No let's not. People will start off mildly, but as the popularity of the sub rises, you will get chumps chopping down trees to make the perfect stick.
Then you get the lathe guys muddying the rules of the competition, and then the sub becomes either a pinewood derby stick contest (with permitted parts), or a how-to-make-a-batting-club bonanza.
No, I'm out. closes curtains
Where is the stick ? I only see a sword
Stick at it, you'll see it
You talking about that lightsaber?
That's a katana, and that's a hill I'm willing to have lunch on.
Ugh unsolicited stick pics 😮💨
It's nice though lol
Hey I’ve got a question for you: what’s brown and sticky?

A STICK 🤣
It's a good stick. Not as good as the one I saw on the Internet recently that had a nearly perfect guard and hilt like a sword, but still pretty awesome.
For the people that want to ban sticks here: please don't take away my joy!
Not as good as mine.
We should make a stick enthusiast community. I can if no one else wants to.
It's pretty good, but the thumb guard is an issue here
Also lack of secondary grip take it down a little
Solid 7 stick
Could use a bit more girth and gnarl
Sorry mate but I have to give it a 6 because the nubs would dig into your hand when walking. A bit of whittling would take it up to an 8 tho
I like the nubs, they're beautifully regular and antislippery.
Clearly not a hiker then, we are experienced in this type of stuff 😀
Yeah, I'm more of a 'waving my stick in the air, cutting nettles with it and showing others how cool the stick is' kind of person.
What's that, about 3/4" at the top? Seems sturdy, reliable. It could use some decorating, maybe a feather or rounded-off handle. Nice and straight too, not too rigid but not too curved up... I'd give this stick a 7.2 out of a maximum possible score of 10.
Everyone is over rating this, low to mid 7/10 is accurate. It's a very nice stick but far from a 10/10. I guess there is personal preference, but there's a real 10/10 out there for everyone that I hope you guys get to experience one day. I had a solid 9/10 stick that I used hiking for years.
I've never had a stick as good tbh.
Might be too sticky for some.
And too woody for others… stupid sticks with way too much wood, if you ask me.
Brother, that's a solid 10
Very nice stick. You even trimmed off the brush so it looks bigger.
It’s better than bacon.
Woah, woah. Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. I mean it's certainly an excellent stick, but bacon? I mean c'mon now.
Although having said that, if offered bacon or this stick it's hard to say which direction I'd go.
I'd say it's a 6. Nice and straight with very little taper. Those little branch nubbins would make it suck to hold at the end, and the bark needs to be stripped off across the entire thing. I'd take a belt sander to it and clean it up some
On the scale of sticks that are worthy of being picked up: 6
7/10. Good form, but that wet side makes me worry it could be weakened by rot.
With evidence of a successful truck smack test, I’d be open to raising my rating.
TRUNK smack. I hate autocorrect
That, my dude, is an impressive stick.
Good stick
A solid 8.
Hang on let me bring in a stick expert...
(Someone please get the reference so I don't look like a total idiot)
Yesyes stick cat I remember
Rock?
Nice stick
That's a 9/10 stick you got there buddy, would def take it hiking.
i was gonna say 6 at the first pic, but the second pic makes me think it's an 8! nice taper, nice size, i like how the little nubs add visual interest.
Perfect score of 5/7, I quite like it.
Scrolled too far to upvote this one.
The little pokey bits make me uncomfortable.
7 out of 10. 9 with rice.
Its very straight. And knotty. I imagine its very strong! Very good. I give it a 9/10. I wonder what a perfect stick looks like, maybe this is it, but I'm not confident enough to give it a 10.
An excellent stick, my friend
I'd give it a 7. Would be higher if it was longer.
Looks like it's got some heft to it. That'll definitely do the job. 8/10
It's hard to judge a stick without feeling it's heft but from looks alone I give it a 6 maybe. Above average for shape and length but the bark quality (aesthetically) and the lumps really take from its value.
At another glance I can tell this stick was recently living and probably quite solid as such. I'll raise it to 7/10
8/10
8/10. I would definitely find a use for this stick on an adventure.
Id say 8/10
Its very long and massive therefore too big for whooping ass as it would put too much strain on wrist. Troy's Nana would whoop you for even showing her such a switch.
Straight. Slick. Can become a sword. 10/10
Visually it is exceptional, but I fear it is too dry and thin to make an effective walking stick or tool handle. Maybe for smaller hand tools like a screwdriver.
You gotta tie a wiffle ball on top to make a badass wizard staff. Then it will be 10/10.
9/10
Lightsaber material there 👍👍👍.
It's a goodun but I'd nip off those sharp bits up at the top for ease of handling
8 of 10 but I could be persuaded to go up to 9
Slight bendy, like my penis.
I like it.
It appears a bit brittle, more girth at the bottom may be necessary if used for weight bearing activities 🤔
0/10 got switched with..
I'd give it a 7. Pretty straight, but no good handles to use it as a gun or cross guard to use it as a sword. It'd work as a lightsaber though. But the thickness and heft is nice.
9/10
Can we see the pup who carries that stick while walking awkwardly because it is too long?
10/10, would stick
Without any reference it might as well be a twig. What’s the upper, middle and lower circumference or diameter in mm?
That's a solid 8/8, bud.
Length
This is not the stick I want to see. Post the other stick!!
4 - I’ve seen better and there’s not even a banana for context.
I see a light saber
Need to trim the knobs off, but otherwise, terrific stick for sword fighting
At least an 8. It could be longer but a solid stick.
It feels good to see my hunch rating of 8 is right on par with the consensus here.
For me it's got great shape and is a good size, the uncanny straightness of it is really cool, but serves to limit it's potential ceiling for ratings. It can't specialize in anything to push it to the top of the ratings.
+9 for straightness. How often do you see a stick that straight? Not often at all.
I guess it's okay. Kinda lumpy, but that's not a bad thing.
6 out of 10....but maybe 9 out of 10 if it turns out to be a good beatin'stick
Good stick pic. It's so long 😳
"This is my stick. There are many like it, but this one is mine..."
On my uneducated guess 42/10
9.5/10
That is a very nice stick, although I prefer shorter and girthier. That is however a solid 8 from me.
We should ban stick pics on this platform.
Awh, I like stick pics. The girthier, the better...
That's a damn good stick
Pros:
Cons:
In conclusion, solid 8/10. Good stick
I think this would make for a pretty fine walking stick if you ask me, doubles as a bush clearing stick when needed
This guy sticks
We should have ratemystick community.
Absolutely.
hopefully the idea sticks
It would be a good way for us to branch out.

I asked my child, an expert in this field, and he gives it a one trillion out of ten.
Length 10/10 Girth 9/10 Smoothnes 6/10
I like a smooth stick. This is a good stick. I wish it didn't have jagged edges. But it sure is a trekking buddy. 8/10
Lovely stick 9/10 might even be a 10/10 but I couldn't quite visualise the length.
Brown and sticky, 10/10
Would give 7, but it appears wet on one side so solid 6.5.
According to this guide, it's pretty good.
It's pretty good, but the thumb guard is an issue here
Also lack of secondary grip take it down a little
Solid 7 stick

What do you want to do with the stick?
Like, you know, stick stuff.
That is a vast field of science.
Elbows too pointy 2/10, would not bang
You got a ten from all 3 of my boys.
On the scale of all sticks: 9
