Ive never tried it but has anyone been successful using shooting sticks in a ladder stand?
I figured I could place the sticks in the foot rest.
I have the adjustable Stoney Point sticks.

I suppose it could be done. I've always just used the rail as a rest.

Primos sells a part to use their shooting sticks in a treestand.

Yes I do. Just put the sticks on your boot and fire away. When you have the possibility of 200 plus yard shots like I do you need as much stability as you can get.

I've got a Stoney Point bipod that I use in a 2 man ladder stand. Feet wanted to get stuck in the mesh floor so I just put 2 of the small tennis balls on them. Works great now.

Some of the cheap ladder stands don't have shooting rails.
