Adirondack, I used an old camera tripod to make a very servicable shooting rest. Paid something like $5 for it at one of the thrift stores (GoodWill or Salvation Army, don't recall which).

Thanks, guys, for the input. I took a ride to bass pro and put my hands on both the Vanguard tripods/bipods as well as the BOG tripods/bipods. In my opinion, they are very similar in quality. My only "must have" feature now that I have held both in my hands is the lever-lock adjustment mechanism rather than the twist. There is no comparison in the ease of adjustment – the lever-locks are far better.

I have used Bog Pod's tripod for the last 3 years in my ground blind in Texas. Very easy to use, light and very sturdy. I noticed that Primos has just modified it's trigger stick tripod, and made it lighter. I haven't seen it yet, but the reviews have all been positive.
