The shooting stick is light weight which matters on a long hike. A full range of adjustments allows settings for shooting seated and standing as well as adjustments for use as a walking/trekking stick! When using as a a walking/trekking stick, the one thing that would make the mono-pod better is including a set of rubber tips accessories to increase the traction on slippery surfaces like mud, snow, rocks and stream crossings.

It's fine, but it is pretty flimsy. I used it for older milsurp rifles, which I suppose are a tad heavier, but the spring in the pole make it pretty difficult to brace, and the rest itself is pretty cheap. It's inexpensive, but it's also cheap so be prepared to get what you pay for.

I use it mostly from a sitting position, sitting on a stool shooting upward into tops of trees at squirrels. As such, I normally don't have to fully extend the staff. However, I did fully extend it once, and from a standing position I tilted the staff forwards. When I did, the bottom-most extension bent. I put too much leaning downward pressure on it is my guess. It is also the thinnest extension. I will not give it a bad rating for that, but just be careful. Keep the staff fully upright, perpendicular to the ground as much as possible. Sometimes you will need to tilt it forwards or backwards a tad to get that perfect angle, but just be mindful of the downward pressure. Don't put too much of your own weight on the staff or push down too hard on it. Anyway, the extension bent but did not break. I now don't extend the bottom extension past where it had bent, keeping the bent portion inside of the next extension above it. All in all, I like it and it has been very useful to me. I would still recommend it and buy it again. Read full review

I was if'y buying this, but I wanted the compact design. I read a few negative reviews and almost didn't buy this. I am pleased with the staff. Seems sturdy for my purposes, I have a cross bow and it holds up, doesn't collapse like the reviews I read. so I give it a thumbs UP

Not quick for adjustments, but if your standing it is long enough, good and solid shooting rest and work real well on slick or icy banks with balance. Light weight and that's big anymore, dark colored now, see how it looks after 20 days of use. Holds height adjustment real well at this time. Works good in very cold weather too.
