Which tripod and head are you using?
Depends on the hunt. If I'm backpack hunting, I carry a Gitzo tripod with a ball head mostly. Sometimes I use the Outdoorsmans panhead and sometimes I use the Spartan Davros head.
If the hunt is truck or ATV-based, I'll carry my Vortex Radian tripod and ball head. The buck in the photo was shot using my brother's Innorel tripod with RRS Anvil 30 head because he already had it set up with his spotter so I just grabbed it from him instead of getting mine out.
