I always bent over and picked them up. never in 55 yrs used a stick.

 

[GatorBoy]

No stick for me either. I'm sure it helps you move along more efficient but just not for me.

 

[leprechaun]

I've got some lucky pool sticks upstairs at my house and there maple and fancy at the far or fat end.

I'm only 31 years old, but my eye site is bad ( don't fish without sunglasses, seriously) I have to bend down and flip rocks. Every thing looks worked to me, I'd wear a stick out every day. On second thought, Old man farmer Johnson nor his Doverman like me sneakin in his fields. I might get me a stick. Walkin tall type

didn't know what kind of response i would get from posting this thread......but thank you my friends
if you had my back (pain) a stick sure helps
and this dirt with so much stuff....it would probably be easier to crawl than bend over and flip all the possibles over

 

[larson1951]

[flintdigger]

Love that dirt

Like your field shot there Larson. I do have a stick but a little different then your beauts,mines one I've had now going on 15yrs or better.It's a half inch around & has been homed to a point after many years of use.Little heavy on long walks. But It's a multipurpose stick that I use from anywhere to flipping with to poking for bottles to staking of my skiff with.Normally sticks are everywhere around where I hunt so if just flipping then I just go break one of them off.As my backs not all that good nomore either they do help.

Here's some post of places I hunt & me in action....................

I really like those sticks you made. I use a graphite golf club handle that I found with the club end missing. Nothing fancy for me.

 

[austin]

Uh, I use a very long, very comfortable machete. Has all sorts of uses and sends a pretty good message to critters. I am never around people, just out in the wilds of Texas.

 

[GatorBoy]

Machete is great when digging too.slices through the dirt. Love hearing that clink when it hits Flint.

 

[larson1951]

i think twitko and his son krovert had their lucky sticks when the banner point was found by krovert

[larson1951]

[flintdigger]
