Cheapest, lightest tripod for binos

[Ucsdryder]

Before stepping up to a spotter I want to try my binos on a tripod using the outdoorsman’s stud. Thoughts on a lightweight, cheap tripod and pan head combo?

i have this arriving any day after using a more robust set up. If you are near the south metro area you can give it a go

Hard to beat this for seated glassing.

I use a Vortex SS-P, it weighs about 2 lbs.

We rent the ProMaster tripod if you want to try it on a hunt before you buy it. Apply 100% of your rental toward the purchase and we’ll save you some money over retail on a like-new tripod setup.

Ill second this for a "cheapest lightest" option. Every now and then they pop up on here used.

Man, the new version of the Vortex High Country has lot going for it.

I am thinking I might get away with a seated one. Which should help the total length, weight, and price.

Search Amazon, I bought a sunpak that is long enough to glass standing and only 2.5 lbs. Not great for a spotter but can work but fine for bino.

No longer available but there are similar on Amazon like neewer.

This all the way. I added a sturdier center column for cheap too:

We have great promaster kits with the SPCH20 heads and members here get 15% off. Use code TS21 or give us a call at 516-217-1000 to discuss the options

I have a backup that’s the lighter carbon Promaster that they no longer make it weighs 1.8 lbs without a head. It’s the one that S&S archery did a review on. Collapses to 17in and extends to 60in. I’ll sell it to you for $160, I’ll even throw in a Promaster ball head for you.
