I purchased a unit 44 co mule deer tag. During the first 4 days of the hunt i couldn’t extend my tripod legs cause they were frozen shut. Had to use rocks to level tripod to glass. Not only did my legs didn’t open… the tricer BP tightening mechanism froze and my sworvski btx’s slid completely off and landed in the rocks. At night I would open up everything and leave the tripod next to the heater in hopes that they would dry out. I’m still extremely upset of loosing 4 days of my hunt not being able to glass and having my btx glass land in rocks. You guys sent me a new one of everything…not super excited and feel nervous about taking your tripod anywhere near an area that has freezing temps. Wish I could talk to an actual team member that hunted but it seems like tricer is all about AI technology. Lance

Well worth the money. If you’ve been on the fence about it just get it. You won’t be disappointed

Well built and easy to use. I purchased this because of the brand reputation and the functionality. The legs lock from top instead of bottom like most tripods. In the brush and dirt thus works very well. No more dirt to wipe off the legs before it retracts smoothly.
The pan head also works well. I wanted this style rather than the ball, again to keep the dirt and dust out of the mechanism. This pan head is like having sealed system for horizontal and vertical movement and the adjustment tension hold the large spotting scope in place with ease.
Highly recommend this sysyem.
