Spotting scope tripod, fluid head and set of bino's

[renello]

Upgrade time. Looking at Meopta 80 HD angled. Need advice on tripod and fluid head. Thinking Slik Pro CF 634. As for Bino's have not decided for sure. Thinking 10 power in $700 to $1000 range. Antelope and mule deer and in future more antelope mule deer and elk hunting. Will need some type of phone adaptor. marcupial bino pouch. adaptors for tripod etc. Would love advice and some good ideas. Thanks in advance!

Slik Tripods are very nice.
A solid fluid head is the sirui VA5.
Phoneskope adapter and a case for your phone model.
Outdoorsman Bino adapter and stud for whatever binos you choose.

The best binos I've had in the $700-$1000 range were used Zeiss Victory T* FL. I'd personally take great used glass over mediocre new glass happily.

better hit up Schmalts on here for prices on Meoptas, and for that price point you just as well go with the Meostar binos too. Or like SnowyMountaineer said above be patient and find a good deal on a used pair.

Awesome, I am fine with a used pair, just not sure where to look. I suppose e-bay. Thanks guys.

Here is another vote for the Sirui VA5 as a good fluid head. It is very smooth.
