Shooting sticks

[crossy 666]

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has found A way of carrying there shooting sticks around with them while there out walking around. I have a pair of Primos Trigger Sticks and primos do a carry bag for them so I’ve brought one of them and works well but I also use some viper flex sticks but there quite long so the bag is too short for them. I like to keep my hands free for spotting ect

A very easy fix would be a single rod sleeve (fishing rod sleeve)

A bit of string with loops at each end.

I’m just looking for one of them at the moment but most don’t come with a shoulder strap

Wow, that's a surprising request. What type of hunting do you do?

If you put the sticks in a bag they will be slow to deploy. Strings and stuff is likely to just be a pita. I carry mine left hand. Rifle is on my back hands free. When I stop to spot the sticks provide the rest. When I shoot the spotter drops on the neck and rifle is seamless onto the sticks.  

Sticks are pushed open by the stock. Mostly I shoot at night but same technique for Stalking. If I bump deer or night quarry i want to be straight on the sticks. No phaffing with bags straps and clips. Even my sticks are carried unclipped.

I’ve just ordered one of them which I think should do the job. When I’m range finding, removing thermal climbing gates ect I use two hands and just find it easier to have my rifle on one shoulder and sticks on the other.

I have to agree when I’m out lamping foxes yes I still use a lamp I carry my sticks in my left hand the rifle over my right shoulder if I see anything the sticks are put on ground first standing up then rifle on top If I had the sticks in cover or bag it would be too long to require them especially at night

I use z aim and hunter Pro rifle slings they are quick and hands free. Thermal or bonus around my neck. The sticks on in left hand provide a support for scanning.

Is it transporting sticks to the land by foot / public transport, walking across fields to where a shooting area is or where walking the ground begins ? I use either a Primos Gen3 or Mjoelner mini quad sticks, the mini quads come in a carry bag. If a carry bag is needed to get to the land I'd suggest a fishing rod bag, if while walking the fields I'd suggest a rifle sling first, as others have said, a quick deploy is needed.
