Title: turkey chair
Post by: dan_lais on Apr 11, 2013, 04:24:44 PM

I just picked up my Turkey Thugs gobbler lounger from Wal-Mart yesterday.Had it shipped site to store and it looks very similar to my cabelas turkey lounger.i will never hunt without one because the chairs are so comfy.my cabelas one is on its 4th year and is hurting and been modified.was hoping some things got changed like longer straps and no Velcro to hold it shut.use bungee or magnet.and they need to not use aluminum where the strap hooks to and holds.anyways i paid 10 to 15 dollars less so i will use the new one and report how it holds up for all you gobbler lounger users.

i will work on that today guys.but just to explain they are like a beach chair sitting very low and angled back a bit to put your knee right in position to steady your elbow on to shoot.i have also used it to kill deer.pics will be up in a bit.

Have one that is very similar, they work great and real easy on your back.

I used a strap for a duffel bag and it seems long enough and wide enough for comfort. this chair says it holds 225 but my dad is bigger than that and his chair held.Trust me the extra weight is worth its carry.if we r running and gunning this is not what we choose to carry but for early morning waiting for them to come down its great.it also keeps ya up off the wet cold ground too.
