ICEMAN:
Ive deployed my harris bipod for my bear and one deer so far...worked great.

Killbilly,
I know what you mean.  Growing up in NE WA, and hunting thick timber I never bothered with a bipod.  Out here in wheat field country though it is a different story.  Of the last 6 deer I shot out here, 4 of them were spotted at over a half mile away and I either had to run to cut them off, or stalk them bedded. 
None of them were shot from the prone position.  The grass and brush (even wheat stubble) is too high.  My Versapod has long, fold out legs.  Now, when I spot an animal, I immediately flip out the bipod and drop into a seated shooting position.  It lowers my profile and I am ready for a shot if need be.

firecrotch:
i use a harris bipod when im hunting our snake river ranch. most of the time there really isnt anything to get a good rest on. when im hunting the mountains i dont bring any sort of rest just because there is usualy a stump a rock or a side of a tree to firmly rest the gun. plus i dont like having the extra weight or something extra to lug around walkin the steep terrain.
