Shooting sticks, poles or what?

RE: Shooting sticks, poles or what?
I made one from a camera tripod. Used for years and it is very adjustable. I only use it while sitting down and posted on stand. Its too cumbersome to use while still hunting.

Thanks for the suggestions and pictures. That helps. I think I will start with something similar to those on the Precision Rifle website.

I prefer bipods attached to the swivel studs. Most times I am able to get down and get the shot as the areas that I hunt are fairly open. For the off hand shot I make sure I have a sling and that really seems to improve accuracy with a good hold. A good book to read on shooting techiniques is called "The Art of the Rifle." I call this a PhD level lesson in how to really use your gun. Great tips and very helpful to answer the questions you just don't want to ask on here for fear of ridicule.
