Product Description

The adjustable-length Tracks Sherlock Staff is hand-built with high-strength, lightweight anodized aluminum tubing. It is built in three sections which may be unscrewed and packed into the included nylon carry bag for compact travel and storage. The uppermost section features length-adjustment push-button and holes enclosed in a soft foam sheath. It has a contoured foam handle for comfort, an adjustable Wedge Lock wrist loop for wrist support, a removable walnut knob with a universal camera mount, and a spike tip beneath a removable rubber foot for trekking versatility. The staff's length may be adjusted between 44.5 and 57.5 inches (113 and 146 centimeters), its stored length is 24 inches (61 centimeters), and it weighs 18 ounces (500 grams).

The staff is designed to reduce the impact of each step. The weight which is normally carried by the lower body is transferred to the arms and torso, lessening the stress on the legs by five to 10 pounds. This allows you to experience more power and traction going uphill and to reduce strain on the knees and ankles when coming down. These travel staffs are available as single walking staffs and paired as trekking poles.

length adjustment mechanism is awkward, certainly not intuitive.
Have to return it for defective camera mount screw.

5.0 out of 5 stars Walking Stick / Monopod, April 18, 2009

By	Joshua C. Brubaker - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been wanting a monopod for my camera for a while now. I actually saw this walking stick at Bass Pro Shop, and loved it, because it's a walking stick/monopod. Plus, the best thing about it, it folds up easy enough to stick in a backpack. The actual length for me is a little tall when put together,(I'm 5'4")but it's okay.

I haven't actually used it hiking yet, but from the looks of it, I believe it'll do just fine.

4.0 out of 5 stars Reliable, comfortable and great to travel with, December 30, 2008

By	W. Timothy Sullivan - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought mine two years ago when visiting Acadia National Park in Maine. It has held up well and collapses down small enough to fit in my duffel sized luggage.
