As an avid back country hunter, light weight gear is always a priority. I switched out my old aluminum tripod to the Tricer- BC tripod, which saved my back from carrying an extra 25 ounces. It's literally half the weight, just as sturdy, and much more versatile for use in steep country due to the kick out legs. I'm very satisfied with my purchase and would definitely recommend it to hunters looking for a light weight tripod that is stout enough to handle large optics.
The BP tripod head is absolutely the best tripod head I've ever used. I am willing to carry a little extra weight to have a smooth fluid head to glass and video with, however with the Tricer BP I don't have to. The knobs to adjust the tension and lock down the horizontal and vertical movements are easy to use with and without gloves. They stay exactly where you set them without any creep or movement regardless of the weight of optic being used. The simple yet extremely strong arca swiss clamp is super easy to use and has shown no sign of movement on anything I've thrown on it from my 10's to my 95 spotter. The head itself is extremely strong and after many shots with the 300 RUM off the BP and GC I've seen no weak points. Given the weight and silky smooth operation combined with the bullet proof construction, complete no brainer. Tricer will be the name in my pack day in and day out.
