Shooting Sticks or Bi-pod?

[WCTHEMI]

Which would you choose and why.

Would depend on for what, tgt/varmint shooting/hunting , or big game. So I pick both
Also like shooting off of a pack when stand hunting.

I only use them during the winter predator season.

I started last season off with the bipod. It cost me animals. Unless I was on even ground it was a big hassle. Changing position when the yotes came in fom the flank was a ##### too.

Once I picked up the shooting sticks, problem was solved.

I like using mono-pods. Handy as a walking stick, also as a light-weight mount for a spotting scope, and good for shooting off of.

Here is what I use....http://www.varmintal.net/abifu.htm

Easy to make and easy to use. I also use mine as a walking stick on the way in/out. Use the nails in the bottom to give your buddy a little motivation when he slows down.

I never go hunting without my Stoney Point Shooting Stix...never!

When I'm walking in the the woods I don't like to carry much, so I choose the bi-pod

 

[bronco_mudder]

I use a mono-pod as well. Light, telescopic to what ever height required and helps me hold steady for a shots out beyond 400 yards............reaching my comfort limit when shooting at game.

I have a mono pod and a set of shooting sticks. I really did not want to attach anything to my rifle (weight mainly) so I bought the M-pod last year, I used it once and didn't like it but I do plan to practice with it.
I bought the shooting sticks a few days ago when visiting SIR, I think I am going to like them. They are comapct and unfold quickly.

Both? THe garris stays on the gun, and the stix folded in my pocket

Ive got all sorts of Harris bi-pods, had shooting sticks but nothing compares to my snipepod I got on my last rifle. Its amazing, light , compact and great for shooting coyotes. You predator hunters should try it out.

I do prefer my Harris when Im in a gopher patch though

A design worth checking out if you are considering shooting styx is the Predator Sniper Styx.com (just remove the spaces in the name to have the url)

Personally I'd take both for predator hunting, because some locations may favor the styx and others may favor the pod.

Bipod it is hard to forget something that is attached to the rifle, when you get to my age, they tell me the memory is the 2nd thing to go, I can't remember what the 1st is.
Also less junk to carry around the better.

I have never used either.

I own a bipod.
