purchased the whole kit & caboodle for the Ravin x-bow I bought a couple of month ago.DN
It seems the more comfortable the chair, the less 'fishable' it is....In otherwords, I dont like to be sitting too low, so I can get in and out easier. I like to be leaning up to my hole, so I can watch rod tip and sonar, etc....This is why I continue to plop my posterior on a bucket...I actually have a bucket in a bucket to give it a little more height......but I'll be watching this thread as well for that perfect chair....there has to be one our there somewhere.
Yup---I always refer to them as ball buster chairs!
Harbor Freight dirctor’s chair for me. Live that thing
The Millennium G100 pulls double duty as my hunting blind chair and my ice chair. Yep, it's expensive, but very comfy, fully adjustable legs, and being an all aluminum frame, weighs only 7 lbs. The tri-pod leg assembly detaches and is stowed in a pouch under the seat for transport and has a sling for carrying over the shoulder if needed. Read the reviews. It's a very well made, very nice chair. https://www.amazon.com/Millennium-Treestands-G-100-Blind-Chair/dp/B00HEQOTV4/ref=pd_ybh_a_22?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=J3RG4K39274DH0VEGE03DN
In the interest of simplicity I tried a 3-legged stool some years ago. Picture about 6" of crusty snow on top of the ice. At one point I twisted around to pick up my ice skimmer, lost my balance and went over backwards, waving arms and legs, into that hard snow. Already limited by a heavy parka and bibs, I was like a turtle on his back. I simply could not extricate myself from that snow bowl I'd created, couldn't roll onto my side and then onto my knees. Finally had to use my legs to kick and push myself up and out that bowl so I could roll over and get vertical again. There were a couple of guys fishing about fifty yards away who got to witness some cheap theater. The 3-legged stool found a new home at Goodwill.
This is the best chair I have used yet. I have tried Coleman camp chairs, 6 gallon buckets and Eskimo three-legged chairs. The Coleman is most comfortable, but pretty useless for ice fishing, because you lean too far back into the chair. The Eskimo is pretty much worthless. The bucket is good for short periods of time.
