Default seat

Because I have problems standing for any length of time I was in Wal-Mart and found a fairly heavy 24" high bar stool. Boy did it feel good - about the right height. I also bought some almost head less screws. They take a torx bit driver. I just got done running screws in the end of each round cross brace and down through the seat into the legs. It should stay together - test it tomorrow shooting some trap. Only problem is my Parker SBT is at a guys house who's going to redo the barrels. Have to use my 1894 Remington F grade trap gun.

So your going to shoot trap sitting down? Does the seat swivel?

Rick, that's a little high end for this poor boy. I shot trap the other day from a regular height bar stool and it seemed ok. If this short one doesn't work I'm only out 18$ and the cost of the screws. Rich, you're getting at that age, you may want to try it out.
