Title: Niff T Seat size?
Post by: Mojostick on March 12, 2009, 06:28:00 PM
I'm going to order one soon. I think I want the tall, since my legs cramp if I sit too low. Anyone else have the tall size?
All are portable on the belt, correct?

I've used a Niff-T-Seat for several years for archery and what-ever.  Great seat!  The model that I have has the 6" and 11" poles.  Most of the time I use only the 11".  I can assemble both to a 17" height.  I think there's a 22" pole, but for me (5' 8"), that would be too high.  Yep, belt portable.

Back when I got mine they only had the one size with both pieces.

I have to admit that I almost never use both pieces but I have on a few occasions.  To me it's one of those situations where its better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.  And of course it goes without saying that regardless of the fact that I seldom use both at once, I ALWAYS need to use one or the other and seldom know which one will be needed until I get set up.  On flat ground it's usually the longer of the two but on a slope facing downhill, the short one is about right.  I've used the two together when setting up in higher weeds while gun hunting and while set up in a ditch or depression bowhunting.

You're gonna like it for sure.

I have two of them, the one withthe two different sized poles. I love the seats, but find they creak a lot when you shift your weight. The metal bar that swings out to open the seat pad bends and goes through a small hole. The metal- to- metal contact at that point is the source ofthe noise, and I have not been able to get it quiet. I wish they would make them with a replaceable plastic bushing at that point, as that is really the only wear point on the whole seat.

I usually use the 11" pole with mine.  It is a very nice seat. I just wish I could sit in it for more than 45 minutes without it killing my behind.

I use both poles on mine when elk hunting.  Makes a good quick setup when calling bulls.

I have the one with the two sizes of poles and usually use the longer pole.
