    Thanks Robby! We'll also be at the hunt expo next month in SLC, Mule Deer Days in Rock Springs in March, and a few other shows if you want to come handle some of these products and see what you think. Get entered in the giveaway!

    New Sponsor, Long time Lurker

    Hey Rokslide, I've been a member here for a long time and quietly utilize a lot of your recommendations. I live in western Wyoming, love gear and hunting mule deer and the occasional elk and antelope, fly fishing etc. I own a retail shop in Afton called Altitude Outdoors, and recently started a...

    MTN HNTR Swift TS Carbon Fiber Tripod

    Hey, not sure if you have any more questions on this tripod. This is our latest release and is my favorite all-around tripod. Great stability in a lightweight package that I haven't found a rival for (so we made it). I used this primarily all of last summer and fall. I think you'll like it...

    Ultralight Tripods, By Matt Cashell

    Thanks for including the MTN SS and Nano Pro in your review. Our goal with the MTN SS kit was to create fluid head tripod system that was under 2 pounds that was stable and usable for hunters. Happy to answer any questions about the MTN SS, the Nano Pro Head, or our new Swift TS (standing...

    Ulanzi I 190

    BTW, the MTN HNTR head is not a smallrig, there are a few others who are like the Alpyn, MUTNT, and a few others. Just a clarification, similar form factor and size, but you'll notice some significant differences with an optic on top of these heads.

    Tricer LP or MTN HNTR tripod head

    Hey guys, first off, sorry for the slow reply. I've had a chance to test quite a few different heads, and I remembered that I needed to be accountable here for that. A few have asked about the Nano Pro head vs some of the other heads on the market. The Nano pro is different internally, and...

    Tricer LP or MTN HNTR tripod head

    We haven't published a weight capacity yet. We're still doing some testing. I think we'll land somewhere right around 6.8 lbs. I've been doing some testing shooting my rifle off of it. The rifle weighs 8 lbs 9 oz. Either way, it will handle the Kowa 99 just fine.

    Tricer LP or MTN HNTR tripod head

    I guess that could have been taken that way. I should say that we made some specific changes to the samples we received and I don't know if our sample is a magicline. We adjusted the tension and knobs on our unit to stabilize larger optics. I believe the fluid cartridge was adjusted to...

    Tricer LP or MTN HNTR tripod head

    I think you're wanting to know the diference between the nano pro and the others, and I honestly coudn't tell you exactly what the differences are because we didn't start with a base model. I gave them a list of what I wanted to see in a tripod head and they produced a product for us. We went...

    Tricer LP or MTN HNTR tripod head

    One more thing...It's easy to look at specific parts of these products and I think it's important to realize that many big manufacturers are already making parts and have dialed in a lot of pieces and know what works. We selected several options to build this head vs. other options that were...

    Tricer LP or MTN HNTR tripod head

    I'm happy to speak to that, and provide some information about the process and how this head came together. I've ran a retail shop for the past 7 years, and hand pick and test the gear that we sell. I prefer fluid heads and was a put off by the weight and felt like it might be possible to build...

    Tricer LP or MTN HNTR tripod head

    Thanks for the feedback, I'm interested in getting a lot of feedback over the next few weeks as guys start using the tripod head. It does seem pretty stiff when it isn't mounted on a tripod. I've had a few guys talk about it springing back up when tilted. I've experienced this on a lot of fluid...

    Tricer LP or MTN HNTR tripod head

    Hey guys, this is Brad Carter. I own MTN HNTR. The Nano Pro is not a rebranded small-rig. I know they are similar sized, but there are quite a few differences if you look closely. The profile is quite different, shorter handle, etc. I actually didn't know about the small rig until the final...
