digit Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 I've always had problems setting the sticks up when rushing after I've seen a fox or rabbit, the strap on the top normally twists and the sticks don't open up proper.So i done a little modification by adding a spring to the pivot point, now the sticks spring open easy with one hand, no more kicking the sticks to open and trying to straighten the strap out.

jamiedenny Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 really good idea, I shall try with mine. Swearing at the sticks generally isn't conducive to a discrete stalk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
