anyone have a good way to make shooting sticks? i was thinking of using half inch dowle rods 3 foot long or so...using a bolt or something to hold them together.....and putting a rubber hose over the top legnth to protect my stock.....putting the hole 6 inches down from the top.....sure it would work nicely....but maybe you guys have better plans for making them or something....i just want something cheap to steady my rifle till i buy a bipod....i dont want to spend alot of money right now becuase im trying to pay the truck off before hunting season so i can hunt more and work less! lol....then ill buy a bipod and all the other things i want....till then ill make due with what i got.....anyone have any advice on making them...dimensions and materials ect......thanx alot.....
