Shooting sticks


Recommended Posts

I currently have a single leg Primos stick. I'm a bit wobblier then I like. I'm looking at the 2 or 3 leg and cannot decide which I like better. 3 is the most stable but it seems like it might be a little more hassle getting it set. I will primarily be using it out of a ground blind shooting from a seated position. 

 

What's your guys opinion?

100% the two legs.  You lean it towards you a bit and if you're sitting it's rock solid.  My son shot his first deer at 180 yards with the two leg.   Sets up in less than two seconds.  Once, elk hunting, I used a three legger and that third leg posed two problems; it wasn't needed and got stuck in the ground screwing up the other two legs when the pressure was on.  I figured it out but didn't need that issue when it was "go" time.  The three leg turns it into a Rubiks cube, why not five legs?  Just kidding.

I was kind of thinking what you're saying. 

 

Thanks

I use two legs and won't go out without them. Way better than free hand!!! One set is the adjustable length type. Kings Mountain if I remember right. The other set is bamboo with the hinge and rubber strap. I use that one primarily for varmint hunting as it's nice and light. 

The reason I like the two leg is they can me rocked back and forth if you need a slight adjustment. You have some more difficulty doing that with the 3leg variety. The other part of the two leg is you can leave the legs extended as you walk and in the event you don't have time to open them you can still use it as a single pole. It's not as stable, but it works.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
