Like you said, I would love to see a center column that snaps in, would buy one tomorrow.

[@BackwoodsPursuit]

Agreed! That quick release feature is awesome, so it would be pretty easy to make a center column option...that would be awesome! Thanks for watching!

[@tonesmith909]

Crucial feature missing, Id hate running a spotting scope on that with no center column.

[@BackwoodsPursuit]

@@tonesmith909 agreed....a center column would be awesome. However I do understand the reasoning for not having one as most true shooting tripods (like these) don't because the center column reduces the stability. I think it would still be a great option to add on through the quick change system though. Thanks for watching!

[@TMS5100]

you really want slow motion controls for spotting scopes. ball heads are annoying.

[@BackwoodsPursuit]

Yeah, I definitely prefer fluid pan heads for spotting scopes if weight isn't a concern. Thanks for watching!

[@C42WatChe42C]

Worth triple the price of a BOG tripod? This is a legitimate question, I have used a bog tripod and was impressed at the stability even with the lack of a ball head. Using the legs to level your rifle instead of the ball head is the only difference I can see. So I'm just left scratching my head wondering if the extra 200-350 dollars really worth it

@C42WatChe42C hey there! I can't say that I've used a Bog Pod, so.I can't say for sure. Thanks for watching though!

[@C42WatChe42C]

What is the height of just the tripod without the head

[@BackwoodsPursuit]

Hey there! I'd have to go measure each of them...which one are you asking about?

[@Thedogpound1997]

The 40 that would be awesome if you would. I’m 6’5” barefoot and want to buy once and cry once

[@BackwoodsPursuit]

@Thedogpound1997 hey! Just pulled it out and it's just under 6ft without the head. Thanks!

[@Thedogpound1997]

Ok I’m buying one!!!! Than you 👍👍👌👌

[@BackwoodsPursuit]

@@Thedogpound1997 you bet! Glad to help!
