How do you carry your lounger chair?

Put a bow strap on to carry and replaced Velcro with a small dog collar to keep closed when transporting. Much quieter.

When I turkey hunt I use a DSD decoy

I use the strap that came with it. Gun on one shoulder, chair on the other. Very seldom hunt without it.
I thought it would be cumbersome and a PITA but I was wrong and it helps me sit still longer.

This thread is good timing for me, I had a pretty bad back injury earlier this year & I'm not sure if I can sit traditionally against a tree with just the vest pad, I do have one of the cheap low walmart seats but may try a lounge chair this year.  I've previously only used a lounge chair when hunting geese in the corn.

I use a strap from a laptop or luggage bag, similar to this one. Snaps to the eyelets for the original cheap strap. I had a chair and never used it because I thought it would be too bulky to tote. I hunted one morning after it poured rain the night before and I finally toted it so my butt and pad wouldn't get soaked. It was so comfortable I have not hunted without it since. I actually removed my vest butt pad which makes it even easier to tote the chair, especially with a good strap. I throw my shotgun on one shoulder and the chair on the other. I can sit comfortable for hours now and mine is just the cheap Turkey Thugs chair from Wally World. I let a buddy sit in it one morning and he went and bought one later that day.

this is pretty much what i do

I've got primos wingman.  It has a plastic clamp on a strap to hold the bottom back legs of the seat together when folded up.

To carry it comes with a simple strap with plastic clasps on a d ring at each end of the strap

If you took a strap off of something like a cooler bag or duffel bag it would achieve the same end. 

I suppose rigging some kind of conduit clamps would work at keeping the seat together too

Love that chair only complaint is if the back were 4 inches higher it would have better neck support and be easier to nap in

Comes in real handy on setting up in deadfalls. Plus due to health I have a challenge sitting on the ground / pad for any length of time

I took an old Claw sling and zip tied each end to the chair where it wouldn't interfere with opening and closing of the chair.  I also ziptied a ball bungee to one of the legs near the bottom.  When it's time to get up and go, I fold the chair and bungee it closed.  Lemme know if I need to take pictures of my setup and post them.
Sure, post the pics if you will...

Sorry for the delayed response.  Here are my additions to my chair.

i just recently got a "chairpak" https://chairpak.com/
the only camo option is the old military style but it is a backpack that folds out into a chair.  so far i like it much better than the vest with the seat

it will hold plenty and i carry my calls in a bag i can pull out and set on ground in front of me, it holds my 2 montana decoys and has side pockets for thermacells, etc.

update on this.... this thing is not meant to sit in for long periods.

I use a small bungee cord to keep it shut and my grandaughter made me a sling out of braided paracord it works great
