I agree I like the taller ones too, but needed one I can more easily carry around & at 18" folded I made a sheath for it that goes on a belt to wear around my waist. When attached to my waist it hangs about6-8" off ground as I walk. To much to carry is what my problem is the xbow the trigger stick a blind a seat. So what I'm going for is the trigger stick on my belt the GhostBlind fits on my back in the game pouch of the turkey vest, my xbow is on a sling & the seat well for now I'm using one of those strap to your waist inflatable camo ass cushions I got mine at Dicks Sporting Goods but I might just get one of those short Turkey Thug hunting chairs that sit low. I also bought a ghillie suit by Red Rock (woodland) at a garage sale for $10.00 they go for between $40.00 & $60.00. Sometimes I'll wear the ghillie and just set in a chair with my xbow leaning partially on the trigger stick & my chair, as long as I sit still I look like a big clump of moss sitting there. I've had other hunters pass right by me sitting there plain as day & they were none the wiser.
