I've never used a tripod as I've been slowly building my gear as I can afford it and a tripod seemed like a want not a necessity. Everything I've read sounds like it is a valuable piece of weight to carry and will add to my abilities. I think I've landed on purchasing a tripod from Outdoorsman and can't decide between the standard and the compact length. I'm solely a backpack hunter at this point so weight matters. I'm 6'1" and foresee myself using this from a seated postion on the ground while glasing. I also would like to be able to use it as a rest while kneeling or sitting if/when the opportunity presents itself. I've called and spoke with Outdoorsman and was told they didn't really see the value/usefullness of the compact (which surpised me) but in my mind the added 12oz isn't negligible. Does anyone have any experience they can share? Thanks
