I’ll echo the binos on a tripod. I didn’t believe it would make a big difference and thought that it would just be extra weight on my pack. How wrong I was!
I use an Alite Mayfly to sit in, behind my Zeiss 10x42 HTs, and have them mounted on a Brunton carbon tripod with a Leica pan head. I use a DIY bino mount that doubles as rifle rest. The tripod will allow me to stand if needed as well.
Someday I will bite the bullet and get an Outdoorsmans stud put on my binos and maybe spend the extra coin for a lighter tripod, but those are secondary thoughts after running this setup for a couple years now.
I’ve found that there is no need for a spotter, but am intrigued with seeing what a BTX setup could do. There always has to be something to day dream about.
