lightweight hunting tripod

[Bountyhunter]

Looking for recommendations on lightweight ( 3 lbs max) tripod with head for glassing and shooting off.

Wiser or tricer pan heads… and I have a slick 634 that I like. I believe both above companies make or put their stickers on lightweight tripods as well. RRS if you have 1$k burning a hole in your pocket

Shameless plug for Cameraland, have bought several things from them. They are great!

I have been pretty happy with a Leofoto tripod I bought. I use it double duty for glassing and shooting,. They have tons of options with varying weight and heights. While most prefer pan heads, I am an anomaly in that I prefer a ball head on tripods that I plan on shooting off of.

Have you considered a Spartan? You get to drop the trekking piles as well as use it for a shooting platform.

A 3 pound tripod to shoot off?
I can see me breaking it the first time in the field.

Nope that won't happen for sure. You can hang a few hundred pounds of a good carbon tripod. Worth a look at if weight is the number 1 concern.

That's pretty impressive!
