Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Predators and Varmints shooting sticks

My "shooting sticks" are hanging from my shoulders. Long ago I ran thru the various shooting sticks, and come to the conclusion that elbows on my knees offer me the best solution, I always use a stool, no ground sitting. On a stool, I have good elevation to see, cradle my rifle in my lap, when shooting prop elbows on knees and I can easily raise up on my toes a bit for elevation if needed on a more distant shot. Sticks have been the cause of many a missed crossing coyote for me, invariably just when Im ready to yank the trigger on a passing shot, one leg will lift off ground and cause a slipped shot. Just one less item I need to drag out in the desert now, I have it pared down to my rifle, stool and a call, Im a happy camper.

same here. It's nice to have them self level on rough ground with the pull of the trigger.

Angler, where you get the piece that holds the V yoke piece...looks like a hard plastic U shaped that supports the yoke for the gun rest. I have the V yoke but need the piece to mount Yoke to....also the 2 pieces in the legs...what is that material? See how you put it all together, just need these pieces. Thanks.

I use two bamboo sticks held together with a rubber band. Slide the band up and down for whichever height you want. I use them while walking and shooting prairie dogs.
