Thread: Shooting sticks advice

Hey all. I came across a situation today where I could see two deer across a gully but the shooting rest options I had was tough with branches in the way plus about half a meter of undergrowth to contend with. As per standard, where there was a gap in the trees the ground was terrible and vice versa. My little Spartan bipod was pushing shit well up hill. Tried for a rest from off a branch but that wasn't good enough. If I was in a sitting position with a portable high rest I think I could have been in a much better place. I've looked at a few stories etc but never really thought much more about them. Anyone using these regularly and it would be great to get some feedback on what's good or bad if anyone has experience. Many thanks. James
