Man going bear hunting with a bow and arrow on the ground runs from a bumblebee and his own house.

GREAT presentation! I got the 6' sticks at Home Depot (marketed by Vigoro in the garden section) - light and strong! I got the carabiners at Harbor Freight - the foam tubes on them are longer than the ones on the carabiners at Walmart for the same price). I noticed you struggling a bit on taking that foam off - here's a tip for anyone trying this: they are essentially the same as early 80s GRAB-ON bicycle grips, and if you soak in a little soapy water before removing or installing they slide right off! I got those off the carabiners in about 5 seconds! Hope to finish today - thanks again for the great video DIY!!!!!

I think this is great information. It helps people like me who don't have the extra money for things like shooting sticks but I'll make a set just like this and I'll be proud of them. Same way when I plant my garden and harvest my own vegetables... Rock on man....

great video bud... shame that there are so many ignorant guys that can't appreciate the fact that you took some time out and effort to share... thanks for sharing!! ;)

I love the design you have for this. I will be makeing me a set for use with my ground blind.

I also am very budget minded when it comes to hunting and shooting accessories for the reason that it allows me to spend a little more on the Firearms and bows. I had a plan in mind when on how to make my own, but thought I would check to see how others were doing it. You made yours pretty well EXACTLY how I had it in mind. No need to look any further. great video....and very nice looking rifle

Impressive. Thanks for taking the time and effort to share your creation.

Tried it out, went to lowes, 2 garden stakes, 1' of tubing, and I cotter pin pack. About 5$ and some change. Took 5 minutes to put together, holds the weight of my heavy Mosin Nagant perfectly fine and it is the right hight for a blind chair. Great vid! Gonna try it out this weekend.

Love, love, love this. I've seen this video before, and glad I ran back into it, as now I have a use for a set. :D Sweet! Thanks for the vid, and all your DIY stuff. I love the ingenuity behind saving money. :D lol

Excellent! I will be making some of these for sure!

Great video. The money saved on the sticks = more ammo!

Great job on the information! I love the cost most of all!

Great Video! 5 Stars. The foam is available as pipe insulation at most plumbing stores. Hope you got to use it on your hunt, thanks for sharing.

Nice and workable idea!!!! More money for me Irish Beer. Thanks for sharing my man

Awesome!! Good job.

Good video. Planning on making my own sticks too

Wondered what the clear tube was for but it turned out to work great. I think I'd go with a shorter sticks for sitting position shooting. Thanks for a great DIY video.

Gonna make mine a little shorter for a ground blind .Great video great presentation Rock on brother

First I thought this was stupid, but after watching all those other complicated vlogs of making gun mounts this is by far the easiest and best way for the same rifle support you need.

Hey just was looking to make a set of my own bipod sticks. I used your Idea and then did an upgrade. Instead of a pin and the figure, eight rings used some very strong rubber band rings that are Castrating bands we use on the farm. Works great. just to let you know of the other options you can use. thanks for a great video and the help with my build. love these now and very cheap like you said to make and they are durable

Oh and I love the stock on the savage!

Outstanding. On my way to Lowes right now. Thanks

Nice work man, I am going to need a set of those shooting sticks. Next time I go hunting with my new Remington 770. But first I need to go Bowhunting with my old Bear with that new Sling Wrist you showed me how to make. LOL!

Bees!!! I love it! Only human after all.

lmao big hunter runs from a bee, good vid good idea !!

Very ingenious!!!

great video, the bee part was the best

Great video... going to make a pair or two...thx

Spray paint or camo wrap or camo duck tape would take them to the next level. Thanks, I will be making these in the near future.

For those with little cash a great idea and video. For me I'm lazy and got my Gen 3 shooting/camera stick (the only cusomization I have done is camo taped the bottom section of the three feet). That does me fine, for those who can't afford such a stick I will be sending them to your video!

great vid. Thanks. scared of a little bee and your going bear hunting.

