[QUOTE="Wy Will, post: 1003966, member: 47605"] Thank you for your input Jack. I could see how a bipod could be better than a tripod, especially in rugged rocky terrain. I just figured that if I needed to, I could still leave 2 legs together and only open up one leg so that my tripod is essentially a bipod. That might be more of a pain than I think it will be though. I might be asking for too much out of my gear. I was think a tripod because it would be pretty stable, but might be difficult to get all of the legs set up so they actually sit on the ground. I was going to use these for myself and also for my girlfriend. She is new to hunting and has only shot paper so far. She will only be shooting out to 300 yards and I am confident in her shooting that far. I just wanted something to help her have better stability, while keeping her rifle light(not adding a Harris or Atlas bipod) and then I can also use the sticks for my rifle and spotting scope/binos. I don't always plan on making a long shot. I hunt everything between sagebrush fields to thick trees. You never know what you will run into or how much time you will have to get setup. I was going to use the tripod as a monopod of quick close distant shots and then actually set it up when I have time to. A bipod might still be better though... I guess I am not really sure as to what I want. That's why I am on a forum trying to get different ideas and input. [/QUOTE]
