  Exotic Wood Shooting SticksThis take-down version of our African Shooting Sticks is designed to fit into any airline approved gun case. Now you can use the same set of sticks to hunt kudu in the summer, whitetails in the fall and turkeys from a blind in the spring.Easy to Use & EffectiveThere is a reason why every African PH brings a set of these along for the client; because they are so easy to use and effective. We have improved upon the very basic "3 sticks bound together with inner tube" with our custom made versions that combine the finest raw materials available with unmatched craftsmanship. If you are unfamiliar with African Shooting Sticks or want to understand how to use them and what makes them superior to the other offerings on the market click on our Shooting Stick FAQ's link to get the straight scoop.
 Several years ago we began experimenting with a connector we could use to make take-down shooting sticks. We developed dozens of take-down connector prototypes over the years but for one reason or another they did not meet our criteria; we wanted them to have a very strong, positive locking system and be very easy to put together/take apart with your bare hands. Most importantly, we wanted the addition of the connector to increase the rigidity and strength of the shafts.
Well, the wait is finally over! These are the most rigid, quiet and functional African Shooting Sticks on the market. Our customers tell us they like the rigidity of them which allows them to lean into the shot, how the noise suppression bumpers eliminate the "dinner bell" noise made by the legs of all-aluminum models clanking together and how the points on the bottoms anchor them securely in place. Our SecretThe heart of our new model is a patent pending, two piece aluminum take-down connector designed by a specialty fittings engineer that has three points of contact for tremendous strength. (See photo below) Putting them together is fast and easy; they screw together by hand and assembly takes just a few minutes. As an added feature, the connector incorporates a rubber gasket that compresses with the last turn to prevent them from vibrating loose when traveling cross country in a safari vehicle.
Attention to Detail Shoot from the Standing
Unscrew them and you can use the top section alone for shots from the kneeling or sitting position by posting the pointed ends of the "male" connector in the ground. The versatility we build into our shooting sticks provides you with two complete sets you can hunt with year-round. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Using Your Sticks
Your African Shooting Sticks are very simple to use. First, grasp the two legs that have the black bumpers on them and post the shorter leg (the one without the padded top) out front, in line with where you want to point the rifle. Once you plant the front leg, pull back evenly on the other two legs to form the "V" for your rifle's fore end. Once you familiarize yourself with them, set-up takes just seconds and they expand your effective range considerably. More detailed instructions accompany each set.We spared no expense in developing our new take-down African Shooting Sticks. We hope you enjoy using them as much as we enjoy making them. If you are planning a trip to the Dark Continent, get a set of these so you can practice with them before your trip and relive the excitement of the hunt long after you return home.
In addition to our tri-pod versions, we offer a bi-pod and monopod (hunter staff) version.
