I made up a few sets of shooting sticks using some plant stakes from the garden dept. at Home Depot. They come in various lengths, and are made of a green plastic with a metal inner core for support. Use elastic shock cord (or rubber O rings)to bind the sticks together about 8-10" from the top, and get some 3/8 ID vinyl tubing from the HD plumbing dept to keep the sticks from marring your gun. Cheap,quiet and lightweight. If you don't like them, you can always use the sticks to hold up your tomatoes.
