[QUOTE="Leep, post: 12900, member: 3153"] Back in 1965 I believe i owned the very first pair of shooting sticks-- least in the part of Pa. where i lived then-they were the only ones. I have used them and others like them to take animals from Groundhogs to elk out to 600 yds. Go to any place that sells hardwood dial rods-4ft to 4 1/2 feet and drill each end-both sticks and then screw in four dry wall screws, cut the ends off with a hack saw. Lie down on the floor and set the sticks down and hold them with one hand-set you rifle in the sticks lying down and find the height that works for you. Mark them and drill them-put a small bolt through them with a washer in the center and at both ends of the bolt. Tighten the nut then cut the end of the bolt off and hit the end to blunt the bolt and keep the nut from backing off. You can shoot lying down-sitting or kneeling. Only thing you have to be carefull of is sticking your buddy while walking beside him- make a great walking stick too. Cost- about 5 bucks. Leep Out: [/QUOTE]
