Great informative video Gary, thank you. I use an old camera tripod, I’m nearly always seated on a little fold up seat. It works a treat for me when taking out rabbits and squirrels. I never push against the tripod, just use it for balance.
I may go for one of the taller sticks for when I’m on a walk round.
great test, thanks gary, I learned a lot
thank you for the video Gary👍
Fantastic video my friend 💯
Great Video as usual Gary, thanks , I learned a lot from that.
Speaker stands proper solid very cheap, realy enjoyed your show Gary thanks!
Very helpful video as I am looking to try them.
Great video as usual Gary.
A very good video Gary, that was really interesting and informative 👍 thanks a lot
Lots of interesting information, thanks. Knee replacement surgery due next year so I am using a camera tripod as a trial. I adapted the top mount to a softer surface and it seems to work pretty well, much more stable and far less painful than kneelers but tricky compared to prone.
Great Video 💯 Thank you Gary💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
I have the spartan davros ball head in my gen 3 trigger sticks, game changer!
Great video Gary, I damaged my knee a while back and it seems well healed now so I have decided to shoot sticks, on the rare occasions I get out, just in case it starts it off again. I really cant see me ever shooting from a peg again, it dosent take long to adjust to the position. Its great that its become a recognised class and im sure it extends the competitive life of shooters as we all get older. Its on my to-do list to make some wider yokes, both flat bottomed and wide U shape, direct Gen 3 fit and 1/4" UNF. 😏
Tnx for a vry gud video , vry Interesting.
Regards.

Great video i have the brocock pathfinder with a immersive optics 10x40 and love it. Might see down at maldon some day 👍
I hunt and do 90% off sticks and it was good too see some things that may help my shooting. I'm also considering taking up hft as practice for hunting off sticks 👍
Absolutely brilliant Gary, thank you. I am a lifelong shot, but brand new to HFT. I also suffer M.E. which makes standing difficult. Is it permissible to kneel or even sit whilst using sticks? I saw something I think in one of your other videos suggesting sitting may be permissible with a backless chair of no taller than a certain height?
Shot my first stick comp a week gone Sunday, hit a 44 and thougherly enjoyed it.
I always shoot off a tripod, regardless of range. I find too many stick users set the tripod too low so they're slightly crouching which will increase movement & therefore reduced accuracy. I use the Innorel RT90CM Carbon tripod, superior stability & quality over majority of so called "shooting" tripods & way cheaper. Keep up the great videos fella 😁
Thanks for sticking it to us Gary. I have been trying to get to an event this year but the stars have not aligned sadly. I have a question, you talked at the end about modifications to sticks not being allowed to stabilise the hand, however the chaps were using the hamsters resting against the sticks. Is this not a stabilisation aid of the rifle and equally should not be allowed ?
My mates Primos gen 2 are about 3 years old and used each week and a lot of times used by all 4 of us in our group, the only thing wrong with them is one leg isn't as free moving, I've personally found a stout pair of boots helps my stability.
Great video as ever Gary. I’ve recently started using a proper fingerless HFT glove and resting on top of my Primos to hold the gun. I think this is ok? Your thoughts please?
As a hunter, I found this very interesting Gary. I use sticks 99% of the time these days due to being a lot less mobile than I was, and the fact that every time I got on the floor, I'd need a bloody crane to get me back up again !. Getting old sucks eh ?. Oh, and as an aside. I left my carbon fibre tripod and saddle on one of my permissions last week, and ended up using my gen 3 Primos sticks instead, and honestly, I was shaking about like a dog crapping razor blades !. LOL
I shoot off sticks. I think course setters are aware that a lot of shooters now are using sticks. They obviously do not want to be giving away points for targets stick shooters cannot see. If there are any, they usually have a sticks only position, so that you can see the target. Shooting off sticks isn’t easy, as you have discovered Gary. There is definitely no advantage gained, apart from the fact you don’t have to get up and down. cheers Gary. 👍
Boys from the Thursday club 😂
Great video Gary ( as always )..just 1 question..do the stick shooters put 2 legs forward and 1 at the rear or 1 leg forward and 2 at the rear ?? Any preference guys?👍⛄️
two at the front, 1 at the back, it's covered under the stability section
@garychillingworth sorry Gary, admitting to skipping some of the video.🥴🥴
Think ÿhe stick class is important. As the average age is probably mid fifties in competition...so think they be a good future in it....age waits for no one....
Gary - what do you think about new Mtc Viper Connect 4-16x32? Maybe some rewiev in the future?
Hoping to get one, they are getting some good reviews
I'm looking forward :) @@ShootingCountryTV
Olá meu amigo
Hi Gary do you put a bubble on you guns, and would that have helped shooting of the stick ?
Not allowed in HFT i'm afraid.
@@ShootingCountryTV hi Gary thanks for your reply, are sticks aloud with built-in level ( not on the rifle) thanks
Hi, Don, no all levels must be tapped up.@@donpay6427
I've got no chance then 😂 thanks gor your speedy reply @@ShootingCountryTV
Hi Gary, are you allowed to use quad sticks in HFT.
Regards
Phil
Hi Phil. No, only Mono, Bi and Tripod I'm afraid.
@@garychillingworth cheers Gary.
I’ve never shot HFT but really, I’m more into vermin shooting etc but always find your videos of huge interest and always tips transferable from one discipline to another👍. Also the humour you add makes it very watchable and lighthearted.
Look forward to the next episode.
I use a mk3, I find it hard to eliminate side to side movement generated by me not the stick. Very difficult to stop your body moving when standing up, no problem sitting. I tried resting my S400 further foreward and back, not much difference really.
I soon realised I was getting poor grouping with my HW98, the groups were tighter shooting off my knee with a hamster. It comes with a rubbery V rest which is ok for PCP but I found it didn't work very well with my HW98 so I tried putting pipe lagging all over it covered with a chamois leather to give a flat soft surface to shoot off. This improved grouping no end. I can only summise it's because the V retricts or affects the recoil somewhat but whatever, it's a lot better. Maybe it's just me but worth a try.
BTW, not only me with the side to side thing.
Great info, thanks - Gary
eu sou Brasileira não em tudo
eque está falando
Why oh why can't more gun manufacturers pud anti double loading in their expensive rifles,if weihrauch can do,it like in their sublime hw100, why can't others 🤔
