Anybody use a rest or shooting sticks for hunting?
I have seen it done with handguns. Haven't done it myself. Looking forward to comments about how well it works.
I have the tall and short Primos Jim Shockey Trigger Sticks and work really well. The real downfall is the are way too expensive
Thanks

Picked up one of the extendable ones that gets to about 6' or so. Use it when checking loads for accuracy mostly. Works great with all my pistols, revolvers and rifles. Wished I had it back when I was hunting.

Yep, this brand is one of the nicer options, but for aprx $115.00 for the tall version and $50 - $70.00 for the shorter ones, they just seem expensive. I will say that they have worked flawlessly and have gotten me several deer with my 10 : )

I have the Cabela's house brand. I use them for target practice and they help a bunch.

I have a pair of cross sticks I made for shooting from sitting or knealing. There is a cut of nail in the bottom so they will not slip in dirt.
I have a primos stick also but have not used it for pistol yet.
Actually what I have done the most of for years is to cut a sturdy sapling with a Y in it. I always have ratchet clippers in my pack and it just takes a minute to make one. If I am walking and stalking I will cut it to lenth and use as a walking stick and then a shooting stick of the correct height for a standing shot.
I cut it shorter if I am going to be sitting.
