Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Backpack Hunting Searching for a tripod

Heading to Montana next month (hopefully) for a DIY bear hunt. Any recommendations on a tripod for a spotting scope. Trying out an Athlon Ares 15-45 x 60 (which hopefully arrives in time). I’m getting analysis paralysis from researching. I’d like to have first hand info from guys that actually use this stuff for backpack hunting. Thanks
