    Whatever you choose, be sure to practise with it before going hunting.

    I learnt this the hard way a few weeks back. I’d been hitting gongs reliably at 380m, then took aim at a fallow 230m across a gully off my walking poles.

    The rest felt really solid, but the shot was a clean miss. The deer didn’t move far, so I tried again - and missed again. And then a third time

    I thought maybe I’d bumped the scope, so the next time I headed out I fired a test shot first (off my pack). It was right on.

    I can only assume that something about shooting off the poles changed my POI. I’m yet to confirm this but will do so at the next opportunity.

    Mate has a ripper setup, he uses a snipe pod http://https://kramerdesignscorp.com/V2SnipePod.html

    Really light and can stand up straight, and tuck the feet on his belt line and steady as.

    They are like tent poles, break up small and clip to sling swivel so easy to throw on and off.

    I have Snipepods too. Can get them in standing height as well

    I use the Triger Stick too. I have a two and three leg standing height, and a two leg sitting height. I use the three leg standing height one all the time when shooting with night vision. Awesome bit of kit.
