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

      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!

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

      @@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!

    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

    Which one should I go with? the bigger 40-36 or the smaller 32-29 for a general purpose do it all tripod and if you can only have one?

      @TheLanden11 hey there! I think I would got with one of the smaller ones for a general purpose tripod. The larger ones are overkill for a lot of applications. Thanks for watching!

      Are the ball head sizes the same between the four models?

    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!
