Shade Tree Bald Eagle Bench rest.

I am looking at one of these on brtshooterssupply.com.au.

It is a joystick rest and at $950 is around half the price of a Farley or Seb Neo.

Has anyone used one or heard any reports.

I was wondering if it was worth getting one now or waiting a while and getting some more money together and going for the Farley or Seb, or even a Sinclair heavy varmint although it is a non joystick rest.

I use a Davies bipod at the moment but want to have a rest to use as well.

Any comments would be welcome.

Hi Anthony
Have used this rest system for many years, mine is the original Bald Eagle Aluminium sling shot rest (in think the ones that BRT are selling could be a Chineses copy) with the Shadtree joy stick top. Great set-up light weight, great for travel on Airlines, one several Queens with the set-up
If interested can send some photos of the rest.

Good shooting

Hi mate , I have shade tree rest on a Caldwell rest . Not as good as a Farley or Seb but has worked for me . I would recommend it as an entry level rest . Regards Graham.
