I can only afford the low grade truck stop stuff.

The 12’s were good sitting/supported, but those quick unsupported looks while winded kicked my ass.

Those evil thoughts have crossed my mind. I swore off Swaros, but one never knows with me.

Go to a higher grade crack. Less shakes. More hallucinations. Makes for a good hunt as you get to "see" a lot.
My reason for moving away from the tripod had way more to do with it tweaking my back at all kinds of weird angles than anything else. The rock solid image was nice, but I can hold them plenty steady enough without it, especially when I brack my elbows on my knees. Plus, it is less weight and stuff to keep track of, less time getting set up to glass, etc. Way mo better now, overall.

Suck it.
