Great set ups and thanks for sharing. At least we all can be in the ball park as to which tripod to purchase. It is time for me to upgrade. I had a lower quality Silk tripod but it has busted at certain points due to hunting hard.

Again, great tips on set ups[up][up]

GG and HighGuy, what do you think of Manfrotto 190XWNB Wilderness Tripod Kit
with Manfrotto 128RC Pan Head. I know the legs are great but what about this fluid head?

Your feedback is appreciated.

Thanks,

GG, I found one:D I know noticed the 701 is more $$$ but for what I am filming I would think that kit is plenty. Thanks for the response.[up][up][up]

Thanks Mike for the info. I just ordered the Manfrotto 190XWNB Wilderness Tripod Kit that comes with the 128 fluid head. So I will use that and look to the 701 if I was to find it not smooth enough. Again, for just recording hunts for friends and family I think it might be enough but if not I would look at the 701.

Thanks again for the advise[up][up]

Not mine yet. I filmed a couple of buddies and the footage came out great. Actually the last hunt we had we had to set up quickly since the birds were on top of us. I was on the edge of a hedgerow and the birds came walking in front of me at 12 paces. I panned real slow as they were in front of me and they never saw me. It was cool[up]

Question, I just recieved my 190XWNB Wilderness Tripod Kit, which is really cool like you said GG. Do you guys leave on the rubber feet or change them out for the srew out spike feet?

Thanks,

Okay, thanks for the advise. I am trying to think when might you use the spike. I have never used spikes in the filed?
