How often do you carry a walking stick when kilted

Howdy,

I always carry one when I shoot. I use it to hold my shell bag when I'm active in a station.

Kevin,

So is it a thumbstick with a spiked end?

Cheers

I find I need a tree ,or, a loader to hold my 250 cartridge bag.

I'm recovering from a motorcycle accident and just now getting to the point where I can walk again without a stick. But I still use it....for now. Nothing fancy, though, it's a bubba stik.

I have one... haven't used yet. I used to use for hikes back in the old scout days, mostly for testing ground ahead and probing areas for snakes....

I did get one recently, one that stands tall. As an avid macro photographer, I plan to remove a quick release mount from a tripod and install on the top of my walking stick. 2 birds with one stone... have a stick for hiking and a monopod for my camera. It's not so comfy going on a large hike with a tripod strapped to your back.

Currently out of necessity due to a blown knee. Once my surgery (knee replacment) I shall cary a stick because it pleases me to do so.

I don't hike while kilted - or is that kilt while hiking? My one kilt is reserved for special occasions for now.

When I do go hiking, I use a hiking staff, about 5 feet tall.

I'm in the same boat as EagleJCS, although I'm trying to reform my ways.
Usually my kilted experiences find me 'piping for something, so a stick wouldn't work. When I hike, though, I always have a stick of some kind.

I have two walking sticks that I use all the time, kilted or not. One is a nice light but sturdy rattan cane, the other is the Cold Steel polypropyline version of the Blackthorn stick. A heavy bugger probably more of a club than a cane, but it looks great and feels good in my hand.

I carried one (I have three) for 'flair', but it came in handy when I got a bit wobbly with the medication & chemo.
