Ok, Guys....my new sticks came today....AWESOME!! No, I don't know the people who make them, no I don't have part intrest in the company... They came today, bought the 36 inch ones for sitting, and they included a 12 inch set for prone use at NO CHARGE. They 36 inch ones are called "Coyote Busters", and I believe they are perfect for what I need. I have been messing with them and am very impressed. The quality is topnotch....ease of use, weight, everything is just perfect. They have rubber "feet", for a no slip situation, they are rubber lined at the top so as to not scratch you rifle...the are quick, smooth and just right I believe if you are looking for shooting sticks these cannot be beat for the money. Most of those I have looked at are almost twice the price of these....19.95 for both sets...and 6.00 shipping. cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3657121721&ssPageName=MERC_VIClosedWinner#ebayphotohosting I give 'em 5 stars Joe P.S.- I hope it was OK to tell y'all this on the forum. It is in no way a commercial venture for me...I just found something reasonably priced that works well, and wanted y'all to know about 'em.

Hey Joe,
Thanks for the feed back! Let us know how you like them in the field when you get a chance to try them out. As far as a "plug" and/or posting a link.......guess what? We appreciate that here at the Posse....one hunter helping another.
Good Hunting,
Bob

I bought the same ones from the same guy and they work well. You can spread the legs to different widths to adjust the exact height that you need. After several months of use the o-rings at the top that hold them together had to be replaced. I just went to Home Depot and bought more o-rings for pocket change and was good to go again. I missed the deal with the prone sticks though

I think castration bands would be great for the top when those wear out...... Thanks Bobcat...I didn't want to over step my bounds

Very much like them.....too much maybe. They work the same way, much the same material, only the fiberglass rods in these are much thicker walled than any of the tent pole set-ups.....but yes, they appear to be very much like yours........

I love my stoney's also. They are the tent pole design but I love the breakdown and quick together aspect of their design.