Nice video. I don't subscribe to many channels, but I did yours. I watched 3 posts of yours tonight, they were all common sense! Common Sense. That goes a long way! Thanks for the post, keep them up. I hope to put up my first video on youtube in the next 3-4 weeks about shooting ballistic glass. I have a friend that replaces auto glass and he gave me a windsheild out of an armored truck that he replaced. I am looking forward to it. Thanks again!

great video im going to make some for myself and use this as a guide.

Golf Club shafts. The graphite ones, from Goodwill stores. Already have nice grips on them too :)

+Diesel Ramcharger -- No disrespect, but did you actually use golf clubs, or are you just making stuff up? Wouldn't golf clubs be WAY too short???

andrew syndergaard Depends how long you want your shooting sticks. Wether you shoot sitting kneeling or standing. They have club shafts that are almost 6' long. But i digress. I shoot off hand.

Well done mate, I enjoy doing things like this, self gratification I guess. Made mine out of replacement fibreglass tent poles!

Good idea. I am thinking of converting my snow shoe trekking poles into shooting sticks, since I already have them. I will just have to buy some camo duck tape, for sound insulation and to make them less visible. Same setup, I just need to figure out if I want to hold them together with my hands, the wrist straps or some other way. Need to find a "field quick" way of holding them together.

Just made one of these last night got the idea from your video! I didn't use any grips though and it ended up costing a total of $11... Thanks for the videos

love it 😎

Awesome job I'm gonna be making some tomorrow

I modded an old wooden crutch last year, in a hurry, and thirty miles to town, but I like this better.

Great video dude, im going out to make one for my pellet rifle

Good Job and and pat on the back for being inventive as a way to save money I'm going to make one just like that one I was just in a gun store looking at those sticks and your right they are too expensive for what you get Blasted things look like 10 cents worth of materials they sell for $40

good job, i will make this for my airgun plinking games. thank you.

@MrBob6939 nope....99 cents buy one get one at the local hardware store...you don't have to use those, you can use hockey stick tape too...whatever is your preference

This is old video. But just to help others with this. You can use castration rings for the pivot point. They will last years.

I made a set with the castration rings. Very easy to do. Pole price much higher in "23" but still a bargain compared to China sticks! BUT!!! This set up is not as stable as you would think! ( It's better than Offhand a little bit) the poles are very flexible. Using them with an air-rifle which has a much longer barrel dwell time is still a challenge when the kill zone is 1 inch or less.

Exactly what I was looking for.

Bee hunting with a stick. Is that a new sport I haven't heard of? :)

great video i used a bike inner tube to keep mine together

@DagoBowHunter dude, that bee had a tattoo...i was sure as hell gonna try! lol

Good job man.

Great video!!! I am going to try and make my own this week! One thing I think I will do differently is put some electrical tape or a rubber cap on the bottoms of the polls to they are quieter and also won't sink into the ground as much. What size drill bit did you use?

This guy is awesome.

@shawnbebout so many different options...if you take a trip to a hardware store, you'll be filled with ideas. Most of my DIY stuff is just that...walkin around a sporting goods store and saying "i could totally make that"...the trick is figuring out how. Let me know how you end up.

For the record I love your vid's. I sub'd a couple days ago and watched all of them back to back. I do have an archery question for you. I'm getting back into it and found what seems to be a good bow it's the Martin Jag take down. Is there a rest you'd recommend for a recurve that might let me use the FOB's? If not what's a decent rest for a setup like that? Thank you for any help you can give me, take care from Texas.

i love the scheme on your rifle bro. i hope you bagged yogi and boo boo on your trip

On a serious note, instead of wasting money on the carbineers solely for the foam look into some of the pipe insulation or some hardware stores have dense foam wraps for lawn mower handles. Then again once you use the foam from the beeners you can use them for hanging equipment and such.

