Another Shoulder Surgery Thread
No turkey hunting, spring perch or walleye fishing for me. Had to cancel a June Quebec fishing trip. Rotator Cuff surgery on March 20 : three fully torn tendons, ripped bicep, SLAP tear, and an impingement fix. Luckily it was the left shoulder.

I think I'm going to do it : Bergara B-14 Hunter in 7mm-08
I am very close to ordering one of these. The Bergara Ridge seems a bit barrel heavy for me, and doesn't come in 7mm-08. I do not want a Tikka. Fine rifles, but not for me. This will mostly be a Whitetail Deer rifle, but not ruling out elk also. Shots under 300 yards. Considering mounting a... -

Looking for advice about Shooting Sticks
My wife and I will be hunting deer and elk in Utah this fall. While we have hunted the west a number of times, we have never used shooting sticks. Do you guys use them ? What brand do you use ? Do you like the mono pod, bi pod, or tri pod ? What about Trigger Sticks ?
