[QUOTE="Willys46, post: 200347, member: 6536"] [b]Light weight = $$$$[/b] I feel for your dicusuion you hvae to make. I was stuck in the same spot you are last hunting season. First off it has to be stable..The light weight one I bought first would not hold the scope steady enough to use effectively, especially in the wind. The light weight ones that are sturdy enough were EXPENSIVE! Biogen has carbon fiber ones that I liked but could not afford. Roughly $300. The nice thing is they have a hook to add a bag of rocks to it once our set up to add weight for sturdy enough. I would look at this one very close if I had to do it over. I went with a heavy/sturdy one from NIKON. Luckly I could split the weight of the spotting scope and tripod between my brother and my self. Booth in one pack with a gun was to heavey for a all day hunt! Good luck, go try them out side at the store to see whick one will hold it steady. Willys Sorry I guess I really did not answere your question. Just wanted you to have some food for thought. [/QUOTE]
