Hope you find exactly the walking support you are looking for. Items similar to mine are still made in Britain and are available from this merchant, prices from 23 to 105 pounds.<br /><br />http://www.avalon-guns.com/avalon/Shooting_Sticks___Seat_Sticks.html<br /><br />Chuck, I don't shoot often enough anymore to think a great deal about sophisticated aids. As you suggest, use what is available.vanillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11978025976591113499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535543883262225735.post-80423290007359592792014-07-19T12:05:59.402-04:002014-07-19T12:05:59.402-04:00I've heard of these before, but this is the be...I've heard of these before, but this is the best view.

For my part, I try to use a tree or a deck rail for shooting support.Secondary Roadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05116234285533139701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535543883262225735.post-66463816242763429832014-07-19T11:42:55.711-04:002014-07-19T11:42:55.711-04:00I love those.

And as I get older and more unstable on my feet I have scrolled through catalogues looking at the new ones - They are not as elegant as yours and probably not as sturdy. <br /><br />At the moment tho I am just comparing collapsible canes - something I can stash in my bag until I need it...<br /><br />I bought a cane in an antiques flea market a few years ago - it was an emergency sort of purchase and only recently discovered that the ornate head of the cane comes off and there is a flask inside!
