Title: What’s everyone’s favorite hunting tripod?
Post by: jshay on November 09, 2019, 06:27:35 PM: I’m looking to buy a new tripod soon and was wondering what everyone’s go to is? Looking for something that’s not too heavy that I can throw on my pack when needed but still steady with my spotting scope/Binos. Thanks Jake

Everything is a compromise

Post by: OltHunter on November 11, 2019, 03:37:55 PM: Promaster XC-M 525c for me and recommended. I ran the Slik pro cf 634 and had a leg break on me. Probably a one off as I've heard great things about them. But they aren't rated for as much weight as the Promaster is and I can mount a rifle to it. Slik, I'd stick to binos and spotters.
