So ok I am a newbie here and I have to admit this is the greatest forum I have ever seen. I am amazed at how many people here are willing to help and share knowledge. I have to say I have stolen so many home made ideas here it isn't funny. I am the Fred Sanford of this forum. I am all set I built the ipod remote e caller and the Radio shack caller. I bought a Lightforce and tonight I made a monopod. So for all of you that can't get to Gander Mnt I went to Outdoor World tonight and bought a Hunter's Specialties® V-Pod Gun Rest. This rest is a mono but at the bottom it has spring loaded fork system that has a some promise for day hunting but it HAS THE SWIVEL GUN REST. I will add pictures later as the paint is drying just this moment. My point in all this is I made it a swivel light stick that allows you to move the light and not the gun until you are ready to shoot. It cost me $29 from Outdoor world and about $10 in parts to get it adapted. Outdoor World actually has a package deal where you get a V pod and a little heavy duty sitting stool and a camo blind cover with poles attached for $49. I bought it because it was cheaper to get the stool and v pod together than to buy them separately. I am getting old and need something to get my A$$ up off the ground. Well older or lazy one LOL. The only special tool I needed to make it was a Dremel. So if you have one this will take all of 30 minutes to retrofit. I will post pictures here soon and if anyone is interested I will be more than happy to give step by step on how to do it. Thanks to everyone here for all your creative ideas and for sharing them. Now I can't wait to get out this weekend and see if I can find something to shoot at. Just my luck I will be well equipped and with my 22-250, lightforce, e caller, mono pod light stick not to mention a JIB and find out there is nothing out there to shoot. I got to bring something home before the wife throws me out LOL.
