Tripods and such

[A-Tip]

Hi all, im looking at getting a tripod and i dont have much experience with tripods at all, other then the Bog Deathgrip. All though i didnt mind it, i would need to switch out the head for the ball head. The plan for a tripod for me would be to run about a 15 pound rig for thermal hunting, in 22-250 AI. Any recommendations, advice, or things i should look for when getting a tripod? Thanks all!

It’s on sale for $129 right now. I definitely recommend it. For a budget conscious option, it’s great.

Have you shot off a tripod before?
How far will you be carrying it?
Standing?
Sitting?
Will you put ARCA on your rifle forend?
Do you want to shoot directly off the tripod or off a bag on the tripod?

Are you going to be shooting from standing, or from kneeling/sitting? That will have a big impact on what you need.

I'm selling a few tripods if you want to take a look, but happy to offer advice even if you don't want one of these.

WTS - Lightweight carbon fiber tripods and pan heads / ball heads

Selling a few tripods that I have sitting around. These have only been used indoors so far and not been taken out in the field. All are lightweight carbon fiber and would be good hunting setups. New/used as listed in each description. Buyer pays shipping. I'm also selling a bunch of other gear...

I have shot off of a tripod before.
I will be carrying it between 1-150 yards.
99% standing.
Might add arca, idk yet, gotta find a tripod first.
Directly off the tripod, im used to a bog deathgrip with hog saddle.

Its going to be with a thermal rig

Get a 2 section tripod with Inverted legs. Very stable and easy to adjust setting up or on the go because the adjustment is always within reach.

Use a plate with bag on top like this for quick adjustment and easy tracking of moving animals. (I make it and it is excellent for quick engagements.)