"I don't like bee's, I don't like the sting" LMFAO!!!!!! What else would you not like bee's for? The buzz? That was a great laugh.

I'm huntin' Bayer. Oh nooo, a 🐝 😆

Dunno how long the tubing would hold up in mixed temperature ranges and all, but..... You could use the same method of making a paracord bracelet and make a strap to go across the two. Added benefit - you'd have a few feet of paracord if you needed it. Now, I'm inspired to make some - thanx!

Nice video thanks

cool. good turn out. home depot carries small foam pipe insulation so you dont have to buy those large caribiners.

tell where you got the produts to build it

I will make a set but I have a question. Why do you have a bright reflective scope on a camouflage stock? It seems counter productive to me.

Nice word, bud!

I would not use the plastic tubing i would just rest on the foam

you can get those grips off the carabiners easier by shooting compressed air underneath them, thats how we get bike handle grips on and off easier.

Another thing you could do to join the sticks is to get tubing that will go over both of the sticks, and it works as good as the pin, and you wont take the chance of splitting the stick.

Bees might be good for your hunting area. just think bees make honey and bears like it. I had a little bitty bee sting me in the side and it felt like somebody stabbed me an ice pick. When i was a kid i didnt remember them to hurt that bad. LOL

Good Idea Cheers : @ )

That’s a Bee … and you’re going bear hunting …😂🤣😂

Awesome!! You could just lash the together as another option.

What size bit? Kotter pin ?

Interesting. Which part of that was the point?

@nockbuster777 I really wanted to go with a bow, but i've never hunted bear before, I don't know how i'm going to react...it was a really hard decision to make, but i opted to go with my rifle the first time...it may sound like a cop-out, but i want to find out how i am going to act with a bear in front of me...next time will be with a bow though

10 minute video...2 minutes of useful content.

Ryan Aldrich I thought the vid was funny

BEEEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!!!

I would use surgical tubing like on slingshots. The rubber grips the gun better.

in my country $120 for shooting sticks. thank you so much .

@dxjustindx1 sweet man! nice job on both!

Nice

I guess you never were too good at swinging things, swoosh swu, I lol'd.

haha lol at the bees

ran across this vid looking through sling shot and bow and arrow vids.....and the whole time i thinking and trying to figure out...."how the fuck is he going to use this with a bow and arrow?!?!?" then the Bowhunter breaks out the bolt action rifle!! LMAO....OOOHHHH....ok, NOW the vid makes sense.....

Hunts bears, runs from bees.... :)

nice man i made the same sticks and killed a eight pointer this year

@MBCon18 LMFAO!!!!! nice, I wouldn't really say that i'm 'afraid' of bees...but that was a big mother bee tho :-)

Next time you have foam handles to remove a lil wd40 between foam and whatever they are on they slide right off then wait bout 5 minutes and they are dry....:)

how long is that introduction? 49 seconds?

4:10 SHOOOOT!

hey haha I swair I just seen you in walmart today!?!?

If I were bear hunting and using shooting stick.....make them out of wood. Those garden stakes are way to flimsy. I have some.....tossed them and used wood. You will be glad you did. Thanks for the vid.

I was honestly just goign to save even more money and make my own stocks out of branches. just shave then down till there straight and look like sticks

put some water on your carabiners , the foam will slide very easy

Your ideas are good, but I wonder how noisy those sticks would prove to be as they rubbed together and rattled around when the hunter was hand-carrying them in the back country. I'd want to soundproof mine with a bit of pipe insulation. Also, I bet the price of those fancy carabiners sure drove the cost of your sticks well above the $4 you calculated.

thanks a heap for the idea. I can throw the the dam pole i AM USING NOW AWAY. THANKS AGAIN

whats your rifle?

saw similar vid on "Airgun TV". the sticks

I see White Out! :)

Nice!!!

@zeplinpower54 if you saw that thang you'd be afraid of it too!!! LMFAO!
