    Blind Chairs - Krivo

    Need chairs for two new krivo's on new lease in Woodsboro. Will be two chairs per blind. For those with Krivo's , what are some of you using (will be two chairs per blind as wife and I). I went to Academy and saw what they got (in box so cannot try) and wondering what other options

    I don’t know if this helps but with two chairs I wouldn’t want arm rests on them !

      I go to the state surplus store in Austin. I bought 16 office chairs for the deer lease and they gave them to me for five bucks a piece. They were all very nice office chairs. They have arm rest on them and we don't have any problems hunting out of Krivos with them. I wouldn't say there's any kind of special chair to have in a Krivoman blind other than one you're comfortable sitting in.

        Two per blind? I’m in krivo’s all the time and with two regular office chairs ( mid size) there just isn’t much room left to be desired IMO! I’m pretty sure we are discussing bow hunting out of them and that is tight for 1 person much less 2! Op, I think you are headed in the right direction with those chairs you are looking at.

            I go to FB market place and find solid office chairs for $10-15. Only buy armless or those you can take off the arms. I have six boxes and two krivos with two chairs each from FB or Craigslist.

              It’s fine! They are made for 1 BOW hunter! Some people only have one window they can actually shoot out of so it Can work out that way! There is the Safety aspect in a tight quartered blind with 2 people also, I’m a fairly decent killer with a bow and I’m very safety conscious - that being said, I had slid down in my chair a little last year and a doe was close in- I released and hit the bottom window frame and there wasn’t a safe place in that blind- I don’t even want to think what may have happened to an additional person either side of me! Don’t think it can’t happen

              anyway - as Smart said , no armrests at minimal !

                  We mostly just use regular folding chairs. Prefer the ones with a metal frame and plastic seat & back from Wal-Mart. I RARELY get to sit with just me in a blind. Almost always have two people in them with NO issues. I do have some cool homemade chairs that use a swiveling boat seat and they are handy. But we mostly just use folding chairs.

                          Tha Game Winner portable blind chairs from Academy have worked for us. In my opinion, it's tough to have two hunters in one blind, but if you just want a second seat for a spectator that works fine. The deluxe model has arms if you prefer. Also, I always tuck a piece of cloth at every contact point when setting the chair up to prevent squeaks and creaks whenever you shift your weight (usually after my first sit, when I realize I forgot to do it ahead of time).

                            I use a plastic boat seat and swivel on a metal frame I had made. I’m with Chance, we have 8 of them all with 2 chairs in them. Most likely it’s only one bow shooter because I only open one window but I guess I could have two shooters if we wanted. I do see the issue of what happens if you hit the side of the window and the arrow going haywire inside.
