What initially caught my eye about this head was how lightweight it was. I was skeptical but wanted to give it a try. Anywhere I can cut weight in the backpack, I will. I used the LP head all last season on a variety of hunts from August through December. At the end of the season, I noticed that the handle had developed a crack in the carbon fiber. After reaching out on Instagram, I emailed their customer support, and with no questions asked, they replaced my whole head. When companies operate like this, they create customers for life. The head itself is able to easily handle 85mm spotting scopes, and I had no issues with the fluidity. I would easily spend the money again and recommend this head to any serious backcountry hunter. The better you can glass, the more animals you will see, and Tricer gives you that ability.
