[QUOTE="LaHunter, post: 1403182, member: 54963"] My setup is the Promaster 525 carbon fiber tripod. It weighs about 2 lbs without a head and packs down to about 18". It has twist locks on the legs. I've used it for the past 5 years mule deer hunting in WY and have been happy with it. I do 95% of my glassing while sitting, so it's great for me. It is not ideal for standing. I currently have the Surui VA-5 fluid head on it and this is an outstanding head. My spotter is a Swaro 65 mm spotter, and the tripod/head combo are plenty stable for this size spotter. Slik tripods get good reviews also, they seem very similar to the Promaster. I think Slik makes tripods with both twist locks and flip locks, but not 100% sure. Good Luck [/QUOTE]
