Single trekking pole

Recommend some poles?
This cheap set has been recommended by many guys on here. It’s 21oz
Cascade trekking pole


I believe I found one guy on here recommending this pole and then I researched it and hikers seem to give it a high score. The downside to this pole is it’s pretty long in the collapsed position, so if you’re hunting tight brush it’s gonna get in the way while it’s stored away in your pack. If you’re hunting relatively open country it’s great. This is around 12oz and on sale, typically $100 so buy now if you’re gonna get it.
 
I carry two, use them for pack in and heavy pack outs. More often though I let one of my less prepared hunting partners use my second pole when the going gets heavy. They are learning.
 
Mine pretty much reside in my pack most of the time I'm hunting; I'll occasionally pull one out on steep terrain (especially sidehilling) if I need additional balance, BUT if I'm hauling meat I definitely want both in my grubby little hands :D
