Looking for best lightweight backpack tripod

Recommended Posts

So I lucked out and drew a sheep tag in CO.  Looks to be a ball buster of a hunt.  I currently run a Sirui with a fluid gitzo head.  It’s actually pretty light but haven’t weighed it.  To cut down on weight a bit I was thinking I could get by with a tripod that’s only 35-45” extended and just always glass sitting down (I mostly do anyway but my current tripod allows me to glass standing).  I’ve got an angled spotter so that should get me down even more.  Any thoughts on the best and lightest sit down size tripod?

How high are you expecting to hunt? Above tree line and you can glass sitting down all youd like. Too light and wind will be a problem. Are you gonna take a spotter to count rings? Will a ultra lite tripod hold a heavy spotter in the wind?
