As the heat comes on, Is there an embrella that fits on the Caldwell table?

I'm from Oregon and we don't get to see the sun that often. I've searching for an umbrella that will attach onto my Caldwell stable table shooting table for easy on and take down.

Here's a tip from the guy who invented the BR Pivot (and Stable Table).....any umbrella attached to a bench will transfer any wind movement directly to the bench, making any reasonable degree of accurate shooting almost impossible.

Get a four legged sun shade like Quik-Shade that does not touch the bench. MUCH better, and you can move it to stay in the shade all day.



After 52 years of shooting rats, I may now finally have it figured out......

I agree with Rick in Oregon, DO NOT put an umbrella on your table, the wind will keep you from getting a steady sight picture.

We take the other approach, lots of sunscreen, long sleeves, and a hat that will protect the neck and ears from the sun. I wear something like this:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006HV5MBI/?tag=accuratescom-20
The other guys wear a wide brimmed boonie hat.

Both replies above are correct. You’ll regret the day you attached a sail to your bench/table. A free-standing tarp (commonly known as Easy Ups) are great as long as they are very securely secured. Other than that long sleeves, boonie hats and sun screen work pretty well.

I used an umbrella (not attached to the bench)one year and felt it was too much hassle, went back to sunscreen and hat

Thanks guys. I just ordered a quick shade and cap.
