Not sure where to post this but I have been looking at shooting sticks to use for up coming turkey season. Me being cheap and semi poor and half handy I chose to make my own. Aww the wonders of PVC

That's a cool idea. I have a hard time holding my gun ready without wobbling around. I found an adjustable one with the "Winchester" brand name on it at Wal Mart for 9 bucks.

Nice use! I just hope you don't have to mess with elevation adjustments in the heat of the moment.

Very nice creation. You going to camo er up? I found a trigger stick in the bargin cave at cabelas. It had a little piece of plastic broken off where the lanyard connects to the stick. Got it for 15$. Keep a eye on the bargin cave.

Yea the elevation issue hopefully won't be one. I put hours an hours and hours of R and D. Lmao seriously though just sat in the yard up against a tree on full gear to figure out the height. Seems to be the perfect height. And yes I will camo it.

From personal experience...
If you are going to spray paint it, be sure to sand it first. Spray paint will chip off of PVC very easily. I would try roughing it up with 100-120 grit sandpaper before painting.

Actually I was thinking that the super bright light will blind the turkey and he will stumble closer to the end of my barrel lol.
