I am leaning towards the outdoorsmans medium tripod package that comes with the Pan Head and oudoorsmans rifle rest. But didn't know if anyone is using the Swaro tripod? I just picked up a Swaro 65 HD ATS and need the tripod now. I know Karl you told me to buy the tripod first but I got too good of a deal on the glass.

You can save money by doing research. A lot of the Swarovski tripods are actually Manfrotto tripods rebranded.

Thanks, somewhat new to the spotters. I think I am going go with the Outdoorsmans.

Go outdoorsmans and never ever look back. Heavy price tag but absolutely worth every single penny.

I have a Swarovski tripod that I use with my STS 80. It's awesome and steady. But only use it if I'm glassing for antelope in WY or short hikes, or I'm close to the truck. It's a heavy sucker and would get heavy after awhile.

Outdoorsman.......without a doubt. I should add that I have never used the Swarovski tripod so I will not comment on it. Again, outdoorsman..

I picked up a recommended manfrotta head and the thing has like a solid lemon-sized hunk of steel for the head. wth ? surprised its not hollow or of something lighter. Im sure it helps steady it but counting ounces theres quite a few there.
