Glenn,

 Thanks for the info. Sure are a lot of different makers, but basically they are all pretty much the same, with the exception of the one that could be folded up. The outfit down that list a little ways "Fly Fishing Fundamentals" is the guy who''s making ours. He's a local guy so thought it would be nice to go with him. Besides that, he took us on a tour of his shop and explained everything about them and the "why's" of doing it the way he does.

PETE

Wind Socks are what I prefer to use, to me they are one dimensional. All one has to do is take a glance at the sock for direction and wind speed, it is that simple! Including the stand I only have about $25.00 invested in each one. I like to shoot three wind socks when shooting bench and offhand competition, a total investment of $75.00 is not bad.

Scheutzen,

Nice set-up, I have used a windsock for long range, 500 yards set at 300 yards and it worked for me.

Where did you get your stand?

Ed I bought my stands at ( Orchard Supply ) which is owned by Sears and have the Craftsman Name. They are made for Hologen Lights and were offered separately. I picked mine up for under $17.00 each out the door!
