    First up, dont FFS me.
    Not everyone is a super duper hunter/shot like you.
    Youngsters, newbies, older frail people are quite difficult to get on to an animal. A tripod that adjusts to the ground at the pull ot a trigger and is free standing is brilliant for those types. I've had very experienced hunters, both new Zealanders and from overseas comment on how good trigger sticks are after using mine(Jim Shocky promotes them).
    They pack down to about a meter, and with the use of a make shift sling are very easy to carry around.
    Really your six foot manuka poles don't have a lot going for them in comparison.
    Overkill is still dead.

    Not a super shot, just proficient. My father, an ex deer culler/rabbit board supervisor, taught me to shoot and the army taught me their way. Shoulder reconstruction adds another dimension to offhand shooting. Anyway, when bush shooting there’s usually a makeshift rest handy if you need it. Open country I’ve often got a nibbie with me so don’t need to lay out money on other needless shit. Old I guess and set in my ways.
