Shooting sticks

[jxb]

This is almost like asking what kind of car you prefer, or beer, or whisky... It's kinda personal preference, cost, weight, ease of use in your type of conditions... Can be anything from two or three sticks, a boot lace, and some gaffers tape to a nice tripod with a leveling head either clamped or in a U mount.

I don’t usually use sticks, mostly bipods. But when preparing for a trip to South Africa, I was told to practice using them because that’s how it’s done there because of the terrain. I’m cheap so I made myself a set out of some bamboo that the guy down the hill has growing. Drilled holes and held together with a plastic zip tie. Worked fine and are lite weight, made a tall set and a short set.
