Jumping Stilts Off Road Version

[Bowhunter57]

This might be my next addition to my hunting gear. My mind is racing with applications for this device!
What are your thoughts?

I'm wondering how these would apply to hunting.

 

[Jamie]

you aren't going to do well off a groomed trail, say in tall grass or anyplace where you might have to duck under branches. I don't see how these help an outdoorsman at all. I've worn stilts quite a bit, and you do not want to fall with them on. a fall that skins your palm or elbow breaks bones when you fall wearing 24" stilts. I'll stick with my boots.

Bet ya put em up for sale in a week.[emoji2]
I see no use for them in a hunting situation.

I'm with Jamie on this one, it won't be if you fall it'll be when you fall... I'm imagining you're thought process is walking to the stand for possible scent control or stealthiness? But if that's the case who'd want too risk a tumble with all your gear attached???

No use to the hunter.. Unless you want some bruised and broken body parts...Alot of my hunting is done in very rocky areas.

Daniel, what was you doing at 1:18 am that brought up this idea? Sorry but I just had to ask. :smiley_chinrub:

 

[giles]

And what applications is your mind racing? I can't think of anything that wouldn't make a good blooper reel.

Any creek crossing or mud area would be a nightmare. Also, look how cautious they were in daylight with placement in any surface that wasn't nicely groomed. Imagine walking in and out at night, catching a rut or a down branch. All while carrying your bow/gun and anything else.

Cool video. Beautiful scenery. Fairly certain they will require some practice. Lol

Watching how nimble they were walking looks like a good way to get hurt bad and quickly.

Well fuck... There's 5 minutes of my life I'll never get back...

I just thought eventually something cool would happen. The title implied there'd be some jumping involved. Nope... Just a couple dudes walking in the woods on some expensive drywall stilts. Lmao

Yeah I was waiting for some 10 foot jumps and various tricks, nothing happened lol. Fugg it, I don't need stilts anyway.
