From: pporche

a sheperd carried two things, a staff and a rod. the staff was about as tall as the shepherd with a curved end. the rod was a stick about two feet long. the curved end of the staff was used to retrieve a sheep if it had fallen in a ditch for instance. the rod was used to keep the sheep in place by gently prodding the sheep back in place. david wrote speaking of god: thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
