What are the regulations for OAL of the sticks? I see the spike and blade length of 3 inches but the length seems not to be specified

3. Cross Sticks-Two wooden legs, no greater than 1 inch by 2 inches in thickness and width or 11⁄2 inches in diameter, and bolted or tied so that the two legs are hinged and capable of pivoting. The end of the legs may be equipped with spikes no more than 3 inches in length and no wider than the edge of the crossed stick. One layer of protective material may be suspended or inserted in the “V” of the crossed sticks to protect the rifle. The non-trigger hand is considered artificial support when in contact with the ground and the rifle butt stock simultaneously and is not permitted. In addition to the above rule Benchrest style shooting sticks are allowed. The Bench Top cross sticks will follow the same dimensions and materials rules, but in place of spikes, they have a flat base of wood placed on the ground. The base is to be no wider than 6 inches to attach the sticks to. They will be free standing and not supported by the shooter’s chair or feet in any way.

I have never seen regulation for length of the sticks. Can have a short set for prone, larger for sitting, or one set that you use for both
