Tricer USA offers a range of lightweight and sturdy tripods and pan heads that are ideal for backcountry glassing.
The Tricer-LP Pan Head is the lightest, smoothest, and quite possibly the best backcountry pan head ever, weighing only 4.5 ounces. It features an Arca-Swiss plate, carbon fiber rubber over molded handle, 3/8-16 threads to fit all standard tripods, and a money-back guarantee.
The Tricer AD Tripod weighs 33 oz with the 16″ center column and 32 oz with the 4″ center column, making it perfect for any hunting situation from shooting to glassing. When paired with the Tricer LP Pan Head, the entire system weighs approximately 37 ounces.
The Tricer BC Tripod is another great option for hunters looking for an ultralight tripod built specifically for hunting. It weighs only 27 oz with the 16″ center column and 26.6 oz with the 4″ center column, making it perfect for any hunting situation from shooting to glassing. The BC tripod features a 9” center column with hang hook or 4” center post for shooting prone or saving weight, a maximum height of 40″, and a collapsed width that is the same width as a Nalgene bottle. It also features 1/4″ twist locks and a 1/4-20 or 3/8-16 reversible stud to mount your tripod head. When paired with the Tricer LP Pan Head, the entire system weighs approximately 31 ounces. There are lighter tripods but not lighter and sturdier.
Both tripods have the heavy leg down, unlike traditional camera tripods, giving it unmatched stability.
In summary, the Tricer-LP Pan Head is light and smooth, while the Tricer AD Tripod is perfect for any hunting situation from shooting to glassing. The Tricer BC Tripod is another great option for hunters looking for an ultralight tripod built specifically for hunting.
