Everyone needs a good stick!

Hey Scotty, great quote in your sig. Love that film. The Walking Dead season 2 is on next week for me.  8) (I guess you've seen it already!)

No worries....  and yea...   I'm looking forward to this season.

I actually thought Zombieland was Washington D.C. and not Tallahassee.  ???

We have a colapsable Easle here in the office, that i have been eyeing, as a set of sticks..  not only are the legs telescopic, but 2 of those legs have little fold up arms that would hold the art or picture board on the easle.  those litte arms are also height adjustable.  I am thinking that I could use just one, instead of the Bipod style, since it already has a place to rest the gun.

If so, why not just drop him a comment or look through the comments in his videos. He's always responded to me when I comment.

His sticks look to be fiberglass. Might be fashioned from old ski poles, just like the other member said. Watching some of this guy's non-hunting videos, he's pretty handy, so I wouldn't be surprised.

I too, would hate to shell out good money for something as simple as a light bipod.

The thin fiberglass poles are nice, he often just sticks them in the ground for storage when he's bracing the rifle on a gate or building.

2 bamboo canes from a garden centre and some twine is all you need!  ;)

i tried using twine at first but either it was too slippery or i just didnt tie it tight enough. i took it off and now use rubber bands. they're not very durable when they're stretched so tight so i'm going to use some old tire inner tube

Paracord is what I should have said!  :-*

Twine? Dunno why I said that? Must have been googles Twain homepage that brained my damage!  :D  ;D ;D

twine..  string... i dunno. whatever i used it was nylon and about 2mm thick. paracord sounds like it'd work pretty good i guess  :-*
