Got charged by an unruly mutt a couple weeks back- one thwack across his beak from my 5 .5 ft length of birch convinced the angry pooch that I wanted to be left alone..
The 3d and the 7th the Iron Bamboo!! I wish I could have any of these 2! Unfortunately, I live in Greece...Nothing better, than a good hiking stick!! Good job there, I really like your work!!
They are all beautiful walking sticks, really wanna learn the proper ways of making them, I wouldn't mind a job where I can make them and enjoy it, wouldn't mind getting a job making them
I purchased the Brazos 58" natural hickory walking stick a few years ago. I have used it all throughout the NC mountains and added an Elk Knob medallion to it after we hiked the Knob. It has been a great hiking stick and I get compliments on it all the time. They are a quality product made in the USA!
I bought the hickory without the twist and love it. Solid as a rock. I use it for hiking and train with it for self defense. People always take notice of me hiking with it.
Love your products and couldn't be more grateful for your generosity to Sentara Healthcare Camp Lighthouse. We love the compassion you show to our campers dealing with the loss of a loved one.
Really personal preference. A Hickory is the heaviest we sell. A large one could weigh well over two pounds. Some folks like that and feel safer, while some folks would much prefer one fund or less.
Brazos Walking Sticks hi! I have mailed you a request! Can you please see the mail and get back to me as soon as you have a chance. Thanks :) Christopher
this is a coming habit for seniors where I am in the Rockies. Lightweight sticks are also handy for poling ahead, downhill support on trails and steps, and the very occasional dog. Our black bears are all well behaved, but you never know! Noticed you also have "diamond willow" in one of your videos. In Ontario that was prized and pretty rare. I'll have to check the homestead this spring as thousands of acres have gone back to deer and moose browse.
Unless you are amble walking on FLAT ground your staffs are all too short. For steep hills you need a staff a few inches taller than yourself. Also it looks like you are clear cutting all the second growth in your area :(
Hello sir, Thanks for the recommendations. You are right, we size our sticks for general walking in semi developed trails and in flatter areas etc. However we do sell longer and adjustable staff for more serious day and multi mile hikers. Also we work closely with forestry managers so that we have no negative impact on the Forest. In fact we have a video explaining how. Basically our cutters come in right when the second growth is needing to be thinned. At this time in the process the keeper trees are about 6'' in diameter and the saplings we seek are actually in the way and are shredded or simply pushed over in the thinning process. Anyway, thanks for your time if you have read this far!
@@BrazosWalkingSticks Thank You for your responce - I live where much of the second growth gets thined out by deer - Glad to hear you don't seem to have that problem and seem to have a responcible attitude to your environment
Smacked the hell out of a coyote who kept coming to close to me while walking my fat ass down a wooded trail with the first model of stick.

I got the Twisted Walnut stick at Wal-Mart for $15 and I have been using it every single day. I absolutely adore it.
What is the difference between the backpacker and the trekker? Thank you.
Hiking Stick. Humanity's most ancient weapon.

I've got one with a natural twist in it.. it's pretty cool looking

I also have a straight hickory stick for hiking.
How much was it
@@markirish7599 it was approximately $40 and worth it
@@timrogers3714 thank you for your reply.

Why thank you sir, you are very kind.
@@BrazosWalkingSticks As is Brazos for your gift of hiking stick blanks. I might need more for next year. The kids LOVED them.
I own 3 sticks and 1 cane
So I have Cerebral Palsy and am about 5”4 5”5 what size stick would be best?
The walking stick should meet around your wrist. 🚶
very informative, thank you! all the best and happy trails!
Thank you! Happy trails to you!
Man they are beautiful!
I love my Brazos staff. Do you have a paracord carry sling for hiking & walking staff. I need my hands free for defense against dogs (pepper spray
We do not offer any sling for the sticks at this time.
Saludos desde cdmx.. felicidades. Cuanto cuesta que los manden a mexico?
how much should a walking staff weigh? when is it considered too heavy??

Beautiful sticks, good video thanks.
Oh so beautiful! 🚶
I think the hickory without the twist suits me, thank you
Any chance the fitness walker will be stocked on Amazon again?
Sir do you sell these to the UK?
i believe the best(cheapest) way would be to look on Amazon UK for our sticks.
That background noise/music is so ANNOYING!!!
a stick needs to be 36 inch and be a bone cruncher one stick for live xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
No dogwood? im out...
We actually have dogwood too. Just search for it on our website.
