Freddog, I have a couple of portable stands that I attached a piece of aluminum tubing, about 1" long, to with the lower ends capped off. They are placed, one each, at the front corners of the platform. This gives me a place to put the feet of my Stoney Point extendable Bi-pod to rest in and I then can use the bi-pod to shoot from. It also works with a dowel rod bi-pod I made from two pcs of dowling and a heavy duty O-ring, but I give up the option of changing heights. Just a thought. Good luck...RW :wink:
