Who all uses Pod Claws and how do you like them? I'm thinking about getting a set. thanks
Re: Who all uses Pod Claws?
I use them. great for when your prone on the ground, they really dig in. On wood your gonna be ok but on concrete or something your gonna be bouncing.
So if you stick to loose soil, gravel, hay, and so on your gonna be GTG.
Hard surfaces in which the claws cant dig into something, not so effective. Try the ski feet he sells that separately and they are good for almost any surface as well
Side note: get some claw feet covers, they will tear up your finish on your barrel quick. and they will snag your clothes, pack, other gear, your buddies face, so on and so on.
have fun with them. they make a hell of a back scratcher as well!!!

They are very effective on the ground. You will need to get the leg screws to keep them from rotating. Also they make the bipod about one inch higher at the lowest setting. I really like mine. I have used them in 2 F-TR matches and no complaints. I wound not use them on the bench.

Re: Who all uses Pod Claws?
I just picked them up and have only a single range day. From the bench, I did not notice much difference between rubber Harris feet until I stabled down a piece of carpet, then the claws bit so I could load it up, rifle hop was significantly reduced.
Patch of asphalt. The claws bit well and I could find small divets and then dig in the claws into them that cut down on rifle hop.
Hard dirt, moved them around to dig in.
Loose rock, the rocks move around and while they are better than rubber feet, the shifting rocks are still a concern.
My concern is, they increase the bipod height quite a bit and it was hard for me to get low in prone with the extra height. I am sure it is something I can overcome with time on the trigger.
My claws kept tipping up on their sides when I moved them around trying to load them, very annoying. I asked Cheese and he told me to tighten up the claws on the legs, lock the leg screws, I should see a noticeable difference but have yet to get out and see, way too hot here to go shooting.
And yes, get the cover, just one day I was happy I did.

If they can hold the deck of a boat at sea for some of our Military users, the bench or hood of a car is not an issue at all. </div></div>
Rubber feet or the claws? I thought about the rubber feet but rarely shoot from the bench now, its 95% prone.
I am saying......me likes them, only got one day with them.....must learn to use them.....next fall when I will get to abuse them, I know they will be worth their weight in gold on snow, ice, frozen rocks and tundra where standard rubber Harris were next to useless.

Help loading your pod 150%. Reduce jump. Faster follow up shots. Looks sexy too.
In all seriousness, why wouldnt you use them?

Re: Who all uses Pod Claws?
I shoot with my pod claws on all the time, they rock!! The only down side is if you shoot off of concrete, they bounce. I'm making a set of rubber flat covers for shooting off of concrete.

You would be absolutely amazed how well these work on man made surfaces and off in the dirt...especially sand.
