    Shooting sticks vs. Tripod

    I have been looking into both, but dont really know enough to decide yet. Anyone have any real life experience with either or both? Any help would be great, I just feel kinda lost with it. Normally Id just throw down the cash and try for myself, but anything worth trying is pricy.
