    Never used shooting sticks so cant comment for them. I usually just sit on my ass, elbows on my knees or sit behind my pack with rifle across the top. If its a longer shot, lay down with rifle across the pack, or use bipod if the situation allows.

    Ive just purchased a bog deathgrip infinite carbon tripod while i was in the USA couple weeks ago. Have found lately alot of my shooting has been longer distances but in some situations i havent been able to take a shot because bipod wont work (too low, need the elevation to see over scrub etc) and wasnt comfortable enough to take a 4-500m shot just causally resting against a tree etc, so decided to give the tripod a go. Will spend some time with it at the range first but seems to be quite nice to use & its lighter than the previous deathgrip models.
