Viper-Flex Shooting Sticks

I used the Viper Flex sticks on my last safari, they belonged to my PH. This was the first time I had seem them, and had the choice of these or of using a traditional set. I opted to try the Viper Flex, as they seemed to work well during the sighting in process (borrowed rifle as well).
It took me quite some time to get used to them. However, I wounded a couple animals, as I was nowhere near proficient enough with them. I was angry with myself for not knowing when to quit, and return to what I was used to.
So, yes they work very well, with the caveat that you practice, practice, practice with them first.

I had never used them before in my life before Namibia. Always used a tree, fence post or what was available. Adapted to them right from the first shot. If I needed a bit more stability the PH put light pressure on my upper back.
I found them great, I may as well have had a benchrest set up in the bush they were that good to ME.
Everyone is different tho and I appreciate the difference.

Where can one buy the new all carbon fiber "Pro" version of the Viper-Flex sticks in the USA? The only online retailer that seems to carry these in the US, https://www.hollandguns.com/, appears to not carry this version.

These are what I'm looking for:

Purchased mine from an outfit on eBay. Want to say they were out of England. It was an easy process and took about 3 weeks to get them in.
 
Viper flex are far more robust than 4 stable stix which personally I find flimsy and liable to break. We had to patch a set up last week where the top fitting cracked and separated from the pole. This happened on a hunt whilst trying to take a shot.
Luckily you were on hand with your Viperflexs to shoot the buck whilst I fiddled with my 4 Stable Six!!

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to get in contact with Mr Butch Searcy. I have the opportunity to buy one of his rifles chambered in 577 nitro Express however the seller does not have any of the paperwork with the information about what ammunition or bullet weight was used to regulate it. I know he is not making firearms anymore but I wanted to reach out after seeing one of your post about him.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl

Hey Steve, This is Steve Washington we met at KMG last year. I am interested in your Winchester. Would love to speak with you about it. I work third shift and I cannot take a phone with me to work. Let me know a good time to call during one of your mornings. My phone is [redacted]. Live in Florida so I have to account for the time difference.
Look forward to hearing from you.
