  1. I'm with you all on the no money spent thing. The one I used was a sapling sized dry Alder and thats because that was just what was available. I agree with Bill on the highth a staff should be. not only does it steady your binos but it gives you a little more reach on steep slops or while crossing a creek.


  2. I used a walking staff on my last outing that was about as tall as I am. It was a big help especially going down steep slops and crossing fallen trees. We covered about 6 miles, a normal trip for us, I noticed a considerable difference in how much energy I had left at the end of the day.

     

    I was wondering what your take is on a walking aid in the woods or on the trail?


  3. Great shot, that is fun getting big critters like that on the cam........does this mean a bear hunt in the future????

     

    Notice how the picture shot is almost straight down. That cam. is up high for a reason. He's robbed a couple before, must think they're tasty or somethin.

     

    For sure. As he stands right there it's a perfect quartering away shot from 15 yards.
